The Genesis of Our Cycling Injury Practice

Managing partner Ron Michael Meneo is a long-time avid cyclist and nationally ranked, triathlete who has attained "All American" distinction by USA Triathlon several times over the last 20 years. As principal of Race Productions, LLC, he has served as a triathlon/duathlon race organizer for almost as long, regularly reviewing and addressing cycling safety issues and working with local police and traffic commissioners to optimize safety protocol. He also served on the Legal Committee for USA Triathlon, the national governing body for triathlon and other multi-sports. In this role, he often was assigned primary responsibility as chair of a 3-person panel conducting disciplinary hearings that involved safety rule violations

Drawing from his personal cycling and triathlon experience, his work as a race organizer and member of the USA Triathlon Legal Committee and his legal experience, Ron has a keen understanding and grasp of cycling accidents, safety and liability issues and cyclist concerns that benefit his clients. In particular, his cycling experience underlies his knowledge and understanding of the factual nuances so often involved in cycling accidents and their causes. Using Ron's experience and knowledge to guide its representation of injured cyclists, The Meneo Law Group and its litigation partners provide diligent, effective and insightful legal representation to their clients.

Our Commitment

We are committed to provide our clients with timely, diligent and effective legal representation. This begins with our initial conversation with prospective clients which usually takes place within 24 hours of when we are first contacted. During that conversation, we seek to obtain important information and details about the accident and resulting injuries. It is always helpful to have access to any police or other first responder reports at this time, those reports are usually the first documents we will obtain after we have accepted a potential case for further investigation and evaluation.

Once we have accepted a potential case, we endeavor to conduct a preliminary investigation of the facts and circumstances concerning our client's accident. Our goal is to gather sufficient information to allow for an initial evaluation of the legal merits and practical aspects of pursuing and proving a liability claim against the party(ies) whose conduct caused the accident. Once we have done this, we talk with our client and discuss our findings (positive and negative), our analysis of those findings and our recommendations. In a cycling accident case, as in most personal injury cases, new information that is discovered as the case proceeds can have an important impact on the evaluation of the case and it merits. We strive to keep our client informed about changes in our evaluation of a case and our resulting recommendations, if any.
