Slip and Falls on Public Sidewalks
An elderly woman tripped on a piece of sidewalk that was not well seated in the ground. When she attempted to get some sort of compensation for her medical bills from the city, she was ignored.
Slip and Falls are very common, not just in private business such as stores or restaurants but also in public places such as sidewalks and government buildings. Unfortunately, insurance companies and defense attorneys all too commonly attempt to ignore claims. In Florida, insurance companies and attorneys who are defending someone who could possibly be liable must make a good faith effort to come to an agreement or at least see what occurred.
This is where having an experienced attorney can help. We will not let insurance companies and defense attorneys ignore your claim and we’ll make them pay more if they do so. If you are ever injured in a slip and fall type of case, please do not hesitate and call us immediately.
