We don't just represent riders. We are riders.
Founder Lenore Shefman started Cyclistlaw in 2003 for one reason: injured cyclists, motorcyclists, and pedestrians were being dismissed by insurers who assumed they were at fault. Two decades later, that fight is still personal. The firm knows these crashes from the saddle out, which is why juries and insurance companies take it seriously.
