What usually happens
Most people brush off a fall. Then the pain doesn’t go away, and the store, the landlord or the city doesn’t call back.
Whoever owns or looks after a property has to keep it reasonably safe. When they don’t, and someone gets hurt, that person may have a claim.
Some falls come with a very short deadline to give written notice, especially falls on city property or on snow and ice. [MARTY TO CONFIRM: the notice deadlines to mention here, in plain English.]
What we do
- Give you a straight answer on whether you have a case.
- Help you keep the right evidence, like photos, names of witnesses and medical notes.
- Send the notices and deal with the insurance company.
- Keep track of the deadlines so you don’t have to.
Your next step
Tell us what happened. If it was recent, the sooner the better, because of those deadlines.
