Pedestrian Accidents
Close to 5,000 pedestrians are killed in traffic accidents every year. Our firm represents clients who have suffered personal injuries in the Chicago area, or who may be a survivor of a pedestrian killed in a road accident as a result of the reckless or negligent conduct of another person.
Injuries suffered as a result of these types of accidents can be severe and life altering. You may have injuries to your head or neck, nerve damage or spinal cord paralysis, broken or dislocated a bone or limb, lost the use of a limb, or even lost an entire limb. Our firm understands that the goal after going through such trauma is to get your medical bills paid and covered, make sure you do not suffer financially through any lost wages, and make sure your insurance company will pay for future treatment relating to your injury. Our experienced attorneys will discuss your situation and go over the options available to you, as well as work with insurance companies and other parties involved in your case to make sure all your needs are handled quickly and appropriately.
Levin & Perconti has successfully handled many cases involving pedestrians and recovered millions of dollars in verdicts and settlements for victims and their families, including a record-setting $10 million settlement for a 5-year-old boy who was run over by a City of Chicago Fire Department truck while playing in an open fire hydrant on the Fourth of July, resulting in the loss of his leg and half of his pelvis.
