How Much Will It Cost Me to Hire Your Lawyers to Help with My Case?
You will not have to pay any money upfront to get our help. We represent clients with slip and fall accident claims on a contingency-fee basis. With this type of fee arrangement, our legal fees are a percentage of the proceeds from a settlement or court award.
Of course, we have a strong incentive to only invest our time in injury claims that qualify for compensation with our paycheck at stake. We do not get paid until you win.
What Is the Settlement Value of My Slip and Fall Claim?
Every personal injury case is unique, so we cannot throw out a dollar amount that will reflect the monetary value of your claim. The amount of compensation you can pursue will depend on the facts of your situation. We will have to talk to you and investigate your circumstances before we estimate your likely range of money damages.
Here are some examples of the kinds of recovery we have won for our clients:
An Award Could Cover Your Accident-Related Medical Bills
In a negligence case, a successful plaintiff can typically go after the cost of the medical treatment for the injuries. Some of the items usually found in this category:
- The ambulance
- Emergency room
- Hospital
- Doctors
- Surgery
- Diagnostic testing
- Physical therapy
- Prescription drugs
We Will Consider You Future Medical Care When Evaluating Your Losses
We can include the reasonable cost of additional medical services your doctor expects you to need for your injuries. Some examples of these things are:
- Operations
- Skin grafts
- Ongoing physical therapy
- Pain management
Lost Income Due to Being Out of Work Could Be Part of Your Award
If you missed paychecks because of the slip and fall accident, medical treatments, and recuperation time, you have experienced a financial loss. Whether your facts involve lost wages, salary, self-employment, or another form of regular income, you could qualify for this kind of compensation.
We Can Fight for Damages for Diminished Future Earning Capacity
After a significant injury, a person might not be able to perform all their previous work tasks or might experience a loss of strength and stamina. Sometimes people need to reduce their working hours or take a lower-paying job because of their harm from a slip and fall accident. This decrease in future earning ability can be compensable.
Our Team Will Assign a Value to Your Intangible Slip and Fall Losses
Medical bills and lost wages are relatively easy to measure in dollars because they come with a paper trail like doctor bills and employer records. Some types of losses are more challenging to quantify in dollars. Nonetheless, the following are valid damages:
- Disfigurement
- Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
- Pain and suffering
