A cyclist and a car are never an even match.

Cyclists share Chicago's streets with cars and trucks every single day, from bike lanes on Milwaukee Avenue to unprotected stretches of Clark Street and beyond downtown. When a motor vehicle strikes a bicyclist, the resulting injuries are rarely minor given the sheer size difference involved.

Drivers and their insurers often argue the cyclist came out of nowhere or was riding unsafely, even when the driver was clearly the one who failed to look, yield, or slow down at the exact moment it mattered most for everyone's safety and well-being on the road.

Bret Franco's defense-side experience means he's seen these arguments built from the other side of the table, and knows exactly how to dismantle them on yours. He represents cyclists struck by vehicles at intersections and on roadways throughout the greater Chicago area.
