Answer 1

Dont be greedy...ooo, you fell. Deal with it dude. Dont sue someone of there money for your mistake.

Yeah, they could have had a sign or something..but your injury isnt major at all.

Answer 2

If you sustained a loss, as you did in your business, because of someone's negligence, you should consult an attorney to determine if the facts warrant filing a lawsuit to recover the loss you suffered.

Consulting an attorney does not mean filing a lawsuit.  It only means determining what you should expect given the situation.  A good attorney may advise that the loss is not significant or that the available evidence might not support your claim.  But consulting your attorney would give you advice upon which you could base your decision whether or not to file a lawsuit.
