CHICAGO — An estate administrator is suing Dolce Living Communities Residential, also known as DLC Residential LLC, and Dolce Living Investments LLC, a Florida property owner, citing alleged insufficient measures were taken to prevent injuries and negligence.

Destiny Dowdell, as special administrator of the estate of Kera Rogers, filed a complaint on April 20 in Cook County Circuit Court against the defendants alleging they failed to keep their premises free of mold.

According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that Rogers sustained serious physical injuries from being exposed to toxic mold. The plaintiff holds the defendants responsible because they allegedly failed to warn Rogers regarding the presence of toxic mold on the premises. The suit says that Rogers, an employee of a business located on the premises, contracted illness from the presence of mold, contributing to the deterioration of her health.

The plaintiff seeks judgment against the defendant in an amount greater than $50,000 plus court costs. She is represented by David R. Butzen of Ambrose Butzen Law Group P.C. in Chicago.
