A premises liability accident is when a person gets injured on another party’s property. When this happens, as long as the injured party is not a trespasser, Illinois law allows the injured party to sue the owner of the property for being responsible for negligence and causing their injury and any damages that occurred. There are various types of responsible parties in premises liability cases. One common type of responsible party are business owners.

We often hear of accidents occurring on a business’s property, whether it be a falling object from the ceiling, a slip and fall, trip and fall, or something else of the like. Business owners owe invitees and licensees the highest duty of care and second highest duty of care when they enter the premises, respectively. When the business does not keep up with this duty of care and an individual is injured on their property, they can likely be found liable for negligence in court. Many businesses have insurance coverage for premises liability since it is such a common occurrence.
