Paradis Premise Liability Attorney - Premise Liability Paradis LA

❓ Do I need to retain an attorney?
Yes. Rail cases involve complex federal/state rules, multiple parties, short notice deadlines (especially for public entities), and technical evidence (event-recorder data, signal logs, video) that must be preserved immediately.
❓ I heard that even if I work for the railroad, I can sue my own company. Is this true?
Yes. Under the Federal Employers' Liability Act (FELA), injured railroad employees may sue their employer for negligence, obtain a jury trial, and recover full tort damages if the railroad's negligence played any part in causing the injury.
❓ Is it important to retain a lawyer who is willing to perform a thorough investigation and hire experts in railroad collision and/or light rail transit collision cases?
Absolutely. Effective cases often require experts in train operations, human factors, signal engineering, accident reconstruction, and biomechanics, plus rapid preservation of black-box/event-recorder data, PTC data, cab video, and maintenance records.

❓ How Much Time Does A Person Have In Order To File A Slip And Fall Claim?
Deadlines vary by state and are shorter if a government entity is involved. Speak with counsel promptly to avoid missing the statute or notice requirements.
❓ Do the rules change depending on where I fell?
Yes. Standards differ for private homes, commercial premises, landlords, and public entities, and special notice rules may apply to government property.
❓ Do Stores Get Rid Of Evidence Of Slip And Fall Incidents?
Security videos often auto-overwrite within days. Send a prompt spoliation/preservation letter and request footage, sweep logs, and maintenance records right away.

❓ Why You Should Appoint a Digital Executor as Part of Your Estate Plan
A digital executor (or fiduciary) can manage online accounts, photos, crypto, domains, and social media per your instructions and state law (often RUFADAA). Provide an inventory and access plan; use a password manager and keep instructions outside the will.
❓ What to Do I Do If I Suspect Financial Abuse of an Elderly Person?
Document suspicious transactions, speak privately with the elder, and report to Adult Protective Services and/or law enforcement. Ask the bank to flag accounts, consult an elder-law attorney about conservatorship/guardianship, and consider restraining orders or civil claims.
❓ Estate Planning Documents
Core documents include a will, revocable living trust (if used), durable financial power of attorney, health care proxy/medical power, HIPAA release, living will/advance directive, and disposition-of-remains instructions.
