What happens if a Notice of Violation is ignored?

If you ignore the Building Code Violation Notice, a hearing officer may enter a Default Judgment against you based on the evidence presented. A "Default Judgment" is similar to a Judge's order in that it can be used to place a lien on your property, garnish your wages and/or affect your credit. The city usually requests that the maximum fine be imposed in default matters.

Contact our office as soon as possible if you have been cited by the City of Chicago. Unfortunately, my office receives calls all the time from homeowners that ignored the notices and now face thousands of dollars in fines or other penalties. Don't let this happen to you.
