| slip and fall attorneys |
We often hear about slip-and-fall lawsuits filed against
large corporations such as Wal-Mart and Sears. As New York slip-and-fall attorney, we often talk to victims who have suffered serious injuries because
they slipped and fell on spilled juice, soda or liquid detergent on a
supermarket aisle. Often, these stores are owned by retail giants that have an
enormous amount of resources and the firepower it takes to engage in and win
long, tough legal battles. These corporations have very likely faced hundreds
of premises liability lawsuits relating to slip-and-fall injuries. If you have
suffered a slip-and-fall injury at the supermarket or at a location owned by a
large corporation, it is important that you understand the challenges that lie
ahead, should you decide to file a lawsuit.
Corporations are
Formidable Opponents
There is absolutely no question that large corporations are
formidable opponents in court. These companies have teams of defense lawyers on
their side who are paid very well to ensure that the corporation's best
interests are protected at all times. These are attorneys who will not hesitate
to take a court to trial. These companies have even been known to fight cases
in small claims court and to appeal verdicts in relatively small cases. The
lawyers in these corporations have enormous resources available to them in terms
of databases and electronic networks that provide them with up-to-date
information regarding key verdicts, court rulings and defense strategies.
The large corporations also pay their attorneys on a
case-by-case basis. This increases the probability that the case will go to
trial and decreases the chances of a case settling out-of-court. In most cases,
these corporations will fight to the very end. The only instances where a
settlement is possible is when the evidence is crystal clear during the discovery
stage, which shows that the company was clearly at fault.
The Need for a Strong
Trial Lawyer
In premises liability claim, the claimant must prove that
the accident and resulting injuries occurred as the result of the property
owner's negligence -- that a dangerous condition existed on the property, which
the property owner failed to warn visitors about or failed to fix. Especially
in cases that involve large corporations, it is critical that injured victims
retain the services of an aggressive trial lawyer on their side, who will
tireless fight to protect their rights. The attorney should have the skill and
experience it takes to settle the case or be prepared to go to trial and win.
