Pedestrians are often the most vulnerable to negligent drivers, especially in big cities, like Chicago, that have a high volume of vehicular as well as foot traffic. Under Illinois law, pedestrians DO NOT have the right of way unless they are in a crosswalk. If you or someone you love has suffered a serious pedestrian accident, it is important to know your rights and work with a law firm you can trust. At The Horwitz Law Group, our Chicago pedestrian accident lawyers provide exceptional legal advocacy to preserve the financial well-being of our clients.
According to Illinois crosswalk laws, pedestrians must yield to all upcoming traffic and only have the right of way at marked crosswalks. If you’ve been injured in a pedestrian accident, call a trustworthy law firm to see whether you are entitled to compensation for various financial losses. At The Horwitz Law Group, our Chicago pedestrian accident lawyers provide exceptional legal advocacy to preserve the financial well-being of our clients.
