Welcome to PritzkerOlsen, P.A.

Attorney Fred Pritzker is Avid Bicylist and Former Racer

Attorney Fred Pritzker

I am a bicyclist.

I’ve raced, competed in triathlons, done centuries and regularly commute to work by bicycle. My law firm also sponsors a racing team. 

I have also been run off the road by careless drivers, knocked off my bicycle by suddenly opened car doors and almost killed by irresponsible left turning motorists.

In short, and like you, I need to ride. It makes me feel good, it keeps me fit and it’s good for the planet. But I also know that at any moment, I am vulnerable to serious injury or even death as a result of the negligence of the motoring public or the aggressive (and sometimes assaultive) behavior of certain drivers.

I am also a personal injury attorney. I represent bicyclists injured by negligent motorists and defective bicycle components. In over thirty years of practice, I have represented thousands of clients and collected millions of dollars on their behalf.  In short, I know how to ride and fix a bicycle as well as try a lawsuit on behalf of an injured bicyclist.

There are good lawyers and there are experienced bicyclists, but there are few good lawyers who also happen to be experienced bicyclists.

I represent injured bicyclists and the families of bicyclists killed in motor vehicle crashes in cases throughout the United States. For a free consultation about your case, please call me toll-free at 1-888-377-8900 or by email at fhp@pritzkerlaw.com.
