- Unsignaled turns near Deer Park Boulevard & Field Parkway
- Speeding on less-monitored stretches of Lake Cook Road or Old McHenry Road
We’ve represented injured passengers, pedestrians, and even Lyft drivers hit while waiting in Town Center valet zones or pulling out of Whole Foods Deer Park parking lot.
Who’s Responsible for an Uber or Lyft Crash in Deer Park?
Responsibility may lie with:
- The Uber or Lyft driver, if they were active in the app and made a negligent move
- A third-party vehicle, often during left turns or while changing lanes on Rand Road
- Local government, if unsafe intersections, unmarked crossings, or construction zones contributed
We gather evidence through:

EXCELLENT Based on 315 reviews Posted on Kat ChowTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can't stress enough how grateful I am that we hired Paul Marriett to help us with our case. His communication was not only timely and thorough but also understandable. He did a phenomenal job guiding us through the process and preparing us for the courtroom, which put our minds at ease. Once our hearing came, he did his job flawlessly and won our case. Additionally, he was quite pleasant to speak with when our judge was behind schedule and while the court was in recess. I highly recommend him to anyone needing an attorney and will reach out again in the future should we ever need representation.Posted on angel martinezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very professional and helpful! I would recommend to all my friends and family to hire him. He was eager to know the circumstances of my case even before I hired him. I did contact other lawyers and offices, but none came close to the comfort I felt while talking to Mr. Marriertt, I really felt like he cared about the situation I found myself in. He deserves 6 stars for going above and beyondPosted on John HarkerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Paul helped me out with a traffic citation. The communication was great as he walked me through my options and what to expect with my court date and plea deal. 10/10 service. Highly recommended. Thanks again, Paul.Posted on Ryan H.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Paul was very professional, sharp dressed and clearly a notch above most in the courtroom. He understood my plight and refused to be bullied. Knows the law to a T....I'm keeping him on speed dial. I think u will trust him too.Posted on Scorpion SolarTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. BEYOND satisfied with the services & representation! The communication & efforts have been above & BEYOND! Amazing price as well for a minor traffic hiccup. 11/10 recommend & prefer this firm for any future occurrences!!! Very transparent, & puts in the effort to help you!!!Posted on Zak GreenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If you are needing a lawyer in Rockford or the surrounding areas this is the guy you need to get ahold of! Do not waste your time or money going to someone else.... From the very start Mr. Marriett was on top of his job. I called several lawyers before him and he was the first to thoroughly explain everything I needed to hear without even asking him to. The definition of a great lawyer. Each time we went to court he always let me know ahead of time either in person or via phone what the expectations or options would be going in. I highly recommend Paul Marriett if you are in need of a lawyer!Posted on KelliTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Explained everything well. Kept us informed. I'm glad we found him.Posted on bruce paulsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am very late on sharing my feedback only because I’m google illiterate. Attorney Merriett did a very smart excellent job for me and not real expensive considering how stupid I was to get in trouble . Thank you! For all your professionalism! Bruce P.Posted on Austin “i like trains” ArveyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great service and a reliable lawyer. I'm glad we got him instead of getting anyone else. :)

FAQs — Uber & Lyft Accident Claims in Deer Park, IL
Who’s liable if I’m injured in a rideshare in Deer Park?
Liability may fall on the Uber/Lyft driver, a third-party driver, or possibly even the township if signage or road layout played a role.
What can I recover if I was hurt near Town Center or Rand Road?
You may recover for medical costs, therapy, lost wages, pain, and future care needs.
What if the rideshare driver was not at fault?
We’ll file against the at-fault driver’s insurer and ensure Uber/Lyft’s policies are still considered if app usage was active.
What if Uber or Lyft denies my injury claim?
We appeal, gather supporting documentation, and escalate the matter to court if necessary.
Do I need a lawyer even for a minor accident?
Yes—insurance companies often minimize payouts for “minor” injuries that later lead to chronic pain or income disruption.
