Compensation For Victims Of
Pedestrian Accidents

There is no question that when it comes to safety on the road, pedestrians are the most vulnerable of anyone. They don’t have the protection of tons of steel or seat belts, or even helmets that motorcyclists and bicyclists wear. Whenever a pedestrian is involved in an accident on the road, the pedestrian is likely to lose.

Because pedestrian injuries are more likely to be serious and require extensive hospitalization and rehabilitation, it is especially important that they have access to experienced and aggressive representation that knows how the system works. People in Chicagoland choose our firm because attorney John S. Eliasik has more than 17 years of experience in motor vehicle accident cases in Illinois. Combining experience working for insurance companies with years fighting on behalf of pedestrian injury victims, he has both practical knowledge of insurance claims and passion for helping people injured by someone else’s negligence.

Why Choose Our Firm? Experience, Aggressiveness And A Smart Approach

It is essential that your lawyer have the ability to develop the best approach for your unique case. We take the time to prepare the evidence we need for a strong compensation claim, then tailor that approach to get results.

Some cases are resolved through relatively brief negotiations with the insurance company. Others require going to court to get a client what he or she is due. Our attorney has experience doing both and will always do what is in a client’s best interest, both in terms of the end result, and the time and energy needed to reach it.
