Highly Recommended

Daniel Flanzig was referred to me by another attorney as the preeminent bike lawyer in New York. He did not disappoint. My case was somewhat complicated and Dan was able to expertly navigate the process and reach a settlement with the other party. He knows the laws inside and out and is a tireless ad...vocate for bike safety. Daniel is extremely knowledgable, through and patient. He and his staff will always answer all questions no matter how big our small. If you've had the misfortune of being injured in a bike accident, or any other type of accident, due to another party's negligence, do not hesitate to call Flanzig and Flanzig. I give them my highest recommendation.

Excellent from Start to Finish

Dan and his team were incredible from start to finish. I was struck by a utility truck during a recreational bike ride and had to go through a complicated shoulder surgery and a long recovery. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the details of bike law and what makes it unique. They helped us ensur...e our medical bills were covered so we had no out of pocket expenses and handled every detail. He and his office were straightforward, transparent and supportive throughout the entire settlement process. We were more than happy with the result and we would highly recommend Dan and his office to anyone.

Way to GO!

Daniel Flanzig is the lawyer you want on your team. Extraordinary knowledge, expertise, and experience are some of the assets he brings to the table to start with. His knowledge, not only of bicycle law but of relevant precedent and traffic law is staggering. Equally impressive is his ability to d...eal with opposing counsel in a collegial but definitive way. He and his firecracker staff were on top of my case from “go”, and always made me feel at ease and taken care of. Best of all, he got me my entire settlement without ever having to set foot in the courtroom. He knows his law and how to practice it. Do yourself a favor and get this guy to represent you.

If you have been in a bike accident, you should call Daniel Flanzig.

A couple of years ago, I was involved in an accident while biking to work. The driver of a vehicle parked on the side of the road didn't check his mirrors before opening his door, and so when he swung the door open, it struck me and knocked me into another vehicle on the road. I fractured my hand and... eventually needed to have surgery. At the time of the accident, I did what anyone in that situation should do: I gathered information, found witnesses, snapped some photos of the scene of the accident, got a police report, and made sure to go to the hospital in an ambulance just in case I had unknowingly injured my neck, head, or back. However, I still needed to find a good lawyer to make sure that my (extensive) bills and other costs would be covered, because I have never battled an insurance company before and worried that they would try to avoid fault. I researched and spoke with multiple lawyers and decided to go with Daniel Flanzig. He understands the law inside and out and is a cyclist himself. After speaking with him, I felt like I could rest my fears about the situation and trust him to navigate me through the legal labyrinth of my case. The driver's car insurance, unsurprisingly, put up a fight and we went through a lot of BS for the next two years. Daniel and his team were always on top of everything - from my bills, court dates, prepping me for depositions, regularly updating me about what was happening, and more. The experience was nerve-wracking, but Daniel and his team instilled a sense of confidence and security in me that all was being taken care of. I'm happy to report that the case settled in my favor. If you are reading this, you have probably been in an accident or know someone who has, and you are probably trying to decide who to choose among the hundreds of lawyers out there. Do your research, but rest assured that you cannot go wrong with Daniel Flanzig and his team. They will work hard for you and take care of your situation just like they did for me. While I hope that I will not experience another accident, I know that if I do, I'll go back to Daniel without hesitation.
