“In July 2023 while cycling on a road I was hit by car a driven by an older gentleman. Fortunately he stopped as well as other drivers to provide assistance. I was transported by ambulance with life threatening injuries. I was hospitalized for a week before being released home.

After numerous unsuccessful attempts to contact the driver’s car insurance, and having talked with our insurance, my husband and I decided we did not have the knowledge or patience to navigate the quagmire of legal and insurance. Hence, I contacted various serious bicycle friends and shops and one name was continuously mentioned: Ken Knabe.

Ken Knabe is a known local bicycle accident lawyer as well as a bicycle advocate and twice published author on bicycle safety and rights.

We called Ken and he came to our home in Sagamore Hills from his office in Lakewood. Something he would do numerous times. Each step of the process-and it was a process-was explained in terms that I could understand the Why, When and How.

Ken helped my husband and me thoroughly document my injuries and resulting limitations and/or changes in my body. Things I never would have thought of. I’m grateful for his expertise and direction.

Never having had a lawyer before for any reason, hiring one was scary (almost everyone has a terrible lawyer story). That was not our case. Ken was personable from the get go with a genuine concern of my physical, mental and financial well being. He was kind and patient and always returned our phones calls immediately during the entire year long process. His calm demeanor coupled with his knowledge gave us confidence. The staff at his Knabe Law Firm was always polite, professional and prompt.

The year long process resulted in having all my medical bills paid and receiving full insurance policy limits from both the driver’s insurance and our insurance. We are very very satisfied. I have returned to cycling on the road and hopefully, we will never need Ken’s services again. I highly recommend Ken!

“I hired Ken Knabe as my attorney after my bike accident in Pepper Pike. Ken helped me resolve my bike damage after meeting me at the bike shop. He then stayed on top of my medical and billing issues, and resolved my personal injury claim with a settlement that far exceeded my expectations.

I highly recommend Ken if you are in a bike crash.”

“Happily cycling for over 30 years, I never thought I would get hit by a car, but it happened. After the hospital stay and recovering slowly at home, I just didn’t want to deal with starting any legal aspect of the situation. However, the Knabe Law Firm was highly recommended by a trusted fellow cyclist, so I called Ken – I’m so glad I did.

Ken Knabe is very smart, thorough, and tenacious in pursuing a fair and just result. His extensive experience and knowledge of the law – particularly in regards to cyclists’ rights and driving laws, means that he knows exactly what to investigate and what information to gather. His case document preparation is exceptional. My case was hard, but in all of our conversations and meetings, I always left feeling that he was on top of everything, and this was always validated. The Knabe Law Firm is second to none in representing cyclists in bike/car accidents. I give Ken Knabe and his team the highest recommendation. If you’re a cyclist involved in a bike/car accident, don’t wait – call Ken Knabe.”

“I was seriously injured while on my bike by an inattentive driver. I called the Knabe Law Firm due to the work Ken does with local advocacy groups and his involvement in the cycling community. Ken and his staff worked diligently on my case. They handled everything with a difficult insurance company and hospital system. I would highly recommend their services.”

“Knabe Law Firm helped us when my husband was hit riding his bike by a hit and run motorist. I didn’t even think my auto insurance would cover him (as a non-driver) but thanks to Ken we were able to receive a settlement! The law firm is also a major supporter of Bike Cleveland, working to prevent crashes like these in the future. Thank you!”

“I was hit by a car while out riding last year and was unsure of how to proceed. Ken Knabe was highly recommended by several friends/acquaintances, not only because he, too, is a cyclist, but because of his professionalism and expertise.

Ken, Rob and team provided excellent advice and supported my spouse and I throughout the recovery and legal process. They handled all of the details for us; making sure my bike was replaced, my bills were paid, I received the medical care I needed for recovery, and I was properly compensated. This left me free to focus on my recovery and not worry about insurance companies, etc.

I would highly recommend the Knabe Law Firm to anyone who finds themselves in the unfortunate situation I encountered.”

“I strongly recommend Knabe Law Firm.

Last year, while riding my bicycle, I was struck and injured by an at-fault driver in Cleveland. Seeking help, I engaged with Knabe Law Firm as I saw they came highly recommended by other individuals as well as other organizations in the area.

From the moment I first sat down with attorneys Ken Knabe and Rob Thompson to the moment my case was settled, they were tremendously reassuring, professional, and knowledgeable in all aspects. As avid cyclists, they took my case and injury very seriously. The team knew how to expertly navigate all the finite details surrounding my case, and they fought thoroughly with the other party’s insurance company to maximize my settlement. If I am ever so unfortunately unlucky to be in a similar situation again, I know I can rely on Knabe Law Firm to help me through it.

Also – Not only are Ken and Rob great attorneys, they are also great members of our community. Ken and Rob serve as board/chair/committee members of various organizations where they support safe cycling as well as safe infrastructure design and planning. They are absolutely top-notch guys and I truly value their dedication to the community and the other people they advocate for and represent.”

“I hired attorney Ken Knabe after my bike crash. From day one, he was on my legal case talking to witnesses and hiring an investigator. He also helped me get a full settlement for my property damage at no charge. He then monitored my treatment and made sure everything was in order so that I was able to obtain the policy limits from the motorist that hit me. Mr. Knabe was very knowledgeable about bike law and how to obtain justice for me. He was fair, reasonable, and honorable through the whole proceeding. I highly recommend him for anyone in a bike crash.”
