So I fell down really hard on my knee 4 weeks ago. Bruised up, could not walk at all for over a week completely bed ridden, reached out to personal injury and the case manager would not transfer me to an attorney because I said i did not see any defect with the step that I tripped on. I don't have a photo as I never drove back there. I tripped right outside the gas station the cashier did not warn me of a step and I fell really hard. Luckily I am not elderly but I landed directly on my left knee wearing high heels. I don't have health insurance so I just stayed home to heal myself. I am better now but I still can't put weight on my knee, cannot kneel without pain and cannot run like I used to. Because I don have insurance or money (i had lost my job) can I still pursue this? I can't run anymore its been a month now. I believe i have hairline fracture but did not get an x-ray because i have no money

Perhaps you can get some photos now and contact a local lawyer. A few weeks isn’t too late

Good question. We didn’t receive the check yet. It just settled. But it will be about $420k to client. Legal fees are 1/3rd. Expenses here were minimal bc case was just getting started.

@@michaelmcw111 in New York medical liens are only required if the client doesn’t have any health insurance. If it’s an auto case we have $50k of PIP No fault Benefits insurance coverage. So we always try to use all available insurance to the maximum extent possible. Thank you so much for watching. Let us know what future videos you want to see !

Haha. Yes some people immediately tend to blame the person who falls which is why a good lawyer needs to spend time selecting the right jury :)

Hi so I had someone close to me call you and after asking her to send pictures and taking her information surprisingly noone has called her back ? Im really amazed because After watching you for so long I would of thought your practice would at the least have the professionalism to at least call her after having her send information and tell her something even if your office didn't see any help in the future.. Her name is sarah Cabrera
