You are walking on a sidewalk, all of a sudden you find yourself falling and you try to stop your fall but the next thing you know you are on the ground. You try to move but the pain from your fractured wrist is overpowering. A stranger asks you, “Are you ok” You say, “Yes”, but really mean “No” but the pain and the shock have you confused. It turns out that you fell because there was a defect in the sidewalk that you were walking on. This is one example of a fall down accident.
Other Fall Down Accidents are falls in supermarkets, stores, or malls for defects, failure to maintain a property or failure to properly clean snow and/or ice.
If you are injured, make sure that you seek medical attention and that you follow up after you receive emergency care with the recommended specialist. The quality of your initial care can make a big difference in your recovery from your injuries.
We offer help in understanding your insurance coverage, your rights to receive medical treatment, payment of medical bills, temporary disability benefits and ultimately a monetary compensation for your pain and suffering due to your injury.
