Choosing a Slip and Fall Attorney

Answer:

We got a call from someone recently who was injured as a result of a slip and fall and was asking how to go about hiring an attorney to help them with that slip and fall case. There are a couple of things to consider. One is you want to make sure that you find an attorney whose core focus is on injury law. You may have worked with another attorney in the past who’s handled something like maybe a divorce or a will and think that you can just reach out to that attorney and get their help on your slip and fall, but it is really important to find an attorney whose core focus is on slip and fall cases, who knows how to handle these types of cases, and who spends their days handling these types of cases. You also want to make sure you find somebody who is experienced and has a proven track record of success in handling these types of cases. They will know how to work up your case in a way that benefits you and ensures that you get the best recovery possible.

Finally, you want to make sure that you find a trial attorney. Trial attorneys are attorneys that go to trial. They take the case to trial and in front of a jury. Not all attorneys are willing to take a case or even capable of taking a case to trial and trying your case to a jury. You want to make sure that you find somebody that can do that. They will work up your case differently from the beginning and in a way that will allow them to pursue the case through court and present the case to a jury if that’s necessary. If you have any questions about finding the best attorney to help you in your slip and fall case, give us a call. We’d be happy to talk to you about that.
