Supermarket Injuries

Supermarket Injuries Attorneys In New Jersey

Supermarkets, grocery stores, wholesale food stores, and other retail stores are the site of many accidental injuries each year. These stores are designed to focus the customer’s attention on shelves of merchandise, often leaving them vulnerable to conditions on the floors. Supermarkets and grocery stores, which sell produce and refrigerated meats, are particularly susceptible to spills on the floor which can cause slip and fall injuries. These stores are responsible to regularly inspect the floors, check merchandise displays and take all reasonable precautions for the safety of shoppers and workers. If you have been injured in a supermarket, grocery, or other store, you may be entitled to compensation.

Skilled Investigation

Was an accident report prepared by the store?

  • Is there a security video depicting the injury or fall?
  • Did personnel at the store know about a spill and fail to clean it up in a timely manner?
  • Was the store improperly staffed to account for crowded conditions and abundance of merchandise?
  • What was the store’s protocol for inspection of the store?

The team at Krivitzky, Springer & Feldman can thoroughly investigate the circumstances of your supermarket injury to determine all possible responsible parties and to maximize your potential recovery.
