Help! I Slipped and Fell at Olive Garden*

If you have been injured as a result of slipping and falling while visiting a store should contact a personal injury attorney immediately. You may be entitled to receive compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, etc. A personal injury claim can help you pay for medical bills, lost wages, or compensate you for any pain and suffering that you’ve endured.

How an Accident can Happen

Some restaurants have carpeting in the dining and bar areas, and some do not. A carpeted area is obviously much safer for diners, because a hard surface is eliminated. With a tiled or other hard surface wine, soft drinks, other beverages, salad dressing, etc. could be on an uncarpeted floor and cause slips.

Solid food items may cause a risk of slip-and fall. In addition, the bathrooms, which are always tiled in some way, could have any number of substances, the most common of which is water. If the establishment has low light, it can prove more difficult for some diners to see these things on the floor beforehand.

Past Examples

She filed suit against Olive Garden and was awarded 1.8 million dollars.
