I fell down on my apartment steps and injured my back. I have so many medical bills, and I am very limited in how much I can work (due to my injury). My landlord refuses to pay for these bills or turn them in to his insurance company. Can someone please advise me on what to do. I live in Indiana. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
My response:
You may have fallen, but a fall does not automatically mean that someone else was "negligent." What or who do you believe was negligent? In other words, why do you believe there was some "fault" with the stairs that caused you to fall? In order to obtain compensation for injuries, someone must be "legally" responsible for your incident and the resulting injuries, before anyone is obligated to pay you.
