my mother slipped and almost fell in August one of the the floors in our building ...no signs and the floors were lightly soapy wet..took it to an attorney and they said they have sent it to the medical insurance companies to see if they'll pay...what does that mean? please if you have no idea don't bother any lawyers tort law law school majors welcome to reply how long does the process take for them to find out from the medical company becuase we filed it in September and its about to be January in a couple of weeks
