Jonathan Rosenfeld

Strategic, Compassionate, and Unrelenting in Fall Injury Litigation

Jonathan Rosenfeld, Chicago Injury Lawyer, is the driving force behind Slip & Fall Injury Lawyers and a recognized leader in Chicago premises liability litigation .Over the past two decades, he has recovered millions of casesfor victims of falls caused by unsafe property conditions, earning a reputation for precision, grit, and results.

Jonathan’s practice is rooted in helping ordinary people stand up to powerful insurance companies and negligent property owners, grounded in Illinois premises liability law. 

Whether it’s a senior who fell in a nursing home hallway, a shopper injured in a store aisle, or a tenant harmed by a defective stairwell, Jonathan’s methodical investigations and powerful advocacy consistently lead to high-value recoveries.

He has litigated and settled fall cases involving:

• Grocery stores that failed to clean up spills
• Hospitals where patients suffered avoidable falls
• Apartment buildings with non-compliant stairs and railings
• Businesses that ignored snow and ice maintenance
• Nursing homes that failed to implement fall-prevention protocols

Jonathan doesn’t believe in one-size-fits-all representation. Every case begins with a deep dive into the facts, inspecting accident scenes, reviewing maintenance logs, consulting experts, and understanding how an injury has disrupted a client’s life.

As a premises liability attorney and trial lawyer admitted to the Illinois bar in 2001, Jonathan regularly appears before the Circuit Court of Cook County.

His commitment is simple: clear answers, full transparency, and tireless pursuit of maximum compensation.
