No Fees Until YOU Win

I spoke with Ian ( lead attorney ) this morning about a possible case. Although my case wasn’t strong, he literally took an hour to discuss and give law based facts as to how a case works and why my case would be a challenge. Ian is a true gentleman and has an approach that is unmatched! If you have a possible case do yourself a favor and reach out to him… it will be the most honest answer you can get during a tough situation. Good Luck with your journey!!

I got rear-ended in the In-N-Out drive thru. It wasn’t a very high speed accident. But by the time I got home I could barely stand up. My back has been a little fragile ever since the military and the impact of that minor accident did a number on me.

The damage to my car was only $500 (tough Jeep bumper). Luckily, I knew not to trust the insurance company and that they would use the minor damage to screw me over.

I called Sam & Ash on a weekend and was immediately guided what to do and taken care of.

Not only would I have got a worse result (and probably not recovered fully), but it would have been so much MORE DIFFICULT if I did it on my own. Instead, they handled literally everything except going to my appointments. When the chiro stopped giving me progress, they helped me find a physical therapist. My result? I’m pretty close to 100% recovered and they put close to 10k in my pocket (even after medical bills). Incredible. I don’t think I could have got a few hundred in my pocket on my own.

Ian McTaggart, managing partner of Sam & Ash LLP, is an excellent lawyer. I was very satisfied with his knowledge, professionalism and candor. Plus, he quickly returned my phone calls, was easily available and gave me expert advice on a rather tricky case. I highly recommend Ian, and Sam & Ash LLP, to anyone in Southern California seeking personal injury representation.

We’re Here To Help

Slip and fall accidents are often brushed off, but they can cause serious injuries like broken bones, muscle strains, or even head injuries. Many people don’t realize these accidents are often the result of someone else’s negligence.

If you were hurt because a property owner failed to fix or warn you about a hazard, you shouldn’t have to carry the burden alone. We’re here to help you pursue the compensation you deserve and support you every step of the way. Contact us today for a free conversation about your case.

Filing A Claim For A Slip & Fall Accident

If you were hurt in a slip and fall accident, you typically have two years from the date of your injury to file a lawsuit in California. Missing this deadline could mean losing your right to seek compensation. These cases take time to build, so it’s important to speak with a lawyer as soon as possible. The sooner you contact us, the sooner we can get to work on your case.

The value of a slip and fall case depends on how serious your injuries are and how the accident has affected your life. We’ll investigate what happened, determine who’s responsible, and work to recover compensation for medical expenses, future treatment and care, lost wages, reduced earning ability, and pain, suffering, and emotional distress.

What To Do After

If you’ve suffered a slip and fall accident, taking immediate steps can make a big difference in your case. Here’s the key steps to follow:

Responders will secure the area, control the situation, and prepare an official report, ensuring proper documentation for any necessary follow-up.

Take photo and video of the scene. Store reports, important items, and any records securely so nothing useful to your case is lost or misplaced.

A prompt exam can uncover unseen injuries and create important documentation for your claim

Attend all follow-up appointments, complete recommended treatments, and participate in any necessary therapies.

If the incident occurred in public, notify nearby people, business owners, or file an incident report.

Do not wait to get the legal advice you need. We can start investigating the accident, preserving evidence, and protecting you from day one.

Record detailed notes about how the accident occurred and track symptoms, treatments, and recollections related to your recovery process.

Refrain from posting about your incident—anything posted online could impact your claim.

Answering Your Questions

Pursuing a claim is an important option to consider. The good news is that a slip and fall case doesn’t have to be personal. The process of filing a claim on your friend’s homeowner’s insurance policy is the same as if you were injured in a restaurant. And your status as a guest cannot be used to deny your claim.

The insurance company may attempt to deny your claim if you were drinking alcohol at the time of the accident. However, intoxication is not a complete defense. Under the principles of comparative fault, your claim for compensation may still move forward so long as the property owner is considered to hold greater fault for the accident than you.

The insurance company will want to know what kind of shoes you were wearing at the time of the accident so they can blame you for your choice of footwear. But slip and fall accidents are caused by many factors. It’s best to contact a lawyer before divulging information about your case to an adjuster. The right personal injury lawyer will use all the facts to support your claim for compensation while keeping irrelevant information private whenever possible.
