Pedestrian Accidents

Chicago Pedestrian Injuries Attorneys

The Chicago injury law firm of Zneimer & Zneimer represents pedestrians who have been injured by being hit by a car or truck.  There are approximately 5000 pedestrian fatalities in traffic accidents each year in the United States.  In the year 2009 alone, 111 pedestrians were killed in accidents in Illinois, and 13 of those pedestirans were age 75 or older according to the Illinois Department of transportation. The Chicago injury firm of Zneimer & Zneimer p.c. represents injured clients in every county in Illinois, including Cook County, Kane County, DuPage County, Will County, Madison County and all other counties in the state.

Injuries as a result of such accidents have the potential to be so severe that they represent life changing events. You may have injuries to your brain or neck, sustained permanent nerve damage or spinal chord paralysis, dislocated or received a compound fracture or break of a bone or limb, or, in some cases, have to have a limb amputated.  Studies show that a pedestrian sustains substantially greater injury if the vehicle that hits the person is a minivan, SUV, or pickup.  

The Chicago injury lawyers at Zneimer & Zneimer understand that your immediate concerns after having survived such a traumatic event are to make sure that all medical bills are covered and to minimize the financial impact of lost wages, and to ensure that both immediate and, if need be, longer term medical expenses are covered by the insurance company or companies.  The experienced attorneys at the Chicago law offices of Zneimer & Zneimer will discuss the details of your case and review with you any decisions you would have to make so that you can make informed decisions.  The Chicago injury attorneys of Zneimer & Zneimer p.c. will put their experience to work to ensure that you will receive the maximum recovery for your case. We will pursue all the money damages you are entitled to under Illinois law, including recovery for medical expenses, lost time from work, pain and suffering and disability.
