BIKE-FRIENDLY ATTORNEYS

FBA is very appreciative of the advocacy efforts and legal advice provided by attorneys Chris Burns (Jacksonville) and Steele Olmstead (Tampa). Their expertise and advice has helped many cyclists fight traffic citation injustice. You don't have to be a cyclist to be a good bicycle-friendly attorney, but it helps.

The following list of bicycle-friendly was compiled by FBA member Sharon Wolfson. If you know other bicycle-friendly attorneys in your area, please let us know.

FBA member attorneys are highlighted in yellow.
