Weston A. Finn

The cliché says it all, “Live to Ride, Ride to Live.” For as long as I can remember motorcycles have played a prominent role in my family; in the same way most people refer to their pets as family members, motorcycles were part of my family. Not only were the motorcycles part of my family, but the friends that were made through the shared passion for riding also became family. As a child, the majority of my parent’s friends, that are so-called “bikers,” quickly became uncles and aunts to me. Our family vacations revolved around motorcycle rallies and finding the closest Harley dealer to score a new t-shirt. My mom likes to point out that the only professional photos we had done as a family were with my father’s Harley.

As soon as I was eligible, I obtained my motorcycle license and have since traveled this country from east to west, north to south on a variety of different styles of motorcycles.

My legal education and career are driven by my desire to help the motorcycling community. To represent those that need help the most.

In 2006 prior to attending law school, my father was involved in a devastating motorcycle accident. Luckily, he survived the accident; but it wasn’t without life-altering effects. He was forced into early retirement and to this day has permanent disabilities that prohibit him from doing many of the things he previously loved; including driving a motorcycle. This hasn’t stopped him or me from continuing our lives as bikers. After his accident, we purchased a Harley Davidson Road Glide with a sidecar, so that my father could still get that true feeling of wind in his hair.

It wasn’t only my father’s life that changed due to the accident, but it also affected everyone around him. Beyond the years of assisting my father through his “recovery,” his accident was also the catalyst that propelled me into law school. As my father’s primary caregiver and personal representative, I was able to see how the work of an attorney helped tremendously. The attorney accomplished things for my father that made adjusting to his current scenario easier.

Examples of the benefits attributed to the work of our attorney (my mentor) included: fighting to have my father’s medical bills paid for, obtaining 24-hour home health aides, receiving medical advocates that coordinated appointments and handled insurance matters, and also a financial settlement with the insurance company. Without these benefits stemming from our attorney, I don’t know how my father’s life would have turned out.

I’m not telling you my story to scare you, but rather I’m telling you this because I have personally been there. To this day I still ride motorcycles. It is a feeling and a freedom that is irreplaceable. I want those who hire me to know:

I will always have your best interests in mind,
I have been there,
I will fight for you as if you were my family member, and
I exclusively represent motorcyclists.
