Legal Question in Personal Injury in Illinois

Injury Claim

In Feb of 2004, I was riding a horse belonging to a children's home to evaluate the horse for us in our program. The instructor from the home was there was well. The horse jumped sideways and I came off and broke my leg (both bones in my lower right leg). I was hospitalized for 5 days. It was a bad break requiring 14 screws and two plates. I haven't been able to ride much since the accident and the horse business is my livelihood. The boots got caught in the stirrup which was why it was broken. I was wondering if I had a case against the manufacturer of these boots? Thank you for your time! Marj.
