Experienced Representation For Injured Bicyclists

Biking in New York is an excellent way to get exercise, to commute to and from work, or to simply explore the city. In many areas, however — especially in congested Manhattan — bikers are subject to constant risk of injury from cars, taxis, delivery trucks and even jaywalking pedestrians. We know what legal actions to take when personal injuries occur.

A Biker Representing Injured Bikers

Attorney Howard R. Sanders knows how dangerous New York’s streets can be. For years he has represented New Yorkers who have been seriously injured on the job, in automobile accidents, on the way to work or just going about their day. At our firm, we’ll carefully evaluate the cause of your bicycle accident to assess how to obtain the compensation you deserve.

Bike accidents attorney Howard Sanders has competed in triathlons and knows the benefits of bicycling as well as the risks. Call our Midtown office at 212-983-5151 or 800-731-9976 today to arrange a free consultation.

When Others Don’t Pay Attention, They Can Pay Your Bills

While the rules of the road apply equally to everyone who uses city streets, drivers often put bikers in extreme danger. When a taxi driver, delivery truck driver or even another biker is at fault, you may be able to recover for your injuries.

As an experienced New York bike accident attorney, Howard Sanders may be able to help you obtain compensation for:

Medical expenses
Rehabilitation costs
Lost income from prolonged work absence
Physical and mental pain and suffering

By fighting to get our clients the full financial relief they are entitled to, Howard Sanders allows them and their families to focus on recovery and rehabilitation.
