The Chicago Car Accident Lawyers at the Lloyd Miller Law warn that if you suffer a personal injury in a Car Accident, Bicycle Accident, Truck Accident, or a bad fall or work injury, don’t be brave and risk further injury just because you think you are ok. People who get in accidents are immediately filled with adrenaline, your body’s defense to pain and danger. Adrenaline can cause a feeling of euphoria which will mask serious injuries and enables us to fight or flee from a dangerous situation. This may cause an accident victim to assume that they aren’t really injured. Later, when the adrenaline wears off, victims will notice the pain and it can be very severe. The Chicago car accident lawyers at the Lloyd Miller Law have handled hundreds of car accident, truck accident, bicycle accident and pedestrian accident claims. Some of the most serious and preventable injuries occur when the victim thinks they are fine and refuses medical attention. This is not only detrimental to their physical recovery, but also can impede their ability to obtain full compensation in their claim for damages. South Chicago is full of industry and business’ and therefore a hot spot for potential motor vehicle accidents involving cars, trucks, bicycles and pedestrians. Personal injury resulting from any accident should never be ignored, and victims should obtain medical attention as soon as possible. The Lloyd Miller Law wants to litigate for the best financial and medical settlement available for your injuries, and that means being safe and smart by getting medical treatment immediately. Leave the treatment of the personal injury to the doctor and the advocacy of your settlement to the Lloyd Miller Law
Under Chicago Uber & Lyft laws, who pays after an accident depends on the status of the driver’s app. If the app is on, the rideshare company’s liability policy pays. If the app is off, the driver’s personal insurance covers damages and losses arising from the accident. If another driver was liable, that driver’s insurer will be responsible for covering the arising costs and losses.
