The word “accident” implies that there it has no real cause. If you have a car “accident”, no one is to blame. If you trip and break your leg, it’s no-one’s fault. This is far from the truth. Nearly all “accidents” are caused by human error. If you close your eyes when you cross the street, it’s your fault if you get hit by a car!
If a burger restaurant doesn’t bother cleaning up a greasy floor and a customer slips over (with their eyes open) it’s most likely the fault of the restaurant. State laws allow you to claim compensation if you are injured by someone else through their negligent actions.
A personal injury attorney knows only too well that many accidents are caused by human error and will help you if you choose to make a claim. You may be able to make a personal injury claim against Milo’s Hamburgers, or any other restaurant, if you need to recover medical and lost income expenses.
Possible Accidents at a Restaurant
It may seem unlikely that you could have a serious accident in a restaurant, but slip and fall accidents can happen in the most unlikely places. You can certainly be injured at a Milo’s Hamburgers restaurant, or any other restaurant. As has already been mentioned above accidents don’t happen without cause. If you trip and crack your head in a restaurant, it’s either your fault or someone else’s.
The most common cause of a slip and fall accident is the state of the floor surface. If there is debris all over it or if the floor is allowed to get wet and no sign is put out then this becomes a slip and fall hazard and sooner or later someone is going to get hurt. That’s the time when you may need to make a personal injury claim.
An injury at a restaurant is most likely to be relatively minor. Cuts and bruises are the most common injuries. Occasionally, more serious injuries can happen. Broken bones, especially hands, wrists and even broken arms are possible injuries. More serious are injuries to the spine and delicate nerves inside it as well as the face and brain.
These are injuries that might take a long time to deal with and could be extremely expensive. You should certainly consider making a personal injury claim if this is what has happened to you.
Filing a Personal Injury Claim
If you are injured in a Milo’s Hamburger restaurant, or any other restaurant, and are sure that it was not your fault but due to some negligent action by an employee or the restaurant management, you are entitled to make a claim for compensation. An experienced personal injury attorney will provide you with an opinion about your chances of making a claim based on the circumstances of the accident and will pursue the claim on your behalf if you decide to claim for damages.
