Miami Mobil Gas Station Slip and Fall Accident & Injury Lawyer

Almost everyone in Miami who owns a car has pulled into a Mobil gas station for a quick fill-up. Although most gas runs are routine, they can be dangerous. Mobil gas stations may have several hazards that could cause you to slip and fall and lead to serious injury. A Miami Mobil gas station slip and fall accident & injury lawyer can help you seek compensation for those injuries.

In addition to medical bills, a Mobil gas station accident can cause you to miss work and create other unforeseen expenses. You shouldn’t have to pay the cost of an injury you didn’t cause. Chalik & Chalik Injury Lawyers wants to help you hold Mobil accountable for your slip and fall accident-related injuries. 

What Can a Miami Mobil Slip and Fall Accident Lawyer Do for You?

Collecting damages after a slip and fall accident isn’t easy. Before you can collect damages, you must prove:

• The Mobil station where you got hurt was negligent.
• Mobil’s negligence caused your injury. 
• You suffered financial damages as a result.

A Mobil gas station accident attorney from Chalik & Chalik Injury Lawyers can help you prove these necessary elements of negligence.

When you become a Chalik & Chalik Injury Lawyers client, you will work directly with our founding attorneys. We don’t just care about collecting a settlement in your case. We care about your well-being, and we are committed to your recovery. If you plan to demand damages from a large corporation like Exxon Mobil, it helps to have a legal team that’s personally committed to fighting for your cause. 

What Leads to Slip and Fall Injury Accidents at Mobil Gas Stations?

The very nature of gas stations and the products they sell creates ample opportunities for slip and fall accidents. Every Mobil station has a legal requirement to manage these potential hazards proactively and reduce the possibility that they could cause injury. Unfortunately, employees or management at Mobil stations don’t always do this, and that can lead to injuries for customers. 

Examples of the potential slip and fall hazards at Mobil stations include:

• Liquid spills, such as oil, water, gasoline, or windshield cleaner fluid
• Gas pump nozzles and hoses not put back into the pump properly

It only takes a second for any of these slip and fall hazards to cause an injury accident in Miami.

What Damages Can You Demand After a Slip and Fall Injury Accident at a Miami Mobil Gas Station?

“Recoverable damages” is a blanket term that applies to any expenses you have that resulted from an accident caused by negligence. So, if you were hurt in a slip and fall accident, any of the following expenses could be classified as recoverable damages:

• Accident-related medical treatment
• Lost income or wages 
• Transportation to a medical facility after the accident
• Continuing care (if applicable), such as physical therapy
• Pain and suffering and other non-economic damages

How Much Are the Recoverable Damages in Your Case?

The first thing to understand when estimating the value of a slip and fall accident case is that no two cases are alike. Your injuries and the cost of treating them will be completely different than for any other accident victim. The same principle applies to your lost wages. The amount of money you earn and the amount of time your injury will cause you to miss will be unique to your situation. 

This is why a Miami slip and fall lawyer from our firm wants to meet with you to discuss the facts surrounding your accident before estimating its value. We are very flexible about meeting clients for strategy sessions regarding their accident cases. We are happy to come to you where you are, and we have Spanish-speaking staff members as well (Hablamos Español).

During this strategy session, we’ll discuss the circumstances surrounding your accident. We will also review your medical bills and other expenses. After our slip and fall attorney has this information, they should be able to advise you on the potential value of your case. 

Chalik & Chalik Injury Lawyers Has Won Damages in Several Slip and Fall Accident Cases

• Slip and fall that resulted in a spinal injury: $400,000 settlement

When Should I Demand Damages After a Miami Mobil Gas Station Slip and Fall Accident?

For obvious reasons, you might not demand damages immediately after your accident. You may still be recovering and receiving medical treatment. It may also still be unclear when you can return to work. Since you need to know the total amount of both losses, it’s hard to demand damages without that information. 

That’s why Florida law (Florida Statutes § 95.11) gives you two years to file a lawsuit after a personal injury such as a slip and fall accident. In most cases, this statute of limitations gives you enough time to recover and demand damages. The two-year period begins on the date of your accident. 

However, you can reach out to our office anytime after your accident. In fact, we recommend you reach out as early as possible. The sooner a Miami Mobil gas station slip and fall accident & injury lawyer can begin working on your case, the more likely it is they will uncover strong evidence that proves negligence in your slip and fall case.
