Although many people think that personal injury cases result only from vehicular accidents, animal bites or workplace incidents, slip and fall accidents are often the basis for a personal injury suit. Your skilled Atlanta accident lawyer from the law offices of Kaufman Law, will advise you if your slip and fall accident may have been caused by the negligence of a property owner or work site owner, the carelessness of a supervisor or even the recklessness of the government in the case of a broken or icy sidewalk.
Atlanta Accident Lawyer Prosecutes Slip & Fall Cases
If a slip and fall case is successful, either because both parties have agreed to a settlement out of court or if the plaintiff has won at trial, the plaintiff is entitled to recover damages from the defendant. Since the laws pertaining to personal injury claims vary greatly within the United States, the damages that can be claimed will depend on the laws of the particular state. The plaintiff may be able to claim for a number of costs and losses associated with the accident; special damages, general damages and punitive damages. Your Kaufman Law Atlanta accident lawyer will give you expert counsel as to how you should proceed with your slip and fall lawsuit.
Factors that play a part in determining the amount of compensation awarded include where the incident occurred, the severity of the injuries, the defendant's wealth and/or level of insurance coverage, any negligence of the injured party and your attorney's ability in prosecuting personal injury claims. If the case goes to trial, much will also depend on the sympathy of the jury and judge.
