Injured From a Slip and Fall at Randalls*

A trip to a grocery store like Randalls could lead to a hospital visit if you’re injured in a slip and fall. Unfortunately, these types of accidents sometimes occur because management or ownership at a retail store is negligent.

Have you been injured from a slip and fall at Randalls or any other store? Do you believe your accident occurred because ownership didn’t mitigate hazards properly?

You may be eligible for compensation if so. By filing a personal injury claim with the store’s insurance, you could seek compensation for medical bills and related losses resulting from the incident.

Possible Injuries From a Slip and Fall at a Grocery Store

Being injured at Randalls due to a slip and fall accident can involve various forms of harm. Common injuries sustained in slip and fall at a grocery store include:

  • Cuts
  • Bruises
  • Concussion
  • Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
  • Fractures

Various factors will affect the specific injuries someone might sustain in a slip and fall. For example, if you tried to break your fall with your arms or hands, you may have sustained wrist injuries.

Steps to Take After a Slip and Fall At a Grocery Store

Taking the right steps immediately after being injured at Randalls or any other grocery store can improve your chances of receiving the compensation you might deserve. Steps to take include:

  • Finding a manager or employee
  • Asking to submit an official accident report
  • Not saying anything to suggest that the slip and fall may have been your fault
  • Not signing any liability forms or similar forms until you’ve had a chance to review them with a personal injury lawyer
  • Seeing a doctor as soon as possible

The last step is imperative. Even if you think your injuries are minor, seeing a doctor is key to establishing a link between your injuries and the slip and fall. In addition, it’s possible to sustain injuries without experiencing symptoms right away.

Evidence to Collect

Collecting evidence after a slip and fall can strengthen your claim. Ways to collect evidence after the incident include:

  • Taking pictures of the scene, with the goal of documenting hazardous conditions that may have caused or contributed to the incident
  • Identifying witnesses who saw the slip and fall and getting their contact information
  • Saving documentation of all medical bills

Depending on the nature of your injuries, your medical treatment may be ongoing. Save documentation of all treatment and expenses accordingly.

File a Personal Injury Claim

By gathering evidence, you can submit a personal injury claim showing an insurance company how a slip and fall resulted from the unreasonable negligence of ownership at Randalls or any other grocery store where you were injured.

Just be aware that the insurance company’s goal may not be to compensate you fairly in these circumstances.
