Arlington Heights Premises Liability Attorneys

Lawyers in Cook County, IL for Slip and Fall Injuries, Daycare Injuries, and More

In the realm of personal injury law, much of the focus is often on motor vehicle accidents, and for good reason. Each year, millions of Americans are injured in car accidents and truck accidents, many of which are extremely serious. However, at Newland & Newland, LLP, our experienced personal injury attorneys realize that falls are actually the leading cause of non-fatal injuries requiring medical attention nationwide. More than 8 million people visit the emergency room due to slips, trips, and falls every year. When you fall on another's property, the principles of premises liability could entitle you to compensation for your injuries.

Premises Liability in Northern Illinois

Premises liability law refers to the collective body of statutes and case law that holds property owners and occupants responsible for keeping those who enter the property safe. The law provides that owners and occupants owe a duty of care to guests, visitors, and even trespassers in some situations. Property owners must take all reasonable precautions and make reasonable efforts to prevent potentially dangerous conditions from causing injury. If eliminating a hazard is not possible, the property owner is responsible for notifying and warning those who enter the property. A failure in either situation could result in the property owner assuming legal liability for any injuries sustained.
