Warning, this is a “perspective” post for landlords! A Chicago landlord and prospective client called me the other day and said he wanted to kick his tenant out. Being the helpful landlord-tenant attorney I am, I began to discuss the Illinois eviction process. I started to tell him about how he needs to serve a notice of termination of tenancy and the procedures to evict in the Circuit Court of Cook County. He stopped me. He said he wanted to kick the tenant out, literally. Then, I had to stop him.
