Questions people ask
Do I have to prove the owner knew about the danger?
Generally you have to show the owner knew, or should have known if they'd checked properly. That's why photos and witnesses matter so much.
I fell at work. Is it the same?
No. If you fell while working, it's a workers' comp case. We help with that too.
