Slips, trips, falls and other accidents may be an unavoidable fact of life, but when these injuries become lawsuits, a business is at risk for large judgments and soaring insurance rates. Companies facing recurring claims of negligence often pursue early resolutions to minimize trial expenses, but must also weight the risk that settlements can increase frivolous or opportunistic claims going forward.
