Daniel Flanzig

If you have been in a bike accident, don't try to navigate the labyrinthine NYS no-fault system by yourself. You need the high quality, responsive, transparent representation that Dan and Cathy Flanzig provide. In August of 2012 I was doored by a livery cab. I was severely injured, and had to be t...aken from the scene by an ambulance. The cab driver didn't didn't stay to talk to police. No police report was filed. After I was discharged, I had about $10,000 of medical bills, and I had to investigate this situation on my own. Since there is no official language for being doored, what I wound up interacting with is an entire bureaucracy centralized around motor vehicle to motor vehicle accidents. Every form you submit, and every person you interact with perceives your situation this way. Everything has to be altered to suit a bicycle/car accident. It was a nightmare, and without knowing my options, I tried to do it myself, and I did it wrong. I was denied no fault coverage on this basis and found myself a month into my post-accident life without medical treatment. I reached out to several other firms for help only to have them have no interest in helping me. By chance, I read an article on Gothamist about the proliferation of firms dedicated to cyclists' rights and found Flanzig and Flanzig. I wrote an angry, emotional email describing my situation at about 8pm, and before 9pm I was talking to Daniel, and about my options. It is amazing that they took me on in the first place knowing that there would be several months of paperwork involved with circumventing the mess/trap I'd walked into trying to represent myself--BEFORE any sort of settlement could be discussed in the future. That it took months to get this insurance company to even take responsibility for my medical bills is testament to their practice. In the interceding time, Daniel has counseled me every step of the way including helping me find the quality medical treatment I desperately needed, and fought for every bit of my lost wages. I know that without his and Cathy's help and the help of his team my quality of life would be a shadow of what it is today.

After being rear-ended by a car while I was riding, Flanzig and Flanzig helped me handle all of the complications in my life the accident caused. Their dedication to my case was astounding. The firm's staff is highly responsive and I never felt like I was left out of the loop. Should anyone I know ev...er find themselves in need of a lawyer I would not hesitate to put them in touch with Flanzig & Flanzig.

Following my cycling accident I contacted Daniel Flanzig. Being an avid cyclist himself, Dan naturally understood what every cyclist has to factor in while riding the roads. You will not find a more responsive attorney than Daniel - period. What seemed as weak case Daniel took to a successful settlem...ent. I hope to never need a personal injury attorney again, but if I do, Daniel Flanzig is on my speed-dial.

The Flanzig family have represented my family and I on several matters over the past 3 decades. Daniel specifically has been a trusted advisor of mine on matters including personal injury, medical malpractice, general business law as well as handling legal matters related to the estate of my parents.... While the advice may not always be what you want to hear as a claimant, it has always been sound and just. In the end, the results have always been positive. Most importantly, as a business executive who deals with legal contract matters on a daily basis, I am confident that when I am speaking with Mr. Flanzig I am dealing with an attorney with integrity and knowledge, who always has my best interests in mind.
