Can I Sue?

Can I file a slip and fall accident lawsuit against the store owner? Do I have the right to sue if I was injured on the store premises? Regardless of the specific type of incident that you or a member of your family experienced on the premises of a Auto Parts location, you might have grounds to sue. Your right to sue for a slip and fall, trip and fall, falling object incident, or any other incident is based on the concept of premise liability.

Based on premise liability, all property owners owe their guests a duty of care. They have the duty to keep their premises safe for their guests (or their customers). To ensure that their premises are safe, they must inspect the property thoroughly to be able to identify and address any hazards before an incident occurs. If property owners fail to take any action to identify and address the hazards present, they are breaching their duty of care; they are also putting their innocent guests at risk of suffering harm. If an incident occurs and a guest is harmed, the property owner could be held accountable.

What does this mean? If you or a member of your family suffered harm in an incident at a Auto Parts location, you could pursue an injury claim. If you would like to learn more about your right to file an injury lawsuit against Auto Parts, do not hesitate to contact the experts at our firm immediately.
