At Mancini Law Group P.C., we believe in Maximum Justice. Maximum Results.
Slip and fall claims are a type of personal injury case that often occurs when a business owner is negligent in maintaining their property.
When we can prove the property owner or manager’s negligence or recklessness led our clients to suffer a significant injury, they may be held legally responsible.
In Illinois, the law states that before we can seek compensation for our clients, we must prove one of two things occurred:
It is important to preserve any evidence you can from the scene after your injury occurs, including pictures or video of the hazardous conditions, and any witness accounts and/or contact information, so they may be contacted to give an official statement later, so we can prove whether the unsafe condition was permanent or temporary.
If it was the latter, the length of time the danger existed may impact the direction of your case.
Likewise, the state of Illinois has a modified comparative negligence rule, which states that if you were part of the problem—meaning negligently responsible in part for your slip and fall injuries—any damages awarded during your personal injury claim will be reduced according to the percentage of fault.
Simply put, if you were 20% at fault for the slip and fall that occurred, the property owner may only be held liable for 80% of the overall damages. In financial terms, that means if your medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering totaled $50,000, the property owner may only have to pay $40,000, which is the total minus the 20% that represents your share of fault.
If you were deemed more than 50% liable for the slip and fall accident occurs, you may not recover any damages at all.

I would strongly not recommend this firm. My mother was involved in a CTA bus accident, and her case was left open for over five years with little to no progress and almost no communication. Months before my mother passed away, the firm was explicitly informed that she was seriously ill and that her health was rapidly declining. At that time, we were told she did not need to take any action other than provide her daughters’ contact information. Despite knowing her condition, the firm failed to act. They did not secure her testimony, did not move the case forward, and did not take basic, time-sensitive steps that should have been taken before her passing. After my mother died, the firm then claimed they were dropping the case because she was no longer alive to testify regarding her pain and suffering, a situation that could have been avoided had they done their job. Even worse, we were never informed of alternative legal options such as a Survival Action or Wrongful Death claim. That lack of legal guidance is unacceptable. Allowing a case to sit stagnant for years, ignoring clear warning signs about a client’s health, and then abandoning the case after her death shows a serious lack of diligence, urgency, and accountability. Losing a parent is devastating. Having their legal representation fail them only compounded that pain. Families deserve competence, transparency, and proactive legal advocacy. This firm provided none of that.Posted on Naveen NanuTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Melissa was so helpful.

I cannot say enough great things about my attorney and his assistant Melissa; Who was absolutely AMAZING. This is not the first time I’ve used them, and once again they exceeded my expectations. From the very beginning, they were professional, efficient, and extremely knowledgeable. Melissa kept me informed throughout the entire process and was always quick to respond to my questions. What truly impressed me was how smoothly everything was handled and how fast the turnaround was to receive my check. Their dedication and attention to detail made a stressful situation much easier to get through. I am very grateful for their hard work and highly recommend them to anyone needing legal representation after an accident. Thank you Mancini Law Group!!Posted on Crystal VelazquezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Attorney Gina did a wonderful job handling my case. She was able to get a settlement before going to arbitration and avoided all the hassle of speaking in person about my case. I would 100% recommend Mancini law group to my family and friends.
