Pedestrian/Bicycle Accidents

Illinois Pedestrian and Bicycle Accident Attorneys

You were innocently riding down the street, minding the traffic laws and watching the cars around you. A car suddenly swerves and strikes you. You wind up spending weeks or months in the hospital recovering from your injuries. Now you are facing significant medical bills and have lost control of your finances due to the limited income caused by time away from work. You need help.

We understand that a serious injury or death of a loved one can cause great disruption in your home. We can help you with the legal ramifications presented by the accident. Contact RIFFNER • BARBER, LLC. We are here for you.

We Understand and Simplify Complex Issues

Lawsuits arising from bicycle accidents or pedestrian accidents may involve many legal issues. Our attorneys are here to take on the responsibility of pursuing the claim so that you can focus on your recovery and your family. Some of the issues that may arise in your case include:

  • Failure to yield: Was there a crosswalk? Did the pedestrian yield? We evaluate comparative negligence issues.
  • Hit and run accidents: How can liability be sought if the negligent driver is unattainable? We evaluate and pursue uninsured motorist claims.
  • Extent of injuries: Will the injury develop further as time passes (especially after a settlement offer is accepted)? We consult with your doctors and do not accept any settlement offers until your injuries have stabilized.

We have many years of experience working with Illinois law and how these laws are applicable to bike accident or pedestrian injury claims. Whether a child was involved in a pedestrian accident beside the road or you were injured in a bicycle accident, we can help you with any accident claims.
