Why Do I Need an Attorney?
Slip and fall cases generally fall under negligence law, which can be very confusing. An injured party’s case and their ability to collect compensation will depend on numerous factors including:
- Whether or not a landowner owed the injured party any duty to keep them safe
- Whether or not the injured party is classified as a trespasser, licensee, or invitee on the premises where their accident occurred.
Being successful in slip and fall lawsuits may depend on legal technicalities and nuanced arguments that must be supported by convincing evidence and arguments presented by an attorney.
An experienced attorney can help you understand the law, as well as what evidence is relevant to and will strengthen your case. They can also identify who may be liable to you for your injuries. A knowledgeable attorney will thoroughly consult with both opposing counsel and the adversary’s representatives to ensure that your rights are protected and that you receive the maximum amount of compensation you are entitled to.
