What if I was shopping at a store and got injured while trying out a product? I was shopping at store for kitchen tables. I found a nice table set with tall chairs like bar stools. When I went to sit on the chair, I fell 3 plus feet to the ground hurting my back. The store has taken liability and I have been contacted by (chartis) which is the insurance company. They told me to seek more doctor approval, but I have no insurance then they said they could do a claim for future medical expenses but they have been waiting on my medical bills for over 4 months. This happened in September. I'm still experiencing numbness in my right leg along with tingling back pains and headaches. These sometimes hinder my everyday tasks like my job.
