Legal Question in Personal Injury in Ohio

Re: fall

You may be able to collect medpay from commercial liability insurance of the store where you fell or the business in control of the parking lot. Without more facts, I cannot tell you whether you have any other avenue of recovery. Generally, it is hard to recover from anyone for a slip and fall these days. The Ohio Supreme Court recently held that if a danger is open and obvious, the person must protect himself/herself against it and the landowner has no duty to protect people from open and obvious dangers.
