ATTACKED INJURED AT NIGHT CLUB MN LAWYERS
Our lawyers represent people who were attacked and injured at a night club or bar in Minnesota. Most often, our client was attacked by another customer of the nightclub or bar.
When a person is attacked by another customer at a nightclub they want to know if they can sue the person who attacked them. The next question is whether there can be a claim against the bar.
Our attorneys take nightclub attack injury cases throughout Minnesota and pursue compensation for our clients. However, certain facts are required for a successful claim. There are two challenges with a night club or bar attack injury case: 1) It is difficult to actually collect compensation against the customer who attacked you at the bar. Insurance does not cover them for intentionally injuring someone. 2) It is challenging to successfully sue the nightclub or bar. The bar is not responsible just because you were injured on their property. You are trying to hold the nightclub responsible for something someone else did. In other words, one customer attacked another. The bar did not actually attack anyone. However, sometimes this can be overcome.
When you call our office, a lawyer will discuss the details of your situation. We will determine if there is a claim we can successfully pursue for you. We will get your medical bills paid, and other compensation for being attacked at the bar or nightclub. For example, we will explore if the other customer did not actually intend to hurt you. If the injury was an accident, there could be a homeowners insurance claim against the other customer’s policy.
TWO WAYS TO HOLD THE BAR RESPONSIBLE FOR CUSTOMER ATTACK
Our attorneys will look for facts to prove that the nightclub illegally overserved the customer. Also, they may have known the other customer was dangerous and likely to fight or attack someone. In those cases it is often possible for our lawyers to successfully bring a claim against the nightclub or bar and their insurance for compensation.
If the customer of the nightclub was drunk, the bar should have stopped serving them. MN law holds the nightclub responsible for injuries caused people they overserved. Likewise, if the customer is known to fight or be violent, the nightclub has a duty to keep the violent customer out of the nightclub for the protection of other customers.
Whether or not you have a case after being attacked or injured at a nightclub or bar depends on the facts of your case. What the witnesses say is important. We also look for video that might be available, and other possible evidence. If you were injured by being attacked at a bar or nightclub, call us and speak with a MN personal injury lawyer. The initial consultation is free. Further, we never charge anything unless you receive compensation.
