This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

The team at Wilborn Law could not have been more knowledgeable, professional, competent, and committed to my interest.

Seven months ago, I was struck by a motorist while riding in the bike lane near my home. I sustained injuries including a broken left knee and a broken left hand. The driver who hit me had the minimum liability insurance required by the state of SC. The bulk of my medical expenses then passed to my... insurance to pay. The attorney and staff at Wilborn Law worked diligently for several months to ensure that the hospital accepted my insurance, and that my insurance covered the medical expenses I incurred because of the accident, leaving me with no medical debt. The team at Wilborn Law could not have been more knowledgeable, professional, competent, and committed to my interest. Seven months later I have recovered, have a new bike, and am riding again, thanks in no small part to the folks at Wilborn Law.

Thank you Bike Law!

After my accident 6 people told me to call Rachael at Bike Law, from the first phone call I felt heard and supported and knew that she and Peter would fight for me as if it were their crash. They got me a huge settlement and made me feel like a friend along the way. I hope I never have to call them a...gain but if anyone I know ever needs a bike lawyer there is no team that is better than theirs!

Best legal team ever in a bike accident!!!!

Rachael and Peter were the best in the worst situation. Rachael's communication was so fast and thorough. I never had an unanswered question or wondered what was going on with my case. It only took a few months to resolve and Bike Law got me the total amount of the driver's insurance and my own. It e...nded up being more than 10 times the amount of my medical bills and the full amount of the driver's property damage insurance limit, $25,000.00. Rachael is the kindest and made me feel supported and heard the whole time, there was never a time when I was not so grateful I called her. I spoke to two other lawyers before Bike Law and they were rude and told me I didn't even have a case!!!

This Great Compassionate Law Firm!

Our son was involved in a terrible accident in September 2024. We were recommended this law firm as a top advocate for his particular accident. While working with Rachael M. we found her to be extremely compassionate as she guided us through the many challenges we were facing. Although the accident w...as ultimately deemed "no fault" Racheal continued to explore every avenue to recover compensation for my son. Even as we accepted the reality that might never happen, she worked tirelessly on our behalf. Ultimately, she was able to recover at least my son’s lost wages as compensation. My son was out of work for several months so this was a tremendous relief for him, and for us. We love you Rachael, and thank you!

10/ 10 recommend!

I can’t say enough great things about working with Wilborn Law. I was involved in a bike accident in October 2021, which resulted in a TBI/other injuries. A friend of mine connected me with Rachael, and she’s the one of the KINDEST and most empathetic people I’ve met. Shortly after I started work...ing with Peter, too, and it struck me how passionate they both were about what they do, how intelligent and knowledgeable they are, but most importantly, how much they care for the people they represent. 10/10 humans who quickly felt like they became family after one of the worst days of my life. They were extremely professional- they were proactive in keeping me updated on the status of my case, managing my expectations, and in answering the multiple questions I feel I always had. I could feel how much they cared- it was a long process, but there’s nobody else I would have wanted to navigate it with! Thank you Wilborn Law and Bike Law!

"Peter is a leader in the area of personal injury law. There is probably no lawyer anywhere in the country who has thought more about, or been more successful on behalf of, injured cyclists. If I needed a lawyer on a injury claim in his area I would call on Peter. I endorse him without any reservation. Heck, I would send my mom to him if she needed a lawyer."
