Where ATV Accidents Happen in Logan County
You don’t need to be in the mountains to face off-road dangers. We’ve helped clients injured in:
- Farmland trails near Beason and Elkhart, where muddy slopes and washouts create sudden hazards.
- Wooded back roads around the Salt Creek corridor in Lincoln and Chestnut.
- Rural ATV routes used by hunters and farmers near Emden, New Holland, and Middletown.
- Community paths and access roads in Latham and Mt. Pulaski, where unregulated riding is common.
- Industrial outskirts of Lincoln, where utility vehicles and off-road ATVs frequently mix near warehouses and storage yards.
These areas lack the safety measures seen on public roads. Riders often deal with rough terrain, low visibility, and unexpected obstacles.
Why ATV Accidents Happen in Central Illinois
Logan County sees its fair share of crashes due to:
- Rollovers on uneven terrain or soft ground, common near rural drainage ditches or creek crossings near Union Cemetery Road.
- Inexperienced teen riders, especially during harvest season or weekend outings near Eminence Township.
- Unmarked trail hazards, like fencing, brush piles, or equipment left on farm access roads.
- Defective vehicles, including steering and suspension failures.
- Shared trail usage, where horses, hunters, and ATVs use the same land in places like Laenna Township.
These accidents often happen far from help, making medical and legal support even more important.
For a free legal consultation, call 312-261-5656Who Might Be Responsible?
We’ll help you figure out who’s legally accountable:
- Landowners, if you were hurt on unsafe or poorly marked private land.
- Other riders, in group rides that went wrong.
- ATV manufacturers, for defective design or poor construction.
- Event organizers, when accidents happen at unregulated rides.
Whether you were injured near Illinois Route 10, in East Lincoln Township, or along a family farm trail in Lawndale, we’ve got the tools and experience to dig deep into your case.
What Can You Be Compensated For?
Our ATV Injury Claim Attorney team can help recover:
- Emergency care costs, including ambulance rides to Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital in Lincoln.
- Ongoing rehab and physical therapy, especially for joint or back injuries requiring regular sessions at Lincoln HealthCare Specialists or Springfield Clinic Lincoln.
- Lost wages, for those who can’t return to farming, factory work, or heavy equipment jobs in places like Atlanta, Mt. Pulaski, or Emden.
- Pain and emotional distress, especially when the crash causes lasting trauma.
- Damaged ATV and gear, including trailers and helmets.
We don’t just check boxes—we build strong, customized cases that speak to your specific loss.

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. :)
