Filing a Slip and Fall Personal Injury Claim after an Accident at an Apple Store*

Apple Stores, just like any retail store, may not at first appear prime locations for personal injury accidents to occur, but the truth of the matter is that slip and fall injuries can happen anywhere. If you’ve been injured in an accident that occurred inside or on the premises of a retail store, you may have a personal injury claim that could pay your medical expenses, any lost wages, or other personal or financial losses you’ve experienced.

Slip and Falls in a Retail Store

Retail outlets don’t feature typical slip and fall hazards, like liquid products that can be spilled on the floor or merchandize that is continually rotated for display. However, stores do present their own unique hazards, including:

  • Varied flooring surfaces, including a mix of rugs, tile, and laminate flooring, dependent upon location
  • Sometimes cramped and busy showroom floors
  • Most products are wireless, but there are occasionally wires running to and from electronics on display
  • Some stores feature glass, circular staircases on which patrons can trip or slip
  • Seating at display tables includes bar-style stools, bean-bag-like chairs, and other furniture from which patrons may slip and fall as well

Slip and fall claims against retails stores are not uncommon. After all, a slip and fall accident can happen anywhere. Any accident that occurs due to a store’s failure to provide a safe environment may make the store or the corporation liable.

Working With a Personal Injury Attorney

If you’ve had an accident and suffered injuries as a result, then you may have a claim. You should however consider hiring an attorney, particularly when dealing with a big business like Apple. Your lawyer can help you navigate the insurance negotiations process and can handle a lawsuit, if you must take your claim to court.
