Why Work with Shaw Law?
- Direct Access: Work directly with JJ Shaw or Sky Shaw, not just a case manager.
- Modern Communication: We stay in touch via text, email, Skype, or social media—whatever works best for you.
- Proven Track Record: Member of the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum and rated 10.0 on Avvo. We have recovered millions for families throughout Indiana.
When you are looking for an injury attorney in Elkhart, it helps to have a team that understands how local judges, juries, and insurance companies tend to approach cases at the Elkhart County Courthouse and in nearby venues like St. Joseph County. We take the time to gather medical records, investigate the scene, and work with your healthcare providers at facilities such as Elkhart General Hospital so that your claim reflects the full extent of your losses.
Indiana’s Choice for Slip and Fall Representation
Most slip and fall cases are lost at trial by victims who don't have legal representation focused on this type of claim. We are "slipandfall.com" for a reason—we focus on premises liability law and have settled hundreds of cases for millions of dollars.
- Timely Action: Slip and fall cases depend on preserving evidence quickly. We can issue preservation letters for your Elkhart or South Bend claim within 24 hours of your first call.
- Direct Experience: We have performed jury trials in Elkhart, St. Joseph, and LaPorte Counties. We know the local courts and how to present cases against big-box stores, restaurants, and strip malls.
- No Fee Unless You Win: You pay nothing upfront. We only collect a fee if we successfully recover compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
People are often unsure whether a slip and fall incident at a store on Cassopolis Street or a parking lot near the South Main Street corridor even qualifies for a claim, and an experienced injury lawyer can explain how Indiana premises liability law applies to your situation. We can review incident reports, surveillance footage, and witness statements to determine whether the property owner failed to correct a dangerous condition or warn you about it in time.
