Slip & Fall Accidents

Slip and Fall Settlements can vary widely based on many different factors (Injuries, medical treatment, medical bills, types of medical procedures done, insurance company of the adverse party, policy limits, existence of a medical payment policy, liability, cause of the accident, loss of income, etc.).  More important than knowing what the average personal injury claim is worth, you should want to know what your claim is worth.  To understand the value of a claim it is best to talk to an attorney that has experience in balancing all of these factors, such as Steven Daneshgar and Daneshgar Law.

When there is a workplace accident, it is important to understand if you have a worker’s compensation claim, a personal injury claim, or both.  Compensation received and medical treatment rendered can be widely different based on the classification of what type of accident it is.  It is important to get an experienced professional to help you understand your options and what type of claim you have.
