The weather in Illinois is brutal right now. The low in Chicago today is one degree. I guess that’s better than the minus four degrees we experienced yesterday.

With the cold weather of course comes snow and ice. That leads to a lot of slip and fall injuries unfortunately.

Regrettably a lot of the people who call us with these injuries we can not help. That’s because of an Illinois law that says that if you fall due to the natural accumulation of snow or ice and sustain an injury, the property owner isn’t liable.

What does natural mean? Generally…
