Bike Accident Lawsuits
You Ride for Freedom. We Fight to Protect It.
If you ride, you already know: follow the rules, share the road.
But every time you clip in, you put your trust in drivers to do the same. When they don’t—and you get hurt—your life can change in an instant.
At Popham Law, cycling isn’t just a case category—it’s personal. Our attorneys ride too, and they’ve logged thousands of miles on roads and trails across Missouri, Kansas, Colorado, Arkansas, and beyond. Partner Paul Anderson is a competitive cyclist who regularly races in events throughout the Midwest. Paul and fellow partner Mark Schloegel have both tackled some of the region’s toughest courses, from the rolling hills of Missouri to the mountains of Colorado. They understand the risks cyclists face every time they clip in—whether it’s navigating high-traffic roads, dodging distracted drivers, or recovering from close calls that shake your confidence to ride again.
Because they ride, they know exactly what it takes to stand up for cyclists in the courtroom—and hold negligent drivers accountable. Whether you’ve been hit by a car, doored in a bike lane, or suffered serious injuries in a crash, Popham Law is here to fight for you.

Tips For Handling Cycling Accidents That Might Turn Into Lawsuits
- Get Medical Attention – Even if you feel okay, get checked out. Some injuries show up hours or days later.
- Document Everything – Photos of your bike, your injuries, the car, and the scene can all help your case.
- Don’t Trust the Insurance Company – Their goal is to settle fast and cheap, and they'll make it sound appealing. Don’t sign or accept anything without legal advice.
- Call Paul or Mark – We’ll answer your questions for free, with no pressure to work with us after the call.
