Overview

From Road Rash to Court

Bicycle injury cases aren't just auto cases on two wheels - they demand a nuanced understanding of cyclist behavior, specialized equipment, traffic law, and public perception. This CLE program dives into what truly sets cycling crash cases apart, from cyclists' rights and obligations to arguments often pushed by the defense. Approach these cases with strategy and confidence - register today!

  • Find out why treating cycling injuries like routine car accidents can undermine your case from the start.
  • Discover how cycling kits, helmets, computers, and other gear impact liability and damages.
  • Reveal common defense arguments used to shift fault - and how you can neutralize them.

She commutes almost everywhere by e-bike and incorporates some aspect of health, wellness, or sport into every day. When she isn't riding or helping make cycling safer, she's busy with 2 shelter rescue puppies, Eli and Luna and enjoying her "intermittent van life," aka adventuring in nature and exploring new places. She also coaches her local high school Mountain bike team.
