Types of 7-11 Store Incidents
There are a number of incidents that could occur on the premises of a 7-Eleven store. Consider some of the following types of incidents listed below:

• Slip and fall accidents: slip and fall accidents typically occur due to hazards on the floor. Some hazards that could directly contribute to slip and fall accidents include wet floors, leaks, slippery surfaces, freshly mopped floors, spilled products, and littered floors, for examples. These hazards can easily cause unsuspecting parties to slip, falling and suffering injuries.
• Trip and fall accidents: trip and fall accidents also occur due to hazards on the floor. The hazards that could directly lead to trip and fall accidents include misplaced floor mats, torn carpeting, exposed wiring (including extension cords), boxes on the floor (blocking aisles), broken concrete, uneven sidewalks, and potholes, for example. These hazards can cause parties to trip, falling and potentially suffer injuries.
• Falling objects (including falling signs): objects can fall at any time. If objects are incorrectly stored or installed in elevated areas, they can fall onto unsuspecting parties. Falling objects, such as displayed products and signs, for example, can fall and hit customers on the head or on other parts of their body, resulting in significant harm.
• Assault and battery: assault and battery incidents can also occur on store premises. An individual or a group of individuals can threaten to attack and actually go through with the attack against an unsuspecting person. Depending on the details surrounding the incident, the victim could suffer significant harm.
  Sexual assault: sexual assault incidents are also, unfortunately, common on any premises. Victims can be sexually attacked while in the store, going into the store, going out of the store, or while in the store parking lot. Without a doubt, sexual assault incidents can lead to severe physical, mental, and emotional injuries.

Regardless of the specific type of injuries that you or a member of your family suffered due to an incident at a 7-Eleven store, significant harm is likely. Based on the details surrounding the incident (and the harm suffered), you could sue for the harm that you or a member of your family suffered.

Common Injuries
Did you suffer a 7-Eleven store injury? Were you involved in a 7-11 incident that resulted in harm? The incidents mentioned above could result in a number of injuries, some of which could include the following:

• Head injuries
• Traumatic brain injuries

If you suffered injuries or a member of your family lost his or her life after a 7-Eleven incident, do not hesitate to seek legal assistance as soon as possible – you might have grounds to sue.

Your Right to Sue Based on Premise Liability
Do you have the right to sue for the harm resulting from a 7-11 incident? Based on the details surrounding the incident, you might have the right to sue – specifically, because of the concept of premise liability. What is premise liability? How does premise liability determine your right to pursue a claim? Based on premise liability, property owners have a duty to ensure that their property is free of any hazards that could contribute to harm to consumers. They must test and inspect their premises to ensure that their entire premises are free of any dangers. This includes hazards that could lead to slip and fall incidents, trip and fall incidents, falling object incidents, assault and battery incidents, and sexual assault incidents. Yes, even assault and battery and sexual assault incidents, which are typically associated with the maliciousness and recklessness of the attacker, can be associated with the negligence of the store owner; this is because a number of things, such as increased security and well-lit parking areas, for example, can deter such attacks. When property owners fail to take the measures necessary to ensure that their premises are completely safe for their guests, they are breaching their duty of care. The breach of duty could contribute to an incident which can directly harm innocent guests.

What does this mean? Because of the concept of premise liability, store owners could be liable for the harm that their guest suffered due to their breach of duty. If you would like to learn more about your right to sue based on the concept of premise liability, do not hesitate to seek legal assistance with the experts at our firm as soon as possible.

What Should You Do?
If you suffered a 7-11 incident, there are a number of things that you should do to be able to pursue your premise liability claim effectively. What should you do? Consider some of the recommendations listed below:

• Take photos of all physical injuries suffered
• Seek medical care as soon as possible
• Take photos of the scene of the incident
• Report the incident to the store owner (you might have to go through employees and managers before being able to report the incident to the store owner)
• Take note of all parties affiliated with 7-11 with which you speak relating to your incident
• Report the incident to the local authorities (if you suffered an assault and battery incident or a sexual assault incident)
• Collect any video footage that might have captured the incident
• Speak to witnesses and collect their contact information for later reference
• Gather all medical records
• Gather any records of lost wages resulting from the incident
• Gather any records of property damage resulting from the incident
• Seek legal assistance as soon as possible

File Your Claim Within the Deadline
Although you might have grounds to sue based on premise liability, you could, unfortunately, lose your right to sue if you fail to file your claim within the appropriate length of time. This is because your claim is subject to a statute of limitations. What is a statute of limitations, and how does it affect your right to sue? A statute of limitations determines the total length of time that claimants have to file their claims; if claimants do not file within the allotted time, they could lose their right to sue. Normally, premise liability claims (filed in the state of California) are subject to a two-year statute of limitations; therefore, claimants will only have two years to sue. However, it is possible for exceptions to the statute of limitations to apply, effectively tolling the applicable deadline. To ensure that you have a thorough understanding of the time that you have to sue, contact our firm today.
