Some cases settle before court.
Others go to trial.
DepositLaw has successfully resolved renters' claims against
landlords
in and out of court; on an individual basis and for
entire classes of tenants renting from the same
owner or management company.
If a case cannot be settled then a trial must be had (or
mandatory arbitration). Renters should be prepared to testify
honestly and provide evidence
related to their tenancy. A landlord who loses at
trial in most cases must pay both damages and also the renter's court
costs and attorney fees.
DepositLaw also represents aggrieved renters in
class action
litigation. Sometimes many
renters at the same apartment complex allege the
same illegal practice. Examples of pending and
settling class action cases filed by DepositLaw are
shown below. If you rent or rented at any of these
properties,
contact
DepositLaw.
Renters who represent their class
(1) do neighbors a
favor, (2)
motivate landlords to abide, and
(3)
represent the rights of all Illinois renters.
