The question asked is whether an elderly man who fell in a third party business location and can he recover medical expenses. The law is not a coin toss, or a dart board or a game. There is significant science and math involved as well as legal issues regarding detailed facts that will impact the possible recovery of damages. Speak with a contingent fee attorney, see what coverage is available and do not let the statute of limitations run out before the claim is pursued.
