Customer Blames Supermarket for Injuries

When people slip and fall, they often believe it was their own fault. In reality, when a property owner fails to maintain their premise safe or fails to warn visitors of potential hazards, the victim may seek compensation for damages incurred.

A woman has filed a lawsuit against a major supermarket chain alleging the store’s negligence led to her slip-and-fall injuries.

The lawsuit alleges that the plaintiff was shopping in the paper products aisle when she suddenly slipped and fell due to a liquid substance on the floor. As a result, the woman says she suffered physical injuries, damages, and incurred medical expenses. According to the claim, the defendant failed to uphold its duty to maintain and keep its premise safe, failed to post signage to warn customers that the area was slippery, and failed to mop up the liquid in a timely manner. The plaintiff seeks a trial by jury and damages up to $50,000.

This plaintiff should be prepared for a long legal battle. Large supermarket chains have high-powered attorneys well versed in how to litigate cases, making it difficult for an innocent victim to receive the compensation he/she may be entitled to obtain. They will drag out the case as long as possible hoping the plaintiff will give up due to financial needs. For those struggling financially to pay additional expenses compounded by lost wages, lawsuit funding may be helpful.

Lawsuit funding is a cash advance giving a plaintiff the staying power necessary to avoid settling for pennies on the dollar. It puts a plaintiff in a better position to fully recover the highest possible settlement. Once an application and supporting documentation is received, Lawsuit Financial will review the merits of the case. If approved, the cash advance can be receive in 24 – 48 hours.

Lawsuit funding does not require a credit check, employment verification, or collateral. Best of all, funds are only repaid when the case settles. If the plaintiff does not win the case, the cash advance is completely waived.

If you have filed a slip and fall lawsuit, are being represented by an attorney, and in need of immediate cash while waiting for compensation in your case, contact Lawsuit Financial to learn more about lawsuit funding and how it can help you and your case.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), over one million Americans suffer a slip, trip, and fall injury and over 17, 000 people die in the U.S. annually because of these injuries. A slip and fall accident refers to situations when someone slips, trips or falls as a result of a dangerous or hazardous condition on someone else's property. It can happen anywhere – the grocery store, mall, restaurant, or someone’s home; inside or outside. Wherever or however the slip and fall occurred, you may be legally entitled to compensation for the damages and costs associated with your injuries.

An experienced attorney can help slip and fall injury victims obtain financial compensation from the negligent parties. The attorney will work with accident reconstruction experts who can prove that your injuries were caused by the inadequate conditions on another party’s premise. 

The wheels of justice turn slowly, and it can often take more than a year for a slip and fall accident victim to receive money from a settlement or judgment.

Lawsuit Financial can provide a lawsuit cash advance to pay the bills until a settlement is reached.

Don’t Let the Settlement You Deserve Slip Through the Cracks Due to Finances

Dangerous conditions such as torn carpeting or damaged tiles, poor lighting, wet floors, cracked sidewalks, or hidden dangers can cause slip and fall accidents. A slip and fall accident can happen anywhere - mall, grocery store, restaurant, or even at someone’s home.  Wherever or however it takes place, victims may be legally entitled to compensation if the premises posed a hazard.  Often, owners of the premises where the accident takes place, deny responsibility and delay resolution of the claims. They are happy to drag their feet, and hope that the wait affects the victim’s financial stability to the point where they are willing to accept low settlement offer.  That is where Lawsuit Financial can provide litigation financial assistance.

While a personal injury lawsuit is pending, plaintiffs may have ongoing medical expenses and other outstanding bills. Lawsuit Financial can ease the financial burden and allow the slip and fall victim to stay the course and receive all of the compensation deserved.

When a plaintiff applies for lawsuit funding, the first step will be to obtain case documentation from the plaintiff’s attorney. Once this documentation is reviewed, if the case is determined to have merit, funding will be approved. Once a contract is signed by the plaintiff, attorney, and Lawsuit Financial, we can wire funds directly into the plaintiff’s bank account within 24 hours. There is no need for a credit check, employment verification, or monthly payments.  A significant benefit to lawsuit funding is that the cash advance is a no-risk source of financial assistance meaning that if the plaintiff loses the case, he/she is not obligated to repay the cash advance.  Yes, that is correct...if you don’t win, you don’t pay.

Lawsuit Funding for Slip and Fall/Premise Liability Claims

Lawsuit funding is available to plaintiffs involved in a personal injury lawsuit.  Often times referred to as a “lawsuit loan”, lawsuit funding is a means of paying necessary bills - mortgage, rent, car payments, groceries, utilities, medical bills, tuition, and all important obligations while enthralled in a lengthy litigation.

“Nobody told me that a lawsuit was a financial contest, and that in order to succeed, I needed the financial staying power to withstand a lengthy legal process.  I was unable to return to work, yet I had a mortgage and other bills to pay.  The defendant didn’t have this problem; they deny my claim for years and eventually offered 1/3 of what my case was worth.  As I was losing all hope, I heard about lawsuit funding.  I consulted my attorney who recommended Lawsuit Financial.  One simple call changed it all.  With a $2,500 lawsuit cash advance, the pressure was off and I was able to wait for the settlement I deserved.” ~ Matthew G

Slip and fall accidents are no exception.  Although these accidents are often times nothing more than a few bumps or bruises (maybe a little embarrassment), some can lead to serious injuries and permanent disability.  If the fall occurs on someone else's property and/or is the result of negligence, there may be grounds for a premises liability lawsuit.  However, the wheels of justice turn very slowly and the compensation sought could be months, even years away.  A seriously injured or disabled person, especially one unable to work as a result of the accident, is at a significant financial disadvantage especially against an insurance company that drags its feet in hopes of resolving the case for a low settlement. Lawsuits take time, and premises liability victims can be left without money to pay bills and support their families. Lawsuit Financial, a reputable name in legal funding industry, has many options designed to get plaintiffs the cash they need now, when they need it most. To qualify for funding, a plaintiff needs to have been involved in a premises liability personal injury case, hired an attorney, and filed a case in court.  The application process is quick and easy. There are no monthly payments and the cash advance is only paid back once the case settles.  If the plaintiff does not win in court, there is no repayment – no principal, no interest, nothing!

If you are faced with a similar situation, your best solution may be to seek litigation funding from an experienced and reputable legal funding company like Lawsuit Financial. Employment is not necessary and you do not need good credit.  We care only about the quality of your case and the potential compensation you may receive.  Apply now to get the cash you need to survive while you wait.
