“I was struck by an underinsured motorist in Cleveland in summer 2024. While I was being treated in the hospital for my injuries my wife was panic stricken as she had no idea where to turn. Cleveland police were not helpful and didn’t arrive on the scene until well after everyone had left, they seemingly had very little interest in holding the motorist accountable. Ken Knabe’s name came up as being an experienced bike attorney. Most of us avid cyclists in the area have heard his name before, but only now do I fully understand the reasons behind his legendary status in the bike community. Ken jumped in right away as soon as my wife called while I was still in the hospital and not able to address anything on my own. Once I had surgery and was released from the hospital, insurance companies did not want to pay. Ken was able to step in and get them to pay, got my medical bills covered, property damage (bike and equipment) replaced, and a little extra on top. I highly recommend Knabe law firm if you’re victimized in an accident and left with a bike related injury. Additionally , make sure you have uninsured motorist coverage on your insurance policy!”

“After a bike accident, I was at a loss for who to trust. I searched for a bicycle attorney and Knabe Law Firm came up. I asked around and everyone agreed that Ken and Knabe Law Firm was the best choice. Ken and his team made everything so easy, and they let me focus on my injuries while they took care of everything else.”

“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 hit by a careless driver on my bike and suffered significant injuries. Bike Cleveland recommended Attorney Ken Knabe. He met me at the bike shop and helped me to get all my property damage paid for. He then followed my medical treatment and recovered the policy limits of the unsafe driver. I highly recommend him for anyone injured in a bike accident.”

“Several members of my Ironman training group referred me to cyclist attorney, Kenneth J. Knabe after I was hit by a car while riding my bike at the Metroparks. I hired Mr. Knabe. He immediately helped me recover full value for my bicycle and accessories and took no fee on the property damage. He then patiently guided me through my medical treatment process, took photos of my injuries, documented my damages and obtained reports from my doctor. I was very satisfied with the settlement I received. I highly recommend him for anyone in a bike accident. He really knows bike and injury law as an attorney and fellow cyclist.”

“We without reservation recommend our attorney Kenneth Knabe to all, and especially to anyone involved in a bicycling case. I was seriously injured in a vehicle-bicycle crash involving many riders, some of whom were killed. The fact that Ken was a bicyclist himself, and his knowledge and experience with bicycling accident cases and law made me much more confident and assured while we navigated the complexities of the cases. Ken made the best of preparation, actually riding the route the cyclists took. He helped to clarify all that happened in the civil litigation, communicated as much as we needed, and helped prepare us thoroughly for the deposition. All in all, you could see the caring he exhibited, being a fellow cyclist. We are very grateful, and highly recommend Ken Knabe.”

“A car hit me while I was commuting to work on my bike in Cleveland Heights. The at-fault driver’s insurance company offered to settle right away. Before meeting with the insurance company, I called Bike Cleveland who recommended that I talk to Kenneth Knabe, Greater Cleveland’s Bicycle Accident Attorney. I called Kenneth. His advice was to cancel the meeting because it was much too early to assess the real extent of my injuries. I cancelled the meeting and hired Ken.
Turns out Ken was completely right – I had a far more serious injury than what I originally had realized. Mr. Knabe ended up settling my case for around 30 times more than what the insurance company was offering me (and what I would have accepted if not for Mr. Knabe’s advice).
If you are injured in a bike accident, do not try to handle it yourself. Go to a pro who knows bike and injury law. I highly recommend Attorney Kenneth Knabe for anyone injured in a bike accident!”

“I was in a bicycle accident caused by a driver who had no insurance. At the recommendation of several cyclists, I hired a fellow cyclist and bicycle accident Attorney Kenneth Knabe as my lawyer. He made some great recommendations. Through his help, I was able to maximize a settlement from my own uninsured motorist coverage. I would highly recommend him to any cyclist in a bike accident.”
