As anyone who has ever visited a doctor’s office can attest, medical bills are expensive. But large bills aren’t the only negative results of an injury. Depending on the extent of your injury, you could experience varying amounts of pain, miss multiple days of work, or even no longer be able to work to support yourself and your family.
​
If your injury occurred because of someone else’s negligence, you deserve compensation for your losses. Our personal injury lawyers at Shay & Associates Law Firm, LLC can help. Schedule your free consultation with us today.
Personal Injuries
Injuries can occur anywhere — on public property, at the grocery store, or on someone else’s property. Often, these injuries could have been prevented if the owner of the property had taken proper care of the premises.
​
For example, store owners have a responsibility to keep their walks shoveled in the winter and their floors free of slippery spots all year round. If you were not adequately warned of such dangerous spots and tripped and fell as a result, you could sue for damages.
