The Incident
On Friday, February 26, 2016, Cantor Injury Law represented a 15-year-old boy who was seriously injured in an ATV accident in Jerseyville, Illinois, near the Missouri border. Our young client had been hired by adults to shuttle guests to and from an adult party using the property owner’s ATV. Unfortunately, while performing this task, the ATV flipped, causing him to suffer a painful foot fracture. The injury required medical attention and left the minor dealing with the physical and emotional toll of the accident. Learn how we won this settlement for a minor injured In an ATV accident.
