"It is legal in Florida to ride without a helmet but you have to realize you're on two wheels and don't have a car around you to protect you in an accident. While you have the freedom to decide whether or not you want to wear a helmet, you must think of your safety above all else." says Scott Donaldson, attorney.

There are other ways you can protect yourself. By utilizing defensive driving techniques, you can better avoid dangerous maneuvers from negligent drivers. Plus, you must remain alert and always keep aware of your blind spots.

The attorneys at Donaldson & Weston helped me get an amazing result on my case. Obviously I’ve been through a lot physically but I feel better now and the money really helped my family. When I was riding my bicycle I was hit by a truck that wasn't paying attention. I am not the suing type, but I would definitely hire this firm again. - M.P.

After my accident, i felt like I was being pulled in a bunch of different directions. I really didn't know what to do and all I wanted was someone to shoot me straight. The lawyers at the firm were so honest and definitely pointed me in the right direction. The staff was professional. I think it’s great that only attorneys work on my case, it definitely made me feel comfortable - D.L.

After my accident happened I waited to hear back from the insurance company for about 6 months. I just felt like they kept jerking me around. They even told me not to hire an attorney because it would mean less money in my pocket. I couldn't wait any longer because my bills were out of hand. I hired this firm and they were solid. I got a great result without having to go to court. - S.C.
