SD lawyers- question here

Long story short.

Bachelorette party last year. Girls drinking.
Girl was not drinking too much to get hammered.
Girl likely had drink spiked by guys.
Girl starts dancing on music stage for bands with other girls allowed by bar.
Girl passes out and face plants off the stage busting nose and teeth.
Girl goes to hospital - bar apologizes and promises to never let anyone dance on the stage again.
Girls insurance only covers so much of cosmetic repairs so girl decides to sue bar to cover the rest of the medical bills.

Case or no case?

Bars lawyers are trying to make a personal attack on girls character saying shes a crazy drunk and it will likely go to trial without a settlement.

I still think without blood work to show BAC or any drugs in her system she's SOL.

Quote from athensr :
. The court would also consider causation and the statute of limitations (how long since the accident), the awareness of the staff of the dangerous condition, how high the stage was (obviously 6 inches would be diffwrent than 6 feet), the last clear chance doctrine, trespass, libel and slander issues (saying an idiot is an idiot/whore/etc will cause problems), etc . With regard to your question, I highly suggest they hire a competent attorney. Also, I am not an attorney for anyone here and THIS IS IN NO WAY to be construed, in any manner or relationship, legal advice in any form. Anyone reading this shall not rely on anything I said and no attorney client relationship nor any privleges of confidentality shall arise from this statement.
Good luck. Also, typed on my iphone so apathetic on rereading to correct spelling probs, i am not gonna bother rereading this
so you agree to be my lawyer and we have privlage now... great so if i have herps, do i need to tell the people i bang before i pentrate them or do i need to get them to sign a waiver after the fact?

Sadly that is true. Summation--> anyone who gives op a definitive answer is not a lawyer (not enough facts and no location --> illegal to give advice outside of licensed jurisdiction--> don't listen to anyone in this thread, as it is incompetent advice from a non-lawyer

I have depended on the lounge for all of my legal advice for years. The lounge has never steered me wrong and saved me tons of money. bouncebouncebounce

I'm sorry if it was written wrong, I forced myself to wake up early today to take care of things.
