I've raced bikes since 1987 and tried injury cases just as long. Cyclists are now the only clients I take — because insurers don't value what they don't understand.

What Bill's Clients Say

The experiences of our clients speak for themselves.

Emmett Murphy

I was hit by a car making an illegal left hand turn and I went over the car's hood but thankfully was not badly injured. The insurer was, to be polite, not in the business of paying out settlements to legitimate claims and I hired Bill to work this. He was professional empathetic (as a cyclist himself) and worked this from a number of approaches thoroughly. I highly recommend him based upon my experience and, by the way my wife's as well. Excellent job.

Redding Shelby

Bill was recommended to me when I got hit by a car while cycling in 2024. He clearly has a wealth of experience with my type of case and he took plenty of time to explain what I could expect from the process and settlement. He kept me well-updated as he negotiated with the third party insurance as well as my health insurance, and in the end I was very surprised and satisfied with the outcome. I would recommend Bill to anyone who finds themselves in my situation. His office is professional, effective, and a pleasure to work with.

Patrick Cash

Bill was helpful getting the insurance company to respond with the help that was needed. Without his work, I was not even able to get them to respond to me. He was able to guide me with what I needed to do to be successful with my claims.

Jim Walters

Bill Shirer handled my cycling accident. Couldn't ask for better service or results.

Bruce Trego

Bill Shirer is an excellent attorney for injured bicyclists in need of assistance. Bill was a consummate professional at handling my accident which occurred when a SUV failed to yield making a left turn on a flashing yellow light. The accident resulted in severe facial trauma including the loss of multiple teeth and numerous facial fractures requiring several surgeries. His guidance and counsel throughout the process was invaluable. I could not be happier with the outcome of my case due to Bill's diligence and expertise.

Marcus Gillespie

Solid dude. Took care of me after being hit by a taxi cab that ran a red light.

Ahmed Zaher

GREAT GREAT GREAT SERVICE. Thank you for taking care of us.

James Standifer

Bill and his team did an excellent job in representing me in my case and obtaining a fair settlement. From negotiating with the various parties involved, obtaining the necessary medical records and working with the insurance companies to ensure all details were covered. Highly recommend him for anyone needing an attorney to represent them in their case.

Scott Osuna

Bill and his team are consummate professionals and he handled my case with an understanding that only comes from the experience of being not just an attorney, but a fellow rider.

Mark Johnson

Bill was above and beyond in every aspect of representing me. Hopefully I do not get hit by a car again. If I did, I would run straight back to Bill. Thank you Bill for everything that you did for me!

About Me

Legal Experience

I am board-certified in personal injury trial law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization, with more than 40 years of trial experience and the highest rating (AV) from Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings. I've tried hundreds of cases and recovered $10M+ for clients since 2018, with extensive experience in every phase of litigation. And I only represent cyclists.

Cycling Experience

I've ridden more than 100,000 miles over the last 40 years and competed in over 100 triathlons, including the Ironman Hawaii (twice, and qualified five times). I was a member of Team USA and competed in World's Events in Sweden, Australia, and Canada. I placed in the top three at the Texas Master's Triathlon Championship multiple times, and on the cycling side I've raced in a few hundred events and was the Texas Masters Champion (50+) one year, placing highly in other years.

I own and ride high-end bikes, so I understand how a crash can destroy a carbon frame worth thousands of dollars. I handle your property damage claim for free when I represent you on the bodily injury claim.

I also understand serious training: periodization, Functional Threshold Power, Performance Management Charts, and how months of structured preparation lead up to key events. When a crash takes that away, you don't just lose fitness, you lose a season's worth of work. That destroyed potential is part of the damages I pursue on behalf of my clients, and it's something most attorneys don't understand because they don't live it.

I understand the cycling community and the challenges you face as a cyclist. I am committed to our sport and to serving my clients. I have the knowledge, expertise, and experience to help you get compensation for both your personal injuries and the damages to your bike.
