Illinois Bike Injury Attorneys
Every year, more commuters turn to bicycles as their primary form of transportation in Chicago and communities throughout Illinois. Add recreational bikers and children to the mix and there is no question that bike riding has become one of the most popular activities enjoyed by millions of people. Unfortunately, as the number of bikers has increased on our roads many car drivers still have not adapted to sharing the road or watching out for bikers. In fact, some car drivers are outright hostile when it comes to yielding right of way.
When obeying the law, bikers have the same rights on our public roads as every other vehicle. When children bikers are present, car drivers have an added responsibility to drive carefully. If you or a child in your family suffered an injury in a bike accident in Illinois, Cogan & McNabola, P.C., Attorneys at Law, in Chicago is ready to help you protect your rights. Our trial attorneys have successfully represented individuals and families in a significant number of bike accident insurance settlements and trials.
Our Lawyers Know That Bike Accidents Are Unique.
Bikers injured when struck by a car are at a distinct disadvantage. Not only are they unprotected from injury, but they must often overcome a bias by insurance companies and prospective jurors. Too many people feel that bikers ignore the laws and take a risk by riding in traffic. Too often, the lack of skid marks and hard physical evidence at the scene makes it difficult to find proof of liability against the car driver. We use our experience and the skills of independent accident reconstruction professionals, when needed, to fully investigate the accident and present clear evidence of driver liability. Our focus is always 100 percent on recovering the maximum money damages you are entitled to.
