Slip and Fall Lowe's

Lowe's offers variety to their customers by offering a large variety of home goods products in their warehouse-style department stores. Customers can find whatever they’re looking for on the hundreds of shelves, but the sheer size of their stores and inventory can cause more harm than good in some cases. Boxes on the floor, equipment in the aisles, unkempt walkways, and liquid spills can all cause someone to slip and fall if they aren’t fixed promptly, especially if someone isn’t paying attention to where they’re walking before the accident. Although there might be a hundred employees moving throughout the store, the blame for the accident falls on the property owner in most cases, as they are the ones with a legal duty to care about their premises.

Slip and falls can happen quickly, even to the most careful person. If you become a victim of a slip and fall in Lowe's, you should team up with a trusted attorney sooner rather than later. While not required, their involvement can significantly increase your chances of success, but you shouldn’t retain just any slip and fall attorney. Team up with a firm that gets results—Morgan & Morgan.

Your health and well-being are the most important following any accident, so make sure to seek medical attention if you can leave the scene of the accident under your own power. The medical professional in charge of your care should perform a comprehensive evaluation of your condition to determine the full extent of your damages. They should check for internal injuries, too, as many slip and fall cases leave the victims with internal damage that affects them later down the line. Some victims choose to withhold information from their doctor for one reason or another, but this can potentially hinder your ability to recover compensation for the damage you neglect to disclose.

Some slip and fall accidents can cause serious injuries, and the victim might require hospitalization to repair the damage. Even minor slip and falls can result in these injuries, but in either case, medical attention almost always lands you with a hefty expense. As medical costs rise globally, we’re seeing more and more accident victims left under a significant financial burden to add to their physical damage, all of which they’ll have to pay out of pocket without their rightful compensation. That’s why attorneys are so important. You don’t want to gamble with something as important as your fair and full restitution, so team up with an attorney to give yourself a competitive edge.

Slip and fall injuries vary depending on the severity of the fall, but no one should have to suffer damage at the hand of a negligent party. Lowe's and other major retailers are legally required to maintain a keen eye over their premises to ensure injuries like yours don’t happen. If they don’t, they’re in violation of the law, and you can potentially file a lawsuit against them to recover the damage you sustained.

Here are a few of the most common injuries that result from slip and falls:

• Bruises, both internal and external
• Broken bones
• Whiplash
• Torn ligaments/muscles
• Nerve damage
• Herniated discs
• Skull fractures
• Brain injuries
• Hip damage
• Dislocations
• Paralysis

Anyone who sustained any of the injuries above from a slip and fall in Lowe's accident has an ally and trusted legal partner in Morgan & Morgan. These accidents can cause injuries that affect you for the rest of your life, which is why we’re so committed to never settling for less than our clients deserve. We know that, without your rightful compensation, you’re forced to shoulder the burden of an accident you didn’t cause alone, so we’re prepared to do everything in our power to ensure we come out on top.

Your specific recovery will depend on the severity of your injuries, the jurisdiction the accident occurred in, and many other factors. Your attorney plays a bigger role than you’d think, too, as their legal experience will influence your ability to recover the full extent of your damages. Here are a few of the many damages that victims seek after a slip and fall accident:

• Medical expenses
• Lost wages
• Pain and suffering
• Diminished/Total loss of earning capacity
• Loss of quality of life
• Punitive damages
• Funeral benefits, in the case of wrongful death

Some of the damages above, like pain and suffering, are difficult to advocate for because the majority of the damage is internal. The at-fault party or insurance company won’t be able to accurately diagnose your suffering by looking at you across the table, nor will they be able to come to a precise dollar amount using their compensation calculators. In situations like these, attorneys are needed most, especially if the case is a hotly contested matter. They can advocate for the true value of what you sustained using legal experience and expertise, but that’s only if they have the necessary skill set behind them. Fortunately, all of Morgan & Morgan’s slip and fall attorneys have exactly that, making them uniquely capable of helping you fight back against a slip and fall Lowe's accident.

Many people choose to forgo hiring an attorney because of the price tag, which is often high. It’s an understandable choice, especially after a costly accident that’s left you under a significant financial burden, but you should know that not every firm charges their clients expensive retainer fees. At Morgan & Morgan, we’ve chosen to take a different route—one that allows our clients to afford our comprehensive representation after any accident, regardless of their financial status.

If you’re involved in a slip and fall Lowe’s accident, you can team up with America’s largest personal injury firm for no out-of-pocket costs.
