Statutory remedyUp to 2× deposit due + costs/fees
The statute describes twice the amount of the security deposit due, together with court costs and reasonable attorney’s fees, upon the required court finding.
This is not automatic
The remedy depends on a court finding and the statutory elements. A missed deadline or disputed charge should not automatically be labeled “bad faith” without the facts needed by the statute.
Check local law too. Illinois statewide law is the baseline. Chicago and other municipalities can add renter protections, deadlines or remedies.
