A: I'm sorry about your fall and ensuing injuries. You could reach out to Indiana attorneys to discuss. Most law firms that handle such cases offer free initial consults. An attorney would want to evaluate the accident in detail to make a determination about your potential rights here. I hope you're okay. Good luck
