Types of Premises Liability Cases in Chicago

Slip-and-Fall Accidents

Slips and falls occur when property owners fail to address hazards like wet floors, uneven surfaces, or poor lighting.

Trip-and-Fall Accidents

Trips can happen due to obstacles in walkways, unsecured rugs, or uneven steps. When these hazards are not properly managed, they can result in serious injuries for visitors.

Inadequate Security

When a property lacks proper security measures, such as lighting, locks, or surveillance, visitors may become victims of violent crimes like assault or robbery.

Dog Bites & Animal Attacks

If a property owner fails to restrain a dangerous animal or does not warn visitors of its presence, they may be held liable for injuries caused by dog bites or other animal attacks.

Swimming Pool Accidents

Lack of safety features, such as fences, lifeguards, or warning signs, around swimming pools can lead to drowning or serious injuries.

Toxic Substance Exposure

Premises that expose visitors to harmful substances like mold, asbestos, or chemicals can result in health complications if not properly addressed.

Falling Objects

In some cases, objects like construction materials or debris may fall and cause injury to visitors. Property owners are responsible for securing potential hazards on their premises.

Elevator & Escalator Accidents

Faulty or poorly maintained elevators and escalators can lead to accidents involving falls, crushing injuries, or entrapment.

Fire Hazards

When a property lacks proper fire safety measures such as functioning alarms, sprinklers, or clearly marked exits, the owner may be liable for injuries or deaths caused by fire-related accidents.

Building Code Violations

Premises that do not comply with local building codes, such as faulty wiring, broken railings, or inadequate structural support, may lead to serious injuries.

Snow & Ice Accidents

Failure to clear snow and ice from walkways and entryways can result in slip-and-fall accidents.
