General
- What is the difference between a judgment and a settlement?
- I slipped at a department store about 4½ hours ago. I didn't fall, but I definitely pulled muscles. I don't know if I should wait until tomorrow to see if that is all it is or if I should seek medical attention tonight. Should I go to the emergency room or should I contact the department store and ask them if they have a physician I should go to?
- Can you sue for what might have happened?
