Marshalls Slip and Fall Lawyer


Discount clothing stores like Marshalls are the perfect place to find the latest fashions. When you go shopping you get excited about returning home with all your new items. However, there are several hazardous conditions in clothing stores that can cause severe accidents. If you or someone you know suffered a trip and fall accident you should seek help from an experienced personal injury attorney.

Is Marshall’s Responsible For Accidents On Their Property?

A public store has a duty to provide a reasonably safe environment for shoppers. While Marshall’s prides itself on making their stores hazard-free, customers are injured frequently. When accidents are caused by unsafe conditions a shopper can file a personal injury claim.

Slip and fall cases are the top reported shopping accident. Senior customers are especially vulnerable to serious injuries such as fractured bones and concussions.

Some of the top causes of store injuries inside Marshall’s include:

  • Falling objects
  • Wet floors due to spilled liquids
  • Inadequate lighting in parking lots
  • Obstructions in the aisles
  • Defective escalators, elevators, and staircases

What many people don’t know is that retail stores like Marshalls can be held responsible for injuries a shopper may sustain during a security guard abuse or sexual abuse incident that takes place on their premises.

If you or a family member has been injured in Marshall’s it’s important to know that you are entitled to compensation that covers medical expenses, lost wages, physical and mental distress.

What Should You Do If You Get Injured In Marshall?

What you do following an injury can very well determine how well your personal injury case turns out. Here are three steps you should take immediately following your accident:

Report The Accident

No doubt slipping and falling in a public store can be embarrassing. However, you should stay in the store and ask for the manager. If you leave before filing an official injury report you can compromise your case.

Get Medical Treatment

Never refuse medical treatment even if you feel that you aren’t hurt. Your adrenaline is running and you might have sustained an injury and just didn’t realize it. Seek medical attention as soon as possible even if you have to visit your private physician. If you decide to see a private doctor make sure you let your doctor know that you were hurt.

Proving A Marshall’s Slip and Fall Accident

When you file a personal injury claim against a large retail corporation like Marshall you’ll have to prove that the owner was indeed negligent. While the retailer has a legal duty of care the injured shopper will need to provide proof that their injuries were caused by the store which often includes:

  • A hazardous condition is what caused you to hurt yourself
  • The owner knew about the dangerous condition or should have known about it.
  • The owner failed to take care of the dangerous condition or eliminate the hazard.
  • You didn’t do anything to contribute to the accident.

Gathering Trip and Fall Evidence

The key to a successful trip and fall accident case is to gather supporting evidence to show that the injuries you endured were a result of the slip and fall accident. You will need to provide documentation that shows that the store owner is liable for both economic and no economic damages. Some great examples of evidence included:

  • Video footage
  • Pictures of the accident scene (damaged sidewalk, wet floor, or loose tiles)
  • Medical bills (prescription, surgery, doctor visits, and hospitalizations)
  • Proof of missed days of work and lost wages
  • Eyewitness statements
  • Photos of visible bruises

When you file a personal injury claim you can sue for damages such as:

– Pain and suffering
– Long-term disabilities
– Property damages
– Future loss wages
– Permanent disability
