Getting you the money you deserve.
Injuries from a slip and fall accident have a large range of severity, and in some cases may seem as if a person is not injured at all immediately following the accident. However, several days after the fall occurs the injuries become more painful and what a person thought was just a bruise turns into a major injury.
In other instances, the pain is immediate and an individual can feel it once the accident occurs. In such cases, injuries such as torn ligaments (examples being torn ACLs, tears in rotator cuffs) can be felt immediately. These injuries require immediate medical attention and usually long term physical therapy.
