Premises Liability Injury Lawyer Video

Transcript

Let's talk about premises liability or slip and fall cases. People don't understand how difficult these cases are because of the protections that are given landowners. Landowners are provided several defenses, like open and obvious, and just general lack of knowledge on the behalf of the person who gets hurt is a defense. In other words, if you fall and there's water on the floor, is the store responsible? And the answer is probably not. If you don't know how it got there or how long it had been there, you're not gonna win that case. Now, a lawyer can go in and maybe get the video and find out how long it had been there. We do that. A lawyer can talk to you about how you might talk about it. A lawyer might talk to you about why you didn't see it. Sometimes people have a shopping cart in front of them that has goods in it and they're looking, and they're not really looking at the floor. But if you answer the question in the wrong way, like why didn't you see it? Well, I don't know. And you don't have a reason, then you can lose that case. So remember, these cases are tricky and they are designed by law to be tricky. Landowners are given more protections than are people who fall. So always talk to a lawyer. If you get hurt in a store, talk to a lawyer and let us kind of help you see the big picture so that we can help you win the case.
