Serious injuries can result from retail hazards. If a manager knew or should have known about a hazard, but failed to remove or fix the hazard, then stores can be liable for injuries occurring on its premises. Failing to clean up a spill and leaving cardboard boxes or merchandise in an aisle are preventable tripping hazards, but are often overlooked.

A premises injury can disrupt your life in an instant. After experiencing a severe injury at a store or business, retaining legal counsel is a very crucial first step. Thomas Creech uses his 20 years of courtroom experience to advocate on behalf of clients with serious injuries due to a defect in the property or on the premises. These defects can cause shoulder injuries, torn rotator cuffs, broken hips, fractured wrists, and traumatic brain injuries.

Retail Hazards Cases

A person should never attempt to represent themselves against a giant corporation or its insurance company. These cases require experienced legal counsel.

Expert witnesses, such as forensic architects, can assist the attorney in identifying premises hazards and violations of safety codes and standards. Video surveillance is a crucial piece of evidence in premises liability cases because when there is a factual dispute, video footage of the incident can help clarify the situation for the jury.

When serious injuries occur, they may require complex and costly procedures. The medical records can be thousands of pages long and they must be organized and carefully reviewed by your attorney.

Big box retailers and other big stores also have detailed policies and procedures that are developed in order to minimize or prevent injuries from occurring. In any case, involving litigation, we seek out those policies and procedures to see if there are any relevant violations.

At Thomas Creech Law Offices, we have fought some of the biggest retailers in the country to gain fair compensation for the injuries suffered by our clients. Premises injury cases can cause very serious permanent impairment.

We have been advocating in courtrooms for twenty years. When necessary, we will fight a very tough courtroom fight on behalf of our clients. But we hope we aim to keep our clients out of the courtroom with a just, fair, and reasonable resolution and settlement of their personal injury claims.
