If you or your loved one suffered a slip and fall accident at a grocery store, Van Law can help you pursue compensation for your injuries and damages. Our attorneys can recover your financial losses with a premises liability claim or lawsuit against the property owner or manager responsible for the store’s condition.
Possible Compensation for a Grocery Store Slip and Fall Injury

Grocery Store Slip and Fall Accident Liability
Property owners or lessees have a legal duty to keep the premises they control safe for guests and customers. When they fail to do so, injured parties can hold them financially accountable for damages resulting from their negligence. For example, you may have a premises liability case against a grocery store owner or manager if one of the following caused your slip and fall:
- Neglected spills or puddles
- Leaking refrigerators, freezers, or display cases
- Leaking pipes or ceilings
- Cracked or broken flooring
- Boxes or products left in aisles or walkways
- Failure to post “wet floor” signs or other warnings regarding known hazards
- Broken or cracked pavement on store sidewalks or parking lots
- Negligent snow and ice removal
- Falling products or toppled displays
- Lack of lighting
- Failure to use safety mats or non-slip mats where needed
We Will Establish Your Right to Financial Recovery
Winning compensation requires proving that negligence led to the fall that caused your injuries and pain and suffering. Our attorneys will establish your right to collect damages using state and federal laws, legal precedent, and evidence, which may include:
- Medical records
- Police or accident reports
- Photographs and physical data from the accident scene
- Surveillance or cell phone video of your fall
- Eyewitness accounts
- Expert testimony
- Invoices, pay stubs, bills, receipts, and other proof of your losses
You Have a Limited Time to Act
Every state has a statute of limitations that outlines how long you have to file a personal injury or wrongful death lawsuit. Depending on where you live, you could have as little as one year or as long as six years to pursue your case.
If you do not take action before time expires, the court will likely bar you from seeking recovery. An expired deadline will also reduce your insurance bargaining power and may lead to a denied claim or reduced settlement. We can help you get started today.
Slips, Trips, and Falls Can Lead to Serious Injuries
According to the National Safety Council (NSC), fall injuries sent nearly 7 million Americans to the emergency room for treatment in 2020. In addition, falls are the second-leading cause of injury-related death in the United States and the leading cause of accidental death for older adults.
Our firm has experience with cases involving debilitating, catastrophic, and fatal injuries. We can fight for you if you suffered:
- Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
- Spinal cord injury (SCI)
- A broken bone or hip fracture
- Back, neck, or shoulder injuries
- Dental or facial injuries
- Sprains, strains, or soft tissue injuries
