In Bryn Mawr, ATV use isn’t always legal, but it’s happening. Whether you’re cutting through alleyways between North Winthrop Avenue and North Kenmore, riding along unused lots near Rosehill Cemetery, or crossing open property near Loyola Beach, these vehicles are being used recreationally, for content creation, or quick transport. But the risks are high, and when accidents happen, they’re often severe.
Chicago Injury Lawyer represents victims injured in off-road vehicle crashes throughout Edgewater, Uptown, and Rogers Park. If your ATV accident occurred near Senn High School, in the alley behind Bryn Mawr Red Line Station, or while navigating back lots around Broadway Avenue, we’ll help you file your injury claim and fight for compensation.
Call us now at 312-261-5656 for a free, no-obligation consultation, available 24/7. With our no-fee-unless-we-win policy, you can focus on your recovery while we handle the rest.
Injured in an ATV Accident in Bryn Mawr?
Many ATV crashes on Chicago’s North Side involve:
- Collisions with parked cars in crowded alleys, especially in the residential zones between Glenwood Avenue and Clark Street
- Rollovers or flips on broken pavement or construction areas near Sheridan Road, where utility work often leaves hazards unmarked
- Youth or underage rider crashes, which are especially common during unsupervised rides near Nicholas Senn Park or along Catalpa Avenue
Urban ATV riders in Bryn Mawr often assume they can’t file a claim due to local ordinance violations. That’s not true. If your injuries were caused by someone else’s recklessness, a defective vehicle, or an unsafe property, we can help.
Common Causes of ATV Accidents in Chicago Neighborhoods
Bryn Mawr residents deal with a unique set of risks when it comes to ATV usage:
- Unregulated trail use along train embankments or alleys between commercial and residential zones
- Improper road modifications, like open manholes or raised concrete in parking lots near Hollywood Beach
- Reckless operation during social media recording or urban stunt riding—particularly common near Argyle Street’s high-traffic zones
We build your case based on what really caused the crash, not where it happened.
Who Is Liable for an ATV Crash?
Depending on the circumstances of your crash in Bryn Mawr, multiple parties may be at fault:
- A reckless rider—common during weekend rides in alleys off Berwyn Avenue
- A landowner or property manager who failed to maintain a safe environment (including condo associations and retail plaza owners)
- An ATV manufacturer, especially if the crash was caused by brake failure, electrical issues, or design flaws
If your injury occurred on private land or behind commercial storefronts between Clark and Broadway, we’ll assess who had the duty to maintain safety.
What Compensation Can You Recover After an ATV Accident?
As your legal team, we pursue damages for:
- Emergency care at Swedish Hospital, Weiss Memorial, or Saint Francis in Evanston
- Follow-up treatment and rehab near Edgewater Medical Center
- Lost wages, especially for self-employed riders, artists, delivery drivers, or hospitality workers in Andersonville or Uptown
- Pain and suffering, including long-term joint pain, road rash scarring, or PTSD after a traumatic crash

EXCELLENT Based on 315 reviews Kat Chow2024-11-22Trustindex 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. angel martinez2024-11-15Trustindex 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 beyond John Harker2024-11-04Trustindex 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. Ryan H.2024-11-04Trustindex 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.

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!!! Zak Green2024-10-19Trustindex 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! Kelli2024-10-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Explained everything well. Kept us informed. I'm glad we found him. bruce paulson2024-10-16Trustindex 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. Austin “i like trains” Arvey2024-10-09Trustindex 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. :)
