Immediate Legal Help After an ATV Crash in Kankakee County
ATV crashes in Kankakee County often occur in:
- Kankakee River State Park, with its rugged trails and riverside drop-offs.
- Rural farmland around Limestone, Buckingham, Otto Township, and Irwin, where trail hazards go unmarked.
- Private access roads near Momence, St. Anne, and Chebanse, used by both recreational and work riders.
- Back roads in Pembroke Township and Sumner Township, where poor trail conditions and lack of maintenance lead to frequent crashes.
Local first responders from rural volunteer departments may face delays, especially in isolated areas. We work swiftly to preserve crash scene details and begin legal filings.
Common Causes of ATV Crashes in Kankakee County
Our firm investigates all potential causes, including:
- Rollover accidents on hilly or uneven terrain in Bourbonnais Township and Pilot Township.
- Crash hazards on hunting or logging trails near Sun River Terrace, Union Hill, and Bonfield.
- Malfunctioning brakes or steering on older or modified ATVs frequently used in farming.
- Rider inexperience, especially during seasonal outings by teens in rural zones.
- Collisions with livestock fencing, irrigation setups, or crop debris, common near Herscher and Grant Park.
We’re well-equipped to prove negligence or equipment failure in these complex, rural accidents.
Who Can Be Held Liable in an ATV Crash?
Depending on your case, responsibility may fall on:
- Landowners, for failing to post warnings or maintain trails.
- Manufacturers, for defective ATV components or design flaws.
- Reckless riders, especially in group rides or shared-use areas.
- Organizers of trail events, if they fail to enforce safety standards.
We’ve helped victims hurt near Rock Creek, Kankakee River trails, Preserve Access Routes, and remote rural zones around Bonfield, Essex, and Union Hill.

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. Scorpion Solar2024-10-31Trustindex 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!!! 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. :)
