Our initial consultation costs you nothing.<\/p>\n When you hire an experienced lawyer to represent you, they will consult with you on all your legal options. Your chances of legal success are much greater with a knowledgeable lawyer on your side. Insurance companies legally represent the businesses and institutions where slip and fall accidents occur. They can be ruthless. They can be deceptive. Not only is their primary motivation to avoid paying you the money you deserve, but they essentially want to avoid paying out anything at all.<\/p>\n Personal injury lawyers are experienced professionals. They are prepared to fight against aggressive insurance agents. Insurance companies are aware that they cannot pull the same tricks on clients who have legal representation that they can on those who don\u2019t. If someone slips, trips, or falls because a person or business did not maintain their premises or follow laws of proper upkeep, then justice must be served.<\/p>\n If you choose to hire a personal injury lawyer, it is crucial that you do so quickly. We urge you not to sign an agreement with an insurance company prior to meeting with a lawyer. Chances are, such an agreement will be a better deal for the insurance company than it will be for you. Additionally, time is of the essence. There is a two-year statute of limitations in Toronto, which means that after that time is up, with few exceptions, a case cannot be filed. You will likely lose any potential for recovering damages (money for your injuries).<\/p>\n How Can a Slip and Fall Injury Lawyer Help Me?<\/a><\/p>\n Mazin & Associates, PC only has lawyers with guts and legal know-how.
