Businesses like grocery stores and restaurants present unique dangers to customers because of the number of people that come and go and the products these businesses constantly handle. Freezers and refrigerators can leak, food and drinks can spill, and boxes and carts can be left unattended. These businesses owe a duty to keep their property safe for their customers. At the very least, businesses must warn customers of dangers or take basic steps to make the property safer. Slip-and-fall and trip-and-fall lawsuits require a significant amount of investigation because Texas law requires you to prove the business knew, or should have known, about the dangerous condition.
Do I Need To Hire A Lawyer?
Yes, you need to hire a lawyer. If you have been injured because of someone’s wrongdoing, there is a good chance you will have to face an insurance company. You should not fight the insurance company alone. The insurance company does not have to be fair or reasonable with you, and its number one priority is to settle your claim for as little as possible; or worse, convince you that you are not entitled to any compensation. When you hire Perdue & Kidd, you are hiring a team of experts who know the tricks and lies that insurance companies use to try to diminish the value of your claim.
