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!!!

Thankful for persistence and passion

After my husband was hit by a car while cycling the Bike Law team helped us navigate every step of the way. It was nice to talk with Rachael almost immediately after getting many recommendations. She helped us have peace during a very challenging time. She gave us confidence about the guidance we wou...ld receive. She checked in with us very regularly. She kept us updated on the progress. She is a force to be reckoned with in persistence when needed. We are extremely thankful for this team and their passion to help cyclists.

Wonderful through the long legal haul.

The Wilborn team was thorough and dedicated to explaining and to following every avenue of benefit and savings for me after I was struck by an automobile while cycling. I suffered many injuries, broken bones and brain damage. Medical bills grossly exceeded my financial resources and their team advoca...ted for me with government agencies in charge of recouping its expenditures. I highly recommend Peter Wilborn and his team. Also they communicated well and responded quickly to my questions and uncertainties. Thank you one and all for taking my case and handling it so well!

Bike Accident and Settlement

In 2021 I was hit by a car while out on a ride with my wife. Bike Law was highly recommended by other local cyclists and with good reason. I am very thankful that I reached out to Wilborn Law. Rachael was my first contact and it was clear early on that, as a cyclist, she really understood what we w...ere dealing with. Working with Peter and Rachael has been the only easy part of my crash and recovery. This entire group is kind, compassionate and determined. They are cyclists as well with a singular law focus so they really understand the reality of dealing with insurance companies and the emotional toll as well. They maintained strong communication and always kept us informed of the status of the case as well as what the process would be like. I am truly pleased with the settlement outcome and I'm grateful for their professionalism and friendship.

"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."
