Visiting or on Holiday in New York and Involved in a Bike Crash?
Tourist involved in a Bike Crash or Bike Collision in New York City?
A great way to see New York is by Bike. By utilizing a rental bike from a company such as "Bike and Roll" or a Citi-Bike, visitors are able to sight see around the City at their own pace and enjoy the excitement of NY, outside of the confines of a tour bus.
If new to riding in the New York area, you may find that cycling here offers challenges that riders normally do not face in other cities. New York is a great place to ride, but it can also be difficult, and sometimes dangerous. It is even more dangerous to those who are not familiar with the streets and culture of New York.
If you are visiting in New York and involved in a serious crash or collision, we can help. The fact that you reside outside of New York, or even another Country, does not limit your ability to bring a claim if you are involved in a crash. Many of our clients reside outside of the State, or abroad. Some are tourists visiting New York, while others had lived in New York at the time of the crash and now have returned home.
Whatever the circumstance, we can help:

- Answers about getting your medical bills paid and other reimbursement can be found by clicking here
Accidents while on holiday can have a devastating impact because they occur at a time which you are often far from home and unfamiliar with local rules. These can include a crash with a car, taxi, bus, or a crash or collision as a result of a negligent or dangerous street condition.
If this occurs, Flanzig and Flanzig can guide you through the process of making a claim and obtaining the compensation you deserve. Special rules guide claims under package holidays. Certain rules and regulations also protect consumers against the negligence and malfeasance of tour operators and holiday companies. If you need to take time off of work, have medical bills, or sustained pain and suffering, we can help you make a recovery for the costs and injuries you have suffered.
If you have been injured while cycling in New York on your visit call or e-mail us for assistance.

"Phenomenal Team!"The team here is nothing short of phenomenal. I reached out about my case on a Sunday afternoon from the hospital and we spoke before the evening was over. Since then, they have been happy to answer any question I have, and walked me through the entire process from handling my no-fault insurance to ultimately getting a settlement offer.
To any cyclist in search of a lawyer who understands the challenges of biking in this city, look no further than Daniel and his team.- Conor -

Cathy Flanzig guided me through the process of bringing a suit against the company that owned the truck and the driver.

"Supported me since DAY ONE of my 2.5 year journey!"Daniel Flanzig was with me on DAY ONE of my 2.5 year journey through the fractured legal system following a serious bicycle accident which left me with two broken wrists. The thirteen day hospital stay included surgeries on both, titanium plates implanted on both, and a severe challenge to my mental health and way of life. Unfortunately, I needed two
more surgeries on the significantly more damaged right wrist. Dan navigated me through the strained New York City Medical System, still struggling in late 2021 from the wrath of COVID. When the lawsuit needed to be moved to New Jersey, Dan seamlessly transferred the case to Joseph G. Hughes. Both men proved to be upstanding attorneys and outstanding human beings, emotionally invested in my traumatic, drawn-out experience, and committed to reaching the settlement deserved. After matters were resolved by Mr. Hughes, I received a call from Dan, closing this chapter of our time together, but cementing a lifelong connection filled with the utmost respect and gratitude.- Marty Keiser -
