@Reda Akbil as has been mentioned, you must get an Attorney on board ASAP.  

However, I wouldn't be overly concerned.  I've had a slip and fall claim on (2) of my commercial properties in the past and in both instances the claimant's were unable to prove they actually slipped on our property. One of them we had on video that proved she did not slip, but the other was just her word without any witness' and in the end without a witness to corroborate the story the Judge dismissed the claim.  Still cost us a few thousand in defense fees but that was much less than the alternative.  I was of the opinion in both cases that they were just fishing for a settlement and chose to fight the claim rather than entertain any type of settlement and I'm glad I did.

Best of Luck!
