In some premises liability cases, the evidence is quickly removed and it is of utmost importance that you contact the firm as quickly as possible after the incident. This will ensure that the evidence is documented and you do not have to fight for your claim without important evidence. If possible, get the names, addresses and phone numbers of any witnesses to the accident as the documentation in such cases is a crucial matter. Never accept a "settlement" that is offered to you quickly by either the property owner or the insurance company, as it is likely far lower than you could expect when you are represented by an attorney. Ensure that you get immediate medical attention, particularly when head or skull injuries are involved. These injuries can have long term effects and should be carefully watched.
