Proving Liability Can Be Challenging
There may be certain exceptions to the defendant’s responsibility to maintain a safe property and prevent a fall. For instance, if you slipped on a puddle of water outside a store in heavy rain, the insurance company may say that you were also partially negligent by your failure to look out for the puddle of water in such wet weather. That doesn’t mean that you don’t have grounds for a claim, though. Determining liability in these cases is challenging, and you need legal guidance to identify all liable parties.

"He never failed to answer my questions, and always gave me valuable advice"
I found Effres & Associate by chance. Not knowing what to do after my accident, I surfed on the web and came across this company. After reviewing the testimonials, I decided to call them. For some reason, I did not want to call those big law firms that have big billboards everywhere. I went to talk to Justin on the next day, and found him to be a truly concerned young attorney. He is not a pushy lawyer, but always friendly and professional. He never failed to answer my questions, and always gave me valuable advice. After almost two years dealing with the case, Justin brought a successful ending to the case. Thanks, Justin.- S. I. -
"I want to thank you and say, God Bless you. If I ever need a lawyer again I won’t forget you."
Dear Mr. Effres, It was very kind of you to want to help me with getting settled with social security. I did not send any papers, as I thought I should wait until the first of the month. I have received my check at last. It came on the 3rd of August. I must tell you it made me very happy to know you wanted to help me. I did appreciate that so much, and I want to thank you and say, God Bless you. Sincerely, M. K. P.S If I ever need a lawyer again I won’t forget you. by M. K.- M.K. -

"We will recommend you and your firm without reservation."
Dear Steve, With our case now settled, we wanted to reach out to thank you, Justin and the entire team for your representation of our daughter. It was clear to us that your professionalism, expertise and advocacy of our family’s interests made the entire process run smoothly. We specifically appreciate how well you interacted with our daughter. After we hung up with you on speaker phone leaving the courthouse that last day she said “I like him” in a very childlike, affectionate tone. We also wanted you to know that our decision to settle did not come easily. In the end, we believe the decision was in our daughter’s best interest. We know you worked hard to prepare a strong case and do regret not having the opportunity to see that through. Lastly, on a personal note, we wanted to compliment you on Justin. He is a truly impressive young man; intelligent, polite and very good natured. Just a couple of comments Steve made in the days leading up to our daughter’s trial as we got to know Justin better. To our daughter; “You can tell a lot about a man by seeing how his children behave; Mr. Effres seems like a really good man.” To S: “If you have a son, he (Justin) is what you want him to be like; if you have a daughter, he’s the kind of guy you’d like her to end up with.” Anyway, I’m sure you don’t need to hear it from us, but you and your wife must be very proud of your sons. I hope this doesn’t sound hollow, because it is most definitely not, but please keep in touch and let us know if there is ever anything we can do for you. If we ever come across a friend who is in need of representation, we will recommend you and your firm without reservation. Thanks again and best wishes by S, S, and M- S, S & M
