Slip and Fall Injury

I slipped on an oily substance at Sears and injured my right wrist (I am right handed). An incident report was made and an absorbant material was placed on the area of the floor where the fall occured. I experienced pain when using my hand, but thought it would resolve with Motrin. After several weeks with no improvement, I went to a specialist who diagnosed ligament injury (possibly tears) and trigger finger ligament injury. I was given a cortisone injection in my hand and a splint to be worn for 4-6 weeks. Now, Sears says it will not cover my medical bills, because there was a gap in treatment. They were aware that I was trying to improve the condition with anti-inflamatories prior to seeing a doctor, and made no mention of gap in treatment. Do I have a case for reimbursement?

  1. If I were you I would contact a personal injury attorney who handles slip and fall cases. The information you’ve provided makes me believe an attorney would certainly take a look at this case.
