Pedestrian injury intake for Aurora firms.
Pedestrian cases often involve serious injuries and families writing on the person's behalf. Casestead answers every pedestrian injury inquiry to your firm in about a minute, day or night, and books qualified people with your intake team in Aurora.
What the reply desk asks
Qualifying questions come from your firm's written criteria. For pedestrian injury inquiries, firms usually ask for:
- Date and place
- The vehicle and driver, if known, or a hit-and-run
- Police report
- Injuries, hospital and treatment
- Who is writing
- Whether they have a lawyer
Why the first minute matters
Hit-and-run and crosswalk inquiries often come from relatives in a hospital waiting room. A fast, human reply and a booked call are what they need first.
Follow-up
Families who booked but didn't sign get a follow-up draft that fits the situation, approved by your staff.
Illinois context for intake
The general limitation period for personal-injury negligence claims in Illinois is 2 years. Inquiries about older incidents are flagged for a lawyer instead of being booked like a new case.
Illinois follows modified comparative fault with a 51% bar: a claimant more at fault than the other side generally recovers nothing.
General rules for context only, not legal advice. Exceptions apply (minors, government defendants, discovery rules, recent amendments). Your firm's lawyers decide.
