Slip and fall lawyer Illinois: your deadline
The first thing an Illinois slip and fall lawyer checks is the clock. You have two years from the day you fell to file, under 735 ILCS 5/13-202.
Talks with the owner's insurer do not stop that clock. Only a lawsuit filed in court does.
How Illinois splits the blame
Illinois lets you collect if you were half to blame or less. Above that, the claim is barred. The rule is in 735 ILCS 5/2-1116.
Say a jury values the case at $40,000 and finds you 20 percent to blame. You would receive $32,000.
Public property in Illinois
A suit against a city, county or other local government has its own limit: one year under 745 ILCS 10/8-101. State property follows a separate process, so call the same week you fall.
What your Illinois case is worth
The value comes from your bills, lost pay, how long you hurt, and the fault split above.
Answer four quick questions; the Illinois rule is already set.
How Illinois fall lawyers charge
Fall lawyers in Illinois work on contingency. They take a share only if they recover money for you, and nothing if they do not.
