People need to think carefully and seriously before filing a COVID-19 lawsuit. As of now, in Illinois there have been almost 200 COVID-19 lawsuits filed in the State of Illinois. It’s a balance between righting a wrong and taking responsibility for one’s actions. With many businesses struggling to stay afloat, it is important that it is not a baseless liability lawsuit. A valid lawsuit is important to pursue, but an unjustifiable one can destroy a business, forcing them to close, lay off employees, disrupting local supply chains, and potentially limiting the production of essential goods.
