When filing a claim against the property owner, their insurance company will likely try to devalue your claim by shifting blame for the accident on you. If they’re successful, it can prevent you from recovering the compensation you deserve. An attorney can help you protect your rights, gather the necessary evidence to prove the owner’s failure to use reasonable care, and negotiate a settlement to fully cover your losses.
