Here are three thoughts from a personal injury lawyer in Louisville, Kentucky, during Derby week:
- If you’re in a ride share crash, make sure you call the police and do not speak to the insurance companies without consulting with a lawyer.
- Dram shop cases involve a bar or restaurant over-serving a person that they know is impaired or intoxicated. They’re responsible for making sure they have the right policies and protocols in place to prevent people from being over-served and then going out and hurting somebody.
- There are going to be women wearing shoes that are probably difficult to walk in. If you’re involved in a slip and fall, you need to take a picture of your shoes and consult with a lawyer to see if maybe there’s some comparative negligence in wearing some crazy shoes. However, that doesn’t mean that the place can let it fall to junk. They need to keep track of where these people are going, and there’s an argument to be made that the facility needs to know that women are wearing shoes that are difficult to walk in, so maybe they need to make it even a little bit safer.
