What to Do If You Have Been Injured on Someone Else’s Property

The lawyers at the Atlanta, Georgia office of Zevin & Rosenbloum have been assisting injury victims for over 38 years.  Through this experience, we have seen virtually every conceivable type of premises liability or “slip and fall” case imaginable.  The attorneys at Zevin & Rosenbloum have handled cases involving “slips and falls,” dog bites, defective construction, elevator and escalator injuries, swimming pool injuries, inadequate security claims, as well as numerous other types of premises liability claims.  Our premises liability attorneys have the unique experience to handle any kind of premises claim with any kind of injury.

The first thing you must do if you are injured on someone else’s property is to make sure an incident report is made.  The “slip and fall” lawyers at our Atlanta office have seen many instances where the failure to have an incident report made led to the denial of a claim due to conflicting statements by our clients and the employees of the business or home where the injury occurred.  If your injury occurs at a private home or in an apartment complex, where an incident report is impossible to obtain, try to get the insurance information of the owner prior to leaving the premises.  As with all types of injury cases, obtaining names and contact information (including cellular phone numbers) of all witnesses.

As important as having an incident report is to contact a qualified attorney immediately.  The attorneys at the Atlanta office of Zevin & Rosenbloum can assist you in each and every aspect of your premises liability or “slip and fall” case.  You may contact us by phone at (404) 522-1616 between 8:00 am and 6:00 pm Monday through Friday, or by email at mdr@zrlaw.net 24 hours a day/7 days a week.

NEVER SPEAK TO AN INSURANCE COMPANY OR DEFENDANT WITHOUT FIRST HIRING AN ATTORNEY

If you are injured on another’s property due to their negligence, it is imperative that you see a doctor within the first 24 hours following the accident.  The lawyers at the Atlanta office of Zevin & Rosenbloum recommend that if you feel pain or discomfort at the scene of the car accident, you should be taken to the hospital immediately by ambulance.  Many automobile accident injuries can be disastrous if not treated early.  If you are not taken to the emergency room, our automobile accident lawyers recommend that you see your primary care physician or another licensed physician as soon as possible.
