- Q. Hello, I cannot afford a lawyer, but I need one for a slip and fall case. Bayside, NY 11360

All of these cases are dependent upon medical proof, so if you haven’t seen a doctor for 8 months regarding your knee injury, this three year window won’t really help you. This is because that long delay in treatment will make it difficult to prove that your injuries are actually related to the fall.
