What Kind of Injuries Have ShopRite Customers Suffered?
Most slip and fall accidents at New Jersey ShopRite supermarkets have not resulted in life-threatening injuries. However, there are times when customers fall and, as a result, become severely injured. For instance, customers may slip, trip and fall due to a failure to warn of a dangerous condition, such as a wet or slippery floor that was recently cleaned by workers at the supermarket. Or customers may fall due to the failure of supermarket employees to clean the floors in the produce department where various fruits and/or vegetables could have fallen, and caused customers to slip on them. As a result of such a fall, customers may sustain serious injuries.
If you suffered a serious injury while shopping at a New Jersey ShopRite due to the negligence of its employees, you may have a valid case of negligence against the supermarket. You may be able to obtain damages for your injury.
Among the usual kinds of injuries that people sustain in slip and fall accidents are:
• Leg injury
• Back injury
• Shoulder injury
• Cuts and abrasions
If you have suffered these or other slip and fall injuries at ShopRite, you may be able to obtain compensation for your injuries. This compensation is comparable to that of other personal injury lawsuits, and could include:
• Medical bills
• Lost wages
• Loss of enjoyment of life
• Costs of rehabilitation
