Filing a Personal Injury Claim for Injuries Caused by a Retailer

As the holidays approach, you may frequent Nebraska grocery stores, shopping malls, and other retailers more often than usual.

When Is a Retailer Liable for Customer Injury?

Retailers, like big box stores, chain stores, and other businesses, are legally obligated to keep their property safe and free of any foreseeable hazards for anyone conducting legal business. This includes contractors, shoppers, wholesalers, employees, and delivery drivers. Retailers can breach this duty in several ways, causing serious injuries to customers or other invitees on their premises. 

Depending on the unique details of your case, you may file one of the following types of personal injury claims if you were legally on the retailer’s property, they breached their duty of care, and directly caused you harm:

• Premises liability: If you suffered injuries because a retailer failed to keep their property safe from foreseeable dangers or hazards, you may file a premises liability claim. This may include a poorly lit parking lot, unsafe stacking, slippery floors with no warning signs, and broken railings.
• Product liability: If you purchase a defective product from a retailer, and the product causes you harm, the retailer may be liable if they knew or should have known the product was defective and still sold it or failed to warn you of these dangers.

At Knowles Law Firm, we understand the unique challenges of filing a claim against retailers who often have large legal teams and insurance companies trying to unfairly blame you for your injuries. We work closely with you to develop a personalized strategy tailored to your needs to help you achieve the justice and compensation you deserve.
