After handling hundreds of cases, we have learned that a bike crash is rarely a “bike accident.” As a Maryland bicycle accident attorney, Peter knows the difference.
He has represented cyclists in Annapolis, Bethesda, Columbia, Baltimore, Rockville, College Park and most places in between.
Representation in Maryland Bicycle Crashes
Peter Wilborn grew up in Bethesda as a “Breaking Away” kid. When he saw the movie in 1979, he aspired to trade in his BMX bike for a road bike. Many mowed yards and many Washington Star and Washington Post deliveries later, he finally did. It was a third-hand grey Benotto which had been crashed in a College Park crit, then repaired and repainted at the famous Proteus shop. It was the most wonderful, precious thing he had ever seen. Every weekend, he rode further and further from home, addicted to the independence, freedom, and fitness that only a bicycle can give a young teenager. He never stopped riding.
In 1998, Peter had a bike tragedy in his own family, realized first hand the need for lawyers who understand cycling, and devoted his law practice to Bike Law. From the start, calls and referrals have come from friends in cycling clubs and bike shops and from advocates for better bicycling. Since then, Peter has represented Maryland cyclists throughout the State, from the D.C. suburbs to Annapolis, Columbia, Baltimore, Frederick, Cumberland and everywhere else.
Speaking of Cumberland, Peter has ridden the length of the C & O Canal many, many times. He has ridden all over the country and all over the world, but riding the Canal is his favorite ride.
