Over 200 of the 2700 Jimmy John’s locations nationwide are in Texas. With 40 years in business, this sandwich shop chain has discovered that using fresh quality meats and baking fresh bread makes a sandwich that stands out above all the competition. And it is far healthier than most other fast food choices that are fried and add a massive amount of grease and waste calories to your meal.
As you are traveling through Texas or when you are running around your hometown, there is sure to be a Jimmy John’s location nearby, as they are in all of the following cities:
But it is essential to understand that nothing is perfect. There is always good and bad to be evaluated when making choices, and the downside to visiting a Jimmy John’s location is the many accident injuries suffered by patrons of this restaurant. Unfortunately, many safety hazards and concerns are overlooked by the Jimmy John’s staff until an unsuspecting customer suffers a slip and fall injury, trip and fall incident, or is hurt by a falling object. So customers are urged to remain aware of their surroundings and be careful when placing their orders or waiting for their food, as well as when making their way to a table or the restrooms in these locations.

Unfortunately, the common theme of most customer injuries in Jimmy John’s locations is the store staff’s lack of attention and action. The safety concerns are not anything out of the ordinary. But they become very serious when not promptly addressed or corrected by the store staff. These common accident injury hazards include:
All these issues are easy for the store staff to correct or make as possible safety hazards to alert customers to use added care. However, when the team ignores the issues or decides not to take the appropriate action, the result is all too often a customer suffering a Jimmy John’s accident injury and the possibility of a Jimmy John’s accident injury lawsuit.
Just because an injury occurs at a Jimmy John’s location does not mean the store is liable for the incident. Instead, it must be determined that the store staff were negligent in their duties and that negligence contributed to the accident. When you meet with a Lone Star Injury Law Firm lawyer to discuss the details of your claim, they will evaluate the incident and the possibility of Jimmy John’s staff negligence to decide if you have reason to pursue a lawsuit.
Duty of care will play a significant role in your ability to sue for the injuries you suffered at Jimmy John’s. It is a legal term that defines the legal obligation of property and business owners to provide a safe environment for their customers and guests. The required level of care is said to be equal to that offered by the average prudent person.
For example, if water is spilled on the floor, the average person would quickly mop it up to prevent anyone from slipping and falling. Likewise, they would remove litter from the floor to avoid an injury accident. When applying duty of care to these situations, the staff at Jimmy John’s should act in the same manner as you or the average person would to ensure the safety of others. If they fail to act in this appropriate manner, they could be negligent in their duty of care, and there is a possibility that Jimmy John’s could face a lawsuit.
When you meet with a Jimmy John’s accident injury lawyer from Lone Star Injury Law Firm, you will learn much more about the potential value of your lawsuit. Because there are no pre-determined values for personal injury claims, you must work with the staff to compile all your allowable expenses and losses due to your injuries. In most cases, these items will include:
If your injuries were particularly severe or required a lengthy recovery time, it is also common to include a dollar amount to compensate you for the pain and suffering caused. The Lone Star Injury Law Firm staff will often provide this amount based on their expertise in these cases and previous experience with clients who suffered similar injuries.
An injury’s impact on a victim can vary based on their age, health, and physical condition. However, some accident injuries are almost always considered severe due to the lifelong challenges or pain that they create. These injuries include but are not limited to:
Any of these injuries could prove life-altering to the victim or result in a lifetime of pain, medical treatment, and a loss of quality of life. These issues are made even worse when the victim discovers that the entire incident could have been prevented if the Jimmy John’s staff had taken the time to follow the basic rules of duty of care to avoid minor issues before they caused significant injuries.
As a personal injury victim, you have two years from the date of the incident to file a claim against Jimmy John’s for your losses and expenses. If the case is not filed in that time, you will typically lose the right to seek compensation for costs created by that event. However, the claim can be filed as soon as it is completed by your legal team at Lone Star Injury Law Firm if you need the money for living expenses and other bills.

We also understand that paying upfront legal fees can be impossible when you are injured and unable to work. So our payment policy never requires any out of pocket payments from our clients.
