Landlord Tenant Lawyer
Sims Law Firm Landlord Tenant Attorney
At Sims Law Firm, Ltd., we handle landlord/tenant disputes including both eviction actions as well as attempting to resolve problems before they end up in court.
If you are a landlord, you need to be aware that in Illinois the law relating to evictions can be very technical. Thus, if you believe that you are going to have to evict a tenant, we recommend that you contact us as early in the process as possible. This helps ensure that you comply with the requirements imposed by law. This usually results in a faster, more streamlined eviction process.
If you are contacting us about a possible eviction, please gather the following documents and information:
- The lease
- A statement of the sums owed by the tenant
- Any notices that you have served on the tenant
- Any correspondence between you and the tenant
However, do not send any of these documents to us until after you talk to one of our attorneys on the telephone.
