Grocery stores are seldom thought of as particularly dangerous places, and most of us don’t ever imagine a serious accident occurring as we stroll down the produce aisle. Unfortunately, when supermarket ownership or staff fails to adequately maintain the premises, a wide array of hazards can quickly manifest. If you have been injured in a supermarket accident due to no fault of your own, you should strongly consider retaining the services of a seasoned Birmingham supermarket accident lawyer who can help you fight for the full and fair compensation to which you are entitled.
If you’ve sustained an injury in a supermarket accident, you need a lawyer who can help you get the justice and compensation you deserve. A seasoned Birmingham slip and fall lawyer can do many things for you, such as: finding out what happened and why; collecting proof of your injury and the store’s negligence; figuring out who is responsible for your accident, whether it is the store owner, manager, worker, or someone else; talking to the insurance company or the store’s lawyers and trying to get a fair settlement; taking your case to court if they don’t agree to pay you what you deserve; and fighting for the highest amount of money possible for your medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and other losses. Don’t make the mistake of proceeding without a dedicated attorney in your corner. Contact our firm today.

However, you will have to do what you can to document the incident to satisfy the burden of proof in your personal injury claim.
After your accident, if possible, you should take several steps to document exactly how the accident happened. This can include:
Finally, you should always hire a seasoned supermarket accident lawyer who can help you obtain all other information necessary to satisfy the burden of proof, such as surveillance footage of your accident as it happened.
Ensure you file your claim within two years of the date of your accident, for if you don’t, you’ll most likely be permanently barred from suing.
