Chicago Premises Liability Lawyer

Property owners owe you the basic courtesy of not putting your safety at risk. To hold a negligent property owner accountable for your injuries, team up with a Chicago premises liability attorney.

Keeping a property safe for visitors is not a lofty goal. It’s a principle of basic property ownership, and you’re right to expect your safety to be protected when you go to the store or visit your neighbor. Unfortunately, guests’ safety is an afterthought for many property owners.

When a property owner’s negligence causes an accident in which you are seriously injured, the owner needs to pay for your damages. But that doesn’t mean he or she will do so voluntarily.

A Chicago premises liability lawyer will represent you in settlement negotiations and in court. Get in touch with our team at Lane Brown, LLC to get the compensation you deserve.

Examples of Chicago Premises Liability Accidents

Who’s at Fault in Premises Liability Cases?

To reach a conclusion, your Chicago premises liability accident lawyer will conduct a thorough investigation of the location, interview witnesses, and even talk to locals who may have experience with the property where you were injured.
