One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesFerndale's small-town charm — its historic storefronts along Main Street, the shops near Bluff Street, the walkways off Fairview Drive — comes with uneven boardwalks, aging pavement, and older building entrances that don't always meet modern safety standards. A fall in one of these spots can happen fast: a wet floor with no sign, a broken step, poor lighting in a parking area. Under California law, the property owner or business generally has to have known (or reasonably should have known) about the hazard before they're held responsible for not fixing or warning about it. That's why what happens in the minutes and days after a fall matters so much — photos of the hazard, witness names, and any surveillance footage from the business can make or break a claim. LawProactive doesn't charge you anything to get matched with an independent attorney familiar with these cases. The attorney works on contingency, meaning there's no fee unless you recover something.
California requires showing the property owner knew or should have known about the hazard and didn't fix or warn about it. An attorney knows how to dig up maintenance logs, past complaints, or inspection records that establish that notice.
Many businesses overwrite security footage within days or weeks. Getting a preservation letter out quickly can be the difference between having proof and having nothing.

*No attorney's fee unless there is a recovery. The client may be responsible for court costs and case expenses.
California uses pure comparative fault, so even if you're found partly responsible for the fall, you can still recover a reduced amount. An attorney can help make sure your share of blame isn't overstated.
