We offer free initial consultations so that you can get clear on your legal options. Call us today to learn more about how we can help you.
Our Chicago Slip and Fall Injury Attorneys Fight for Fair Compensation
Our law firm can accurately assess both your current and ongoing accident-related losses so we can seek what you deserve. We will work closely with your doctors to understand the extent of your injury and how it will affect your life going forward.
For example, we may need to seek future medical expenses and reduced earning capacity if your injury leads to permanent impairment. You may never be able to earn your pre-injury income and may need home health aid for months or even years. Your injuries may warrant awards for these losses, and we will fight for them.
Other damages you may seek in a premises liability case include:
- Pain and suffering
- Loss of quality of life
- Home modifications
- Lost income if you had to take time off work
- Current medical expenses, including emergency room visits, hospital stays, and surgeries
- Wrongful death damages if you lost a loved one

In premises liability cases, you usually have two options for recovery: filing an insurance claim or a personal injury lawsuit. Our slip and fall attorneys in Chicago can determine what the best strategy is for you and handle all the legal legwork involved.
We can help by:
- Investigating your slip and fall accident
- Identifying a liable party, such as a private property owner, government agency, or store owner
- Gathering evidence of negligence, such as incident reports and inspection reports
- Handling all the necessary paperwork for your claim or lawsuit
- Communicating with the liable party, their insurer, and their representatives
- Negotiating a settlement with an insurer
You can focus on healing from your injury while we take care of the legal process. You can discuss your case in a free, no-obligation consultation. Call us today to get started.
You Have a Deadline to File a Slip and Fall Injury Lawsuit
Our slip and fall accident lawyers can determine how long you have to file a personal injury lawsuit. According to 735 ILCS 5/13-202, you usually only have two years. This deadline may have some exceptions, though. For example, if you are suing a government agency, it is usually shorter.
The sooner you get in touch with our lawyers, the better we can protect your right to take legal action. Keep in mind that if you miss this deadline, you risk losing your chance to seek compensation and may have no legal recourse against a liable party or their insurer.
We can work to streamline the legal process as much as possible and help you meet any important deadlines.

Do Not Delay Seeking Medical Attention After a Slip and Fall Accident
Nothing is more important than your health. If you delay or forgo medical treatment for your slip and fall injury, it can make it harder for you to recover. It can also negatively affect your personal injury claim or lawsuit.
For instance, an insurer may argue that your injuries are not severe or that you contributed to them.
See a doctor and follow through with your treatment plan, especially if you suffered severe injuries, such as:
- Bone fractures
- Head injuries
- Spinal cord injuries
- Internal organ damage
- Traumatic brain injuries
Protect your health and your case by prioritizing your medical care and working with a slip and fall injury attorney.
