Illinois Recreational Vehicle Accident Lawyers
Attorneys for Those Hurt in RV, ATV, and Snowmobile Crashes in Cook, Kane and DuPage County
During warmer months, many residents of Northern Illinois use a variety of vehicles for recreational purposes, including all-terrain vehicles (ATVs), campers, go-carts, golf carts, and many others. When the weather turns colder, the recreational vehicle of choice is often a snowmobile. Outdoor recreation offers a variety of benefits, but it also comes with many risks, especially when using a recreational vehicle.
At Kaiser Law, we understand the dangers associated with the various types of recreational vehicles, and we recognize how an accident could change your life. Our experienced personal injury attorneys have helped many victims of recreational vehicle accidents obtain compensation from the party or parties who caused their injuries. If you have been hurt because of someone else's negligence or a defective recreational vehicle, we are prepared to put our proven approach to work for you and your family.
Chicago Area Counsel for High-Speed Recreational Vehicle Accidents
Some recreational vehicles are designed to travel at high speeds through wooded areas, including ATVs and side-by-sides. Others are intended for use in a variety of other environments. Vehicles such as these can reach speeds of up to 65 miles per hour, which when combined with the unpredictability of the terrain where they are most often ridden can lead to serious injury in the event of a crash.
The team at Kaiser Law represents those who have been hurt in accidents involving any type of high-speed recreational vehicle, including:
- Three-wheel and four-wheel all-terrain vehicles (ATVs)
- Utility task vehicles (UTVs), often called side-by-sides
- Off-road motorcycles, such as dirt bikes and pocket bikes
- Go-carts and dune buggies
- Golf carts
- Snowmobiles, sometimes known as motor sleds or snow machines
If you have been injured while riding a high-speed recreational vehicle, the first step toward collecting compensation is determining the party or parties responsible for your accident. In some cases, the operator of another recreational vehicle may have been riding carelessly or negligently, which ultimately led to the crash. If this describes your situation, the other rider could be held liable for your injuries. In other situations, the vehicle may be equipped with defective or recalled parts, in which case the manufacturer or the distributor of the vehicle or parts could be financially responsible.
Regardless of the circumstances, the team at Kaiser Law will conduct a thorough investigation of your accident to determine what happened, why, and who may be liable. With over 100 years of combined legal experience, we know how to build a case designed to get you the full compensation you need as you recover from your injuries.
Camper and RV Injuries
In addition to accidents involving high-speed recreational vehicles, Kaiser Law also represents victims who have been injured in accidents related to motor homes, travel trailers, and campers. Camper and travel trailer accidents can occur both on the road or while the vehicle is parked at a campsite. Our attorneys understand that the same rules regarding negligence and liability that apply in other motor vehicle accidents also apply in travel trailer and camper accidents, but there are other situations that could create unique challenges.
For example, if you are visiting a friend's campsite and you are injured in their camper, you may face difficulties recovering compensation for your injuries. Campground and recreational vehicle insurance policies are often confusing, and insurers may seek to avoid liability in a variety of ways. Our attorneys are prepared to help you deal with the insurance companies so that you can get the compensation you need to get back on your feet.
