Sam’s Club Slip and Fall Lawyer in Florida

Many people in Florida enjoy their membership with Sam’s Club. These large stores provide a wide range of products for warehouse prices. They can also represent dangerous locations for customers if store owners do not quickly deal with potential hazards. Property owners who allow spills and other hazards to go unattended could be held responsible for slip and fall accidents in their store. 

You could secure compensation for your medical expenses and other losses after a slip and fall injury. Find out more about how you can get the damages you deserve by contacting Chalik & Chalik Injury Lawyers. Our Florida Sam’s Club slip and fall accident and injury lawyer is ready to start working for you right now.

Steps to Take After a Sam’s Club Slip and Fall Accident

There are around 600 Sam’s Clubs operational right now around the country. These stores are part of a major business empire that is supported by powerful insurance companies and lawyers. For this reason, contacting a professional legal team is one of the first things you should do after a Sam’s Club slip and fall accident.

Your lawyer can handle all communication with insurance agents and Sam’s Club representatives. This is important, as these individuals can try to approach you directly to:

• Convince you to accept a subpar settlement offer.
• Get you to admit fault for the accident.
• Trick you into underrepresenting the extent of your injuries.

In addition to getting legal help, you should also seek immediate treatment for your injuries. Finally, ensure that you appropriately report your slip and fall accident and that you record as much of your accident’s scene as possible.

Mistakes to Avoid After Getting Hurt in a Sam’s Club Slip and Fall Accident

Many people like to share with their friends and relatives after something happens in their lives, so they post photos and comments after getting hurt in an accident. Even if your social media account has privacy settings, the defendant’s insurance company will likely be able to access what you post. It is better to wait until after your case to go on social media.

You might assume that the insurance company is supposed to make you a fair offer for your injuries and losses, but that is not really their job. Insurance companies stay in business and make a profit by paying as little money as possible on claims. 

This reality does not make them bad people. You simply need to get someone on your side, like our slip and fall accident attorney, to go to bat for you.

Common Results of Slip and Fall Accidents in Sam’s Club

Slip and fall accidents in Florida can result in serious injuries, especially among older individuals. Some of the most common injuries that we see after a slip and fall accident include:

• Sprains, fractures, and broken bones.
• Damage to ligaments and tendons, especially in arms.
• Neck, back, head, and spine injuries.

You could be entitled to compensation for the medical treatment you need to recover from these injuries if you had a slip and fall accident in a Sam’s Club. You could also seek damages for your:

• Lost wages at work while recovering.
• Lost earning potential for serious injuries.
• Pain and suffering.

Working with a Florida Sam’s Club slip and fall accident and injury lawyer from Chalik & Chalik Injury Lawyers could help you get the compensation you deserve.

Securing Compensation with a Premises Liability Claim

Generally, you will be able to seek damages after a slip and fall accident by filing a premises liability claim. This claim will require your slip and fall lawyer to demonstrate that:

• Your accident was caused by a hazard in a Sam’s Club.
• The property owners knew that this hazard existed and did not remove it.
• Your accident led directly to your injuries.
• You now have damages because of your injuries.

You should be aware that Sam’s Club representatives may try to blame you for some portion of the accident. Florida can assign percentages of blame to different individuals involved in the accident, which can reduce your overall compensation.

Make sure you are ready to deal with all aspects of your legal case – including assertions that you caused the accident – by working with the team at Chalik & Chalik Injury Lawyers now.

Move Quickly After a Florida Sam’s Club Slip and Fall Accident

You will only be given two years to file a premises liability lawsuit in Florida, according to Florida Statutes § 95.11(3)(a). Your lawyer can build your case more successfully if they have ample time to investigate your accident, speak with witnesses, and go over your options.

After the deadline to file a lawsuit expires, so do your legal rights to compensation for your injuries and other losses. The defendant and their insurance company will not have to pay you any money at that point. They will stop negotiating because they are off the hook. You could end up with a stack of medical bills you might have to pay out of pocket.

Jason and Debi Chalik can begin working for you now. We won’t push you off to a junior associate when you turn to Chalik & Chalik Injury Lawyers for help. You will get to work directly with one of the partners in the law firm on your case. You also won’t have to worry about paying us any legal fees unless we can secure you the compensation you deserve after a Sam’s Club slip and fall accident.
