How Chicago Commercial Cases Move Through the Courts

The division handling a commercial case generally depends on the relief requested and the amount in controversy, meaning the monetary value at issue. These categories describe the court system in general and don’t determine where a particular dispute should be filed.

Claims Seeking Monetary Damages

The Law Division generally hears Chicago civil suits seeking monetary damages above $30,000. Its docket includes commercial litigation, breach of contract, and breach of warranty cases. Claims under $30,000 generally proceed through the Civil Division.

The Law Division also maintains specialized Commercial Calendars that assign commercial disputes to designated judges. Most Law Division cases, including commercial matters, are filed and tried at the principal civil courthouse serving Chicago.

Claims Seeking Equitable Relief

The Chancery Division generally hears equity matters. Equitable relief asks a court to order or prohibit conduct rather than award monetary damages alone. These matters can include requests for injunctions, partnership or corporate dissolution, and claims alleging breaches of fiduciary duty.

Some disputes involve both financial claims and requests for equitable relief, so the procedural path depends on the pleadings, parties, and remedies sought. During an initial consultation, a business can explain the conflict and its immediate concerns so our counsel can assess the available representation.
