Tort Claims

Governmental immunity can be waived through the Tort Claims. There are certain cases when government employees or agencies hold immunity from being filed a case against when negligence or accidents occur while they are doing their job for the country. This means that if you are in a government facility and you had an accident that causes injury, you cannot file a case against that facility. The same goes when a government employee had caused you injury not intentionally but accidentally while in line of duty is also immune from lawsuits.
Because of the Tort claim, though these individuals or government facilities are immune from being filed a case against, one can actually file a case against the country itself. With the help of tort claims lawyers at We are the Injury Lawyers can help you with this process. The process of filing for a tort claim can be daunting and if you don’t know what to do or how to proceed, you may most likely end up not filing at all. If you do that you would end up shouldering all the medical bills or expenses on the damages that have incurred.
There is a process in making such claim and it is important that you are backed by a reputable lawyer who has a lot of experience to assist you on this. It is important that before filing for a claim against the country, you and your lawyer would first file for a claim administratively for the entire amount of medical bills, or for the damages it had caused whether physically or to your property or vehicle. You need to be able to do this within the 2 years from the time that the injury or damage happened.  Otherwise it will be forfeited and you cannot go for the claim against the country as the next step.

Your tort claims lawyer will make sure that you get to process your claim on time and will update you regularly of what is happening to your case. The departments where the personnel or facility belongs to in the government would then be reviewing your claim and will proceed to the next step and will decide how to pay for the damages. With the tort claims lawyer, they will help you to get the most that you can for your case so you won’t end up spending for the damages that you did not cause but you are rather just the victim of. If you believe you can file for a tort claims for an incident that happened within 2 years, go and get a free consultation from our lawyers as soon as possible.

Slip and Fall

One of the most difficult to prove liability for filing a claim is the slip and fall accidents. Every year thousands of people get injured in this manner and some have serious injuries from falling from slippery surfaces. Elderly individuals who fall can suffer tremendously and can even lead to their deaths. So, the question really lies as to who should be held accountable when somebody slips and falls. You have to investigate the situation closely before filing a claim and we at the We are the Injury Lawyers will help you from step 1.
Occupier’s liability clearly states that if a visitor or even trespasser get into an accident in their property due to negligence from their part they will be held liable for that. But before you can point your finger at the occupant of the property, it needs to be investigated if they are indeed guilty of neglect in making sure their property is safe enough to avoid accidents like that. It may tempt you to file a lawsuit against them straight away, especially if the accident caused great deal of pain or a loss of life, but this shouldn’t be done out of haste. It must first be known if their property is indeed hazardous. The question “If they were more careful with their property, would the slip and fall incident haven’t took place?” if your answer is no then you cannot file a claim against them. But if your answer is yes and you have enough evidence to prove it then you can file an Occupier’s liability claim against them.
If one simply slip and fall due to his/her own error of judgment then a claim cannot be filed. But, you can only seek help from your health care insurance as it is your own fault that led to the accident. A property owner is only responsible in maintaining their property to be safe. You need to prove that your injury is caused by the property’s dangerous condition in order to win the case.  If the dangerous condition was untreated because they choose not to treat it then they are to be held liable. If they caused the condition to be dangerous then all the more that they’d be held accountable.

Occupier’s Liability

What is an Occupier’s Liability Law?
In simple words, it is the law that states that occupiers of a property whether they are permanent owners of the property or just renting the property, they have liability in case a visitor or even a trespasser of the said property will end up with an accident caused by the defects or lack of care for the said property. This law clearly indicates the difference between a trespasser and that of a visitor.
So, when you go to other people’s property, the owner or the renter of that property has the responsibility to make sure the surrounding is safe so you won’t end up having accidents caused by negligence. If one suffered an accident in another’s property and it has been proven that the accident is because the occupier did not ensure the safety of his/her surroundings, the one who suffered the accident can be entitled for some legal compensation. If you are in need of a personal injury lawyer to help you get your legal compensation then we at We are the Injury Lawyers would be happy to be of service to you.
We offer free consultation so we can discuss whether or not you are really entitled for such compensation depending on the circumstance of the accident that took place.
Here are some possible reasons of accidents that are caused by negligence from the side of the property’s occupier: You fall off because it was snowy and the ice hasn’t been cleared. You slip because of a slippery surface that should have been cleaned up to avoid such accidents. You couldn’t see properly because the area is not well-lit. Conditions of the property can also be cause for danger such as items or appliance falling on you or there are unsealed wires around and you got electrocuted.

The personal injury lawyer would have to know where the accident took place and if that property is a private or public property. Other information would also be essential in order for you to be able to fight for your claim from the injury you suffered from. Injuries from accidents should be checked and compensation need to be paid whether by the person involved or by their insurance company where they are policyholders. This is a complex process and if you want to push to receive your right for a claim then we can help you get that in a legal manner.
