Am I liable personally for costs accrued from an ambulance ride and medical care that shouldve been covered by workers comp?

The short answer is you should pay for the bills now, and try to repair your credit, and pursue your old employer later. If you don't care about your credit, then try to pursue Circuit City now.

Do attorneys' take slander/libel cases on contingency basis against a business such as a Bingo Hall. I have documented proof of

Some attorneys may take this case on contingency, depending on the size of the damages and the strength of the case. Contingency fees mean that an attorney does not charge clients anything unless and until there is a recovery for the client. In this way, attorneys share the risk with the client that there may be no recovery on the case.

I told her I could not take the case because it was too small, but suggested she write a letter to the raisin company and if that went no where, she should...

I am a California lawyer with offices in Los Angeles and Orange County. Your friend may have a valid claim against the mall if the mall is legally responsible for her fall. Why did she fall? How did she fall? If you were on a jury, and a person like your friend was asking for money from the mall, would you award money?
