Motorcyclists in Illinois face a particular bias from insurance carriers that can drag down a settlement even when another driver caused the crash. Seidman, Margulis and Fairman, LLP represents motorcycle accident victims in Chicago, working to gather accident reports, eyewitness statements, and video surveillance to counter that bias and build a case for full compensation.
The firm says it has secured hundreds of millions of dollars in total compensation for clients through settlements and verdicts, and it takes motorcycle accident cases on a contingency fee basis, meaning clients owe no legal fees unless the firm recovers compensation. Seidman, Margulis and Fairman also emphasizes direct client contact with the assigned attorney rather than routing communication through paralegals or junior staff. Citing the Illinois Department of Transportation, the firm notes that the state recorded thousands of motorcycle accidents in the most recent reporting year, including 119 motorcyclist fatalities, 2,266 injuries, and 811 injuries classified as catastrophic.
Because motorcyclists lack the physical protection of a passenger vehicle, even riders wearing a helmet can suffer severe injuries in a crash, and the firm’s Chicago team handles cases involving traumatic brain injuries and other serious harm resulting from motorcycle collisions.
