Department store slip and fall

The Law Offices of Mickey Fine: A powerful legal resource for injury victims

Every day, thousands of people go shopping at department stores. When people enter department stores, they expect that managers and workers have made sure the aisles and other areas are clear of any hazards. Large stores contain lots of merchandise that could fall to the floor, which a customer might trip and fall over. A slip and fall may contribute to injuries such as broken bones or even brain injuries. Another typical hazard involves a spill on a fall. An employee might fail to put up a sign warning people about the hazard, which could contribute to a possible injury.If you or a loved one was injured at a department store, contact an experienced California personal injury lawyer. You may be entitled to compensation for losses, including medical bills, loss of wages, pain and suffering and other damages. Call (800) 576-3818 for a free consultation.

Potential slip and fall hazards at a department store

The following are examples of potentially hazardous conditions that may lead to injuries at a department store:

  • Heavy items falling off a shelf and either striking a customer or otherwise creating a potential "trip and fall" hazard
  • Malfunctioning escalator
  • A liquid spill on the floor that has been reported several times and no one has done anything to clean it up
  • An employee mops a floor, but fails to put up a caution sign

Some people injured at department stores may get a quick settlement offer from an insurance company. While it's tempting to accept the offer, the injury victim may be making a costly mistake. Many people don't realize the potential future costs, including medical treatment and lost income. It's wise to talk with a California slip and fall attorney to learn more about your rights.
