If you suffered injuries in a slip and fall accident in a Fort Lauderdale Dollar Tree, you could get financial coverage for medical expenses, lost income, and other damages. You could also seek compensation if your loved one passed away from a fall.
Chalik & Chalik Injury Lawyers will fight for fair financial recovery.
Who Can Seek Compensation for a Fall at a Fort Lauderdale Dollar Tree?
You might be eligible to pursue compensation from a Fort Lauderdale Dollar Tree if:
- You suffered injuries from a fall in a Dollar Tree store, sidewalk, or parking lot.
- Your loved one suffered injuries in a Dollar Tree store, sidewalk, or parking lot, and their injuries prevent them from bringing their own legal action.
- Your loved one passed away from injuries suffered on Dollar Tree’s property.
Chalik & Chalik Injury Lawyers can review your personal injury case and explain whether you have reason to take legal action. You may generally have reason to bring a lawsuit or insurance claim if you or your loved one suffer negligence. Our team can recognize when negligence has taken place. We generally prove negligence against owners of dangerous properties by:
- Establishing that the property owner—in this case, Dollar Tree—owed you a duty of care
- Proving that the property owner, or another liable party, breached their duty of care by exposing you to a slipping hazard
- Proving that the breach of duty of care caused you to slip
- Establishing the damages you’ve suffered because of the slip and fall accident at Dollar Tree
In making these arguments, we can use evidence of negligence and proof of your damages.

Our Team Will Prove the Party At-Fault for Your Slip and Fall Damages
Dollar Tree might be responsible for your losses. Other individuals, such as the owner of the specific store where your injury happened, may also be at fault. Fault varies from case to case, and our team will review the facts of your case to identify all defendants.
Dollar Tree had a responsibility to remove all possible slipping hazards, including:
- Cracked flooring tiles
- Spills from liquids sold in the store
- Condensation from the store’s air conditioner
- Rain-related moisture
- Loose items on the floor
- Any other hazards that could cause a slip and fall accident
If Dollar Tree management or employees failed by exposing you to a slipping risk, Dollar Tree could be responsible for your damages.
