Dependable Representation for Injured Cyclists
People across Chicago rely on bicycles for recreation, exercise and commuting every day. Bicycles are an economical and usually enjoyable way to get around the city or suburbs, from riding along the lakefront to a brisk morning commute. When the weather is right, there are few better ways to get around.
But, an inattentive or aggressive driver can put a bicyclist at significant risk. Even with careful attention to safety and the right equipment, the best cyclist may not be able to avoid the hazards of a dangerous driver.
If you or someone you love has been injured in a bicycle accident caused by a negligent driver, our attorneys at the Illinois law offices of Salvi & Maher, L.L.C., will help you recover compensation for lost wages, physical injury and financial damages. We put more than 25 years of experience behind your personal injury case.
