INJURED IN ACCIDENT HELPING FRIEND WITH HOME PROJECT
Our personal injury lawyers have represented many people injured at someone’s home. Many times, it is a slip fall or trip fall case. However, some cases are more unusual. For example, we recently finished a case where our client was helping a friend with his garden. While stepping over the garden fence, a loose paver shifted, causing her to lose balance and fall. In that case, the injury was very serious. We have also had cases where a friend or neighbor was injured while helping with a remodeling or repair project.
Can you get compensation from the homeowner’s insurance? It is definately possible. However, it depends on the circumstances. You don’t get compensation just because you were injured on someone’s property. Rather, you are entitled to compensation only if the homeowner did something wrong that caused your injury. In other words, it depends on exactly what happened and how it happened.
