I broke my leg over an icy unclean pavement. What are my rights?
The construction, repair and maintenance of the sidewalks is the responsibility of the municipality. Consequently, the municipality is responsible. If I break my leg because of an icy unclean pavement, she owes me compensation.
I can seek redress in court, again in the district court. I also have a deadline to claim - 5 years from the incident.
After the fall, it's good to visit a doctor to review me. He will give me an ambulatory sheet that will serve as evidence in court. If necessary, to stay in the hospital for treatment and surveillance, the hospital sheet will also have a burden of proof. In addition, a forensic medical expertise may be appointed in the course of the case. It will be done by a doctor. Its purpose is to find out if my leg is broken, what are the consequences of this (eg, whether it is incapacity for work, how much pain I feel, etc.), whether it is necessary to apply another treatment, etc.
