“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 am a local physician and I was in a bike accident. I hired highly recommended fellow cyclist and bike attorney Kenneth Knabe of the Knabe Law Firm on Madison Avenue. Ken was on top of things from the beginning until the very successful ending. He went above and beyond with great recommendations that helped favorably resolve my case. He even went out in the evening and took photographs that demonstrated there was more than adequate lighting for the at fault driver to see me. He prepared an excellent settlement letter to the insurance company with reports and exhibits in which he detailed and described my damage claims. I highly recommend Ken for his knowledge and expertise in bicycle accidents.”

“I found bicycle attorney Knabe on the internet. I met him at his Lakewood office. Lawyers from a big firm had rejected my case. Mr. Knabe took my case, took photos of the scene and was able to research and establish liability for blocking a bike lane downtown, suddenly opening a door and causing my accident. He knew the law and he actually made them pay with a settlement that was extremely satisfactory. I would highly recommend him for any cyclist who had the misfortune of being hit or injured by a careless driver. You are not a number at his firm. He is hands on and takes it personal when you are hit.”

“I was in a bicycle accident in 2014 when an older woman turned left and hit me. At the suggestion of many other cyclists, I hired bicycle accident attorney, Kenneth Knabe. Ken is not only an injury attorney, but also an avid cyclist who knows both bicycle and injury law. He followed my progress closely, kept in constant touch, and when I was finished treating, prepared a very comprehensive and complete “Demand Letter” to the woman’s insurance company resulting in a favorable settlement without ever even having to go to court. Ken really does take it personal when a member of the bike community is hit by a careless driver. I highly recommend him. Outstanding!”

“I was hit from behind while riding my bicycle by a hit and run driver. I contacted bicycle accident Attorney Kenneth Knabe as he was highly recommended by Bike Cleveland. Mr. Knabe is an avid cyclist himself. He gathered all my physical bike, helmet, shorts, jersey, shoes and related gear damage evidence, photographed it and obtained estimates which resulted in full payment for all my extensive property loss. He did this as a favor and charged no fee on the property damage. He then made a personal injury claim under my auto’s uninsured motorist coverage which resulted in a very favorable settlement. He kept in contact throughout all of my medical treatment. We interacted on numerous occasions as he stayed on top of my case until the very end. He is well known and respected in the cyclist and legal community. I highly recommend him for his knowledge and expertise in bicycle accident cases! Truly Exceptional.”
