Illinois comparative fault — and why it matters locally
Illinois follows a modified comparative negligence rule: your compensation is reduced by your share of fault, and if you are found more than 50% at fault you recover nothing. Because of this, insurers often argue that the injured person shared the blame. A careful investigation of how the crash happened helps answer those arguments.

How long do I have to file a slip and fall claim in Illinois?

Do I have to go to court in Cook County?
Many slip and fall claims resolve without a trial. If a lawsuit is filed, the courthouse depends on where the crash happened, where the parties live, and the size of the claim. For Morton Grove, that may be the Skokie Courthouse (Second Municipal District). We can explain which court applies to your case.
