slip and fall

[p hershey]

I fell on the ice at a local mall. A security guard saw me on the ground and thought it was odd but he kept driving. I tore cartilage in my knee. My doctor advised me to have surgery now (before it really bothers me) instead of a year from now when my knee will be giving me trouble. My question is---do I need a lawyer? What if I still have problems after the first surgery and need a second? What should I do?

 

[I AM ALWAYS LIABLE]

My response:

All because you fell, and injured yourself, does not mean that the property owners were negligent.

Ice is a natural condition, and property owners are not insurers of your safety. Unless you can prove "Notice" and "Negligence", I'm afraid you'll come up empty on this one.

You should discuss this with an attorney to see what, if anything, can be done.

Good luck to you.
