These guys are complete life savers.

After a biking accident involving a taxi, I was left scrambling trying to understand the no-fault insurance system and medical bills. It was a nightmare until Flanzig and his team took over. Daniel himself is real--he always answered tho phone and responded promptly to my concerning emails. He ex...plained everything to me in layman language I could understand and made the process feel seamless and easy. His team were always on point--updating me, answering my questions, explaining the ABCs of the legal world to me. I cannot thank them enough. In the end, they took what would have been a disaster and literally a whole other full time job to take care of myself and absolved me of the burden. I am endlessly in their debt for taking care of me and helping me through it all. With their legal expertise, I was given a hefty settlement. And on top of that, the firm adjusted the expenses they accrued on the case so that they took home less and I could take home more. What can you say to that!!? The most human of lawyers I have ever fallen upon. :)

The Firm that Delivers More than Promised!

When I was hit by a car on July 15th, 2019, I had no clue what to do. My friend told me about Flanzig and Flanzig personal injury firm, which specializes in accidents involving cyclists. Upon contact, I was guaranteed that everything would be taken care of...and they delivered what they had promised.... All in all, I highly recommend this firm to anyone who is looking for professional help in their matter.

Difficult case settled

I thought I would receive nothing in compensation for my injuries but Mr. Flanzig proved otherwise. While riding my bike a car suddenly took a turn in front of me. In order to avoid hitting the front of the car and then going up and over the windshield I desperately jammed on the brakes. The fro...nt wheel locked up and I flipped over, landing with full force on my elbow. Fortunately, the car stopped just short of impact. My elbow had eight fractures, and I had other, lesser, injuries. I had to have emergency surgery to install a plate and pins. Three days in the hospital. Mr. Flanzing advised that this case would would be difficult because the driver hadn't actually hit me but was confident the suit would be successful. He gave advice on the No Fault claim process. He ushered me through the deposition. Later, he filed for a summary judgement, which was unsuccessful. We then went to mediation and the lawsuit was settled. I feel the settlement amount was perfectly aligned with the extent of the injuries and my permanent pain and mobility limitations. This whole process took only a year and a half. Mr. Flanzig and his staff were always available and responded to all my queries quite quickly. He always gave me updates on the progress and how the system works.

Simply the best.

Ok- if you're reading this, I'm guessing you're looking for a great lawyer because you've been hit by a car. A few years ago, I was exactly in your position (and it hurt a lot!) Beyond the physical pain, it was the extreme difficulty in finding justice and making it through a system of healthcare... and insurance that is baffling which gave me anxiety and uncertainty about my future. I quickly discovered that there were all manner of lawyers who claim expertise in a field they don't specialize in, who want to use your trauma to make a payday. Daniel Flanzig is the complete opposite of this- he genuinely understands your position and is the most knowledgeable expert on NYC bike law you'll find. I had spoken to a few other lawyers and had heard the typical stuff about being a priority for their firm, but Daniel did more than tell me- he showed me how much he cared by helping me put my life back together. His assistance in navigating the system and making sure all my paperwork was in order was invaluable- he put me at ease and made me feel like I was in safe hands. His expertise and willingness to work hard for your case is unparalleled- I count myself incredibly fortunate that I came across his firm in my research. I'm only posting this because he's really helped me put my life back on track and I hope he can do the same for you too. I couldn't recommend him enough.

Dans the Man!

I found Daniel’s firm a day after my accident, sitting in the hospital bed with a fractured foot, post-op leg, and another surgery planned. Without insurance I had no idea how all of expenses were going to be covered. I sent a brief e-mail to Daniel and he replied right away, the next day he had some...one pick up the police report from the precinct and has navigated me through the claims process since. He explained to me that my hospital bills would be covered and also has worked to get me a settlement. I don’t know where I’d be without Daniel and his assistant Rina’s help, thank you guys!
