i have a lawyer but he emailed me the other day and said he would not be able to continue with my case at this time.i asked him why but no answer back

Hi Diana..This is a guess, but usually, lawyers drop cases when either no insurance coverage exists, no real injuries occur or where liability is lacking. The first two dont apply as you suffered a real injury and the House of Blues must have excellent insurance coverage, which leaves the third reason. My guess (and its only a guess) is that counsel felt that liability does not exist. In order for a propery owner to be liable for this type of fall, they have to be on notice of a dangerous condition on their premises that they should have forseen could cause this accident and also that they failed to take steps to remove that dangerous condition. What caused your fall? Was there lack of lighting? Were there no handrails on the stairs? Had you been drinking? Were you wearing high heels? More facts would be needed to determine the issue of liabilty. Contact to discuss.
