Reckless vs. Negligent
When experiencing an accident and suffering an injury your legal team will need to look at whether the accident was caused by negligence or reckless behavior. There are some distinct differences in these two wrongful behaviors and one will bring with it increased compensation.
Retaining legal counsel after a vehicle accident in Connecticut
When an accident is caused by a reckless, drunk or distracted driver, you may be able to collect double, treble or punitive damages. If you are injured by an uninsured/underinsured driver or if you do not have health insurance, you will still be able to pursue a claim under applicable law in Connecticut.

Shopping Season Is Near
Many of us are excited for the upcoming holiday season, some more than others are ready to hit the ground running, full speed, for Black Friday.
The weekend after Thanksgiving is known as the busiest shopping days of the year. Some stores offer insanely priced loss leaders to get shoppers in the doors, but this can this be dangerous.
Sometimes overzealous shoppers doing their best to land a limited offer deal can get them and others injured in the process.
In 2008 a Walmart located in Long Island had crowds that caused a cave in of their front doors and sadly a security guard lost his life in the ensuing “stampede” of shoppers. Walmart was taken to court and settled for $2 million and an additional $7000 fine.
The Bottom Line
When a store invites you into their establishment they have an obligation to ensure your safety while on the premises, under what is called business invitee CT law. If you happen to be involved in an accident:
- Report accident/injury immediately to store staff
- Take pictures of the area that caused your injury;
- Get the names and contact information of witnesses;
- Seek proper medical attention for your injuries;
Only an experienced personal injury lawyer will be able to review your case and evaluate whether you may be entitled to compensation for an injury. If you were injured at a store (or another location), contact Tindall Law Firm. We have a nearly 24 year track record of great success and experience handling these premises liability cases. For a free consultation with a Waterbury personal injury attorney, please call 203.755.0018 or contact us online. All cases are taken on a contingency fee basis. If we accept your case, you pay no fee unless we recover damages for you.
