You or a Family Member Struck By a Car?

Northern Illinois Pedestrian Accident Lawyer Free Consultation: 847-395-2200

Testimony of witnesses is often critical in personal injury claims involving a pedestrian struck by a car or truck. Contact the pedestrian accident lawyers of the Law Offices of Robert T. Edens for a free consultation, 24-hour access and a rapid response. We investigate quickly, seek maximum compensation, and attempt to hold negligent parties accountable.

Our mission is to provide personalized attention from an experienced personal injury attorney. You will have direct access to your attorney 24 hours a day.

Traumatic Injuries and Long Recovery

Pedestrian accidents and bicycle accidents often involve serious trauma, including broken ribs and broken limbs, head injury, internal injuries and severe lacerations and “road rash.” Recovery can be long, requiring physical therapy and surgery. And too often, the victim is a child.

Full Investigation

The defense will argue that the child was “darting out” into traffic and the driver could not avoid the accident. But veteran pedestrian accident attorney Robert “Bob” Edens will explore whether the driver was at fault – speeding or inattentive, making an illegal maneuver or “rolling stop” at an intersection. We will also investigate road conditions, sight obstructions or other possible factors contributing to the accident.

Bob Edens is accessible 24 hours a day. If he or his associate, attorney Brian J. Olszewski, cannot visit the accident scene in timely fashion, we contract with a private investigator who will survey the scene and interview any witnesses as soon after the accident as possible.

Fast Action

These cases are hard to win at trial, and insurance companies are reluctant to settle them. Our advantage in auto accident claims is our quick response and aggressive pursuit of witnesses in assembling supporting evidence. The driver’s insurance company will have fancy attorneys working hard to defend the claim. You need an experienced and dedicated attorney on your side to win compensation.
