Flanzig & Flanzig are extremely competent, conscientious, & concerned professionals. It was encouraging to have an attorney such as Daniel, who is so well versed in the situations that road cyclists encounter. Actually, I had two cycling accidents in a three month span and Daniel was extremely skilled in the nuances that settlement of these cases required.

I got to know Dan Flanzig via the NY Bike Coalition. He is a ubiquitous presence at bike clubs educating members on their rights, pending legislation and dos and don'ts after an accident. When I was struck by a motorist on May 17th 2017 there was no doubt in my mind who I would call. Throughout the entire legal process the firm was responsive, warm and professional and they handled every aspect of legal anxiety that came my way. Dan Flanzig is a cyclist protecting cyclists and he walks the walk. You can’t find a better firm in this field.”

Extremely helpful and very knowledgeable. This firm combines passion and experience to make them a winning asset for those who need representation or advice. Highly recommended.

My beloved son was killed in Brooklyn, NY on July 6, 2014 by a speeding driver. In the midst of the worst possible day of my life, a calming and compassionate hand took over all of the details that I would never have been able to navigate by myself. You expect good service when you are being represented in a legal case, but Daniel Flanzig and his staff always went above and beyond their duty to make sure I was not only well represented, but understood the process, had all my bases covered, was kept up to date with the process, and was also gently treated like the broken and grieving parent that I was. His sense of family, community, and integrity are beyond admirable, to say the least. I cannot stress ardently enough how important it is to have a professional, knowledgeable, and ethical Attorney to represent you in the face of legal adversity. His character and compassion round out the perfect choice for a legal representative. Kudos to you, Dan...I would highly recommend you and your group to any one I know who needs an Attorney. Thanks for a great job done, and your friendship, as well!

I was in the accident about two years ago and had nobody to help me out. And thats when I have encountered Flanzig lawyer companya and from that moment on everything was a breathe through. Everything was taken care of fast and accurate. Medical forms, insurance management... All done well.
I definetely recommend Flanzig Daniel to be your lawyer for personal injury in relation to cycling accidents!!!!!!
#1 cycling lawyer in NY for sure.

Flanzig & Flanzig helped me get compensation from the driver's insurance company after my bicycle accident. Daniel was friendly, helpful and professional. I cannot thank him enough for his assistance and for putting my mind more at ease after being confronted with the staggering medical bills.

If you have been in a bike accident, you should call Daniel Flanzig.

A couple of years ago, I was involved in an accident while biking to work. The driver of a vehicle parked on the side of the road didn't check his mirrors before opening his door, and so when he swung the door open, it struck me and knocked me into another vehicle on the road. I fractured my hand and eventually needed to have surgery.

At the time of the accident, I did what anyone in that situation should do: I gathered information, found witnesses, snapped some photos of the scene of the accident, got a police report, and made sure to go to the hospital in an ambulance just in case I had unknowingly injured my neck, head, or back. However, I still needed to find a good lawyer to make sure that my (extensive) bills and other costs would be covered, because I have never battled an insurance company before and worried that they would try to avoid fault.

I researched and spoke with multiple lawyers and decided to go with Daniel Flanzig. He understands the law inside and out and is a cyclist himself. After speaking with him, I felt like I could rest my fears about the situation and trust him to navigate me through the legal labyrinth of my case. The driver's car insurance, unsurprisingly, put up a fight and we went through a lot of BS for the next two years. Daniel and his team were always on top of everything - from my bills, court dates, prepping me for depositions, regularly updating me about what was happening, and more. The experience was nerve-wracking, but Daniel and his team instilled a sense of confidence and security in me that all was being taken care of. I'm happy to report that the case settled in my favor.

If you are reading this, you have probably been in an accident or know someone who has, and you are probably trying to decide who to choose among the hundreds of lawyers out there. Do your research, but rest assured that you cannot go wrong with Daniel Flanzig and his team. They will work hard for you and take care of your situation just like they did for me. While I hope that I will not experience another accident, I know that if I do, I'll go back to Daniel without hesitation.

Daniel Flanzig is the lawyer you want on your team. Extraordinary knowledge, expertise, and experience are some of the assets he brings to the table to start with. His knowledge, not only of bicycle law but of relevant precedent and traffic law is staggering. Equally impressive is his ability to deal with opposing counsel in a collegial but definitive way. He and his firecracker staff were on top of my case from “go”, and always made me feel at ease and taken care of. Best of all, he got me my entire settlement without ever having to set foot in the courtroom. He knows his law and how to practice it. Do yourself a favor and get this guy to represent you.

If you have been in a bike accident, don't try to navigate the labyrinthine NYS no-fault system by yourself. You need the high quality, responsive, transparent representation that Dan and Cathy Flanzig provide.

In August of 2012 I was doored by a livery cab. I was severely injured, and had to be taken from the scene by an ambulance. The cab driver didn't didn't stay to talk to police. No police report was filed. After I was discharged, I had about $10,000 of medical bills, and I had to investigate this situation on my own. Since there is no official language for being doored, what I wound up interacting with is an entire bureaucracy centralized around motor vehicle to motor vehicle accidents. Every form you submit, and every person you interact with perceives your situation this way. Everything has to be altered to suit a bicycle/car accident. It was a nightmare, and without knowing my options, I tried to do it myself, and I did it wrong.

I was denied no fault coverage on this basis and found myself a month into my post-accident life without medical treatment. I reached out to several other firms for help only to have them have no interest in helping me. By chance, I read an article on Gothamist about the proliferation of firms dedicated to cyclists' rights and found Flanzig and Flanzig. I wrote an angry, emotional email describing my situation at about 8pm, and before 9pm I was talking to Daniel, and about my options.

It is amazing that they took me on in the first place knowing that there would be several months of paperwork involved with circumventing the mess/trap I'd walked into trying to represent myself--BEFORE any sort of settlement could be discussed in the future. That it took months to get this insurance company to even take responsibility for my medical bills is testament to their practice. In the interceding time, Daniel has counseled me every step of the way including helping me find the quality medical treatment I desperately needed, and fought for every bit of my lost wages. I know that without his and Cathy's help and the help of his team my quality of life would be a shadow of what it is today.

I consulted Daniel after I was rear ended by a cab in 2012. He was extremely helpful, professional, and patient throughout the entire process. The cab's insurance company was evasive and often late with payments and Daniel swiftly dealt with these matters. We settled the claim at a much higher amount than my original expectations. Working with Flanzig was very easy !
