Average Value Of An Accident Injury Case Against Chick Fil A

Chick Fil A is one of the nation’s most popular fast food restaurants with over 3050 locations in 48 states, Washington D.C. and Puerto Rico. In the state of California, there are 167 locations, which is among the top four in the country. So, it is relatively commonplace for a California resident to stop for a fast meal or snack that is more healthy than the average burger combo meal. This idea is further reinforced by the double line found throughout the day in their drive thru and inside the restaurants.

With people flocking to their nearest Chick Fil A location, it is to be expected that these stores have their share of drink spills, food hitting the floor and overflowing trashcans at peak business hours. But what you might not think about until you become a victim, is that all these people and the frantic activity at Chick Fil A means they also experience a significantly high number of accident injuries in their locations. And if you do not believe this is true, consider the action Chick Fil A has taken to protect themselves when sued for accident injuries in their locations.

Currently, Chick Fil A carries a $200,000,000 insurance policy to cover any accidents in their locations across the country. That is a massive amount of coverage when you know that some restaurants carry only $1,000,000 in liability coverage. Of course, it does not mean that each person hurt in an accident at Chick Fil A will receive a check for $200,000,000. But it does mean that a victim who suffers significant injuries while at a Chick Fil A does not need to worry that a lack of insurance coverage will result in them facing massive out-of-pocket medical expenses or other costs.

Why Does Chick Fil A Carry A $200,000,000 Insurance Policy?
As most consumers know, insurance is not considered to be very affordable in most cases. You pay a lot of money to have the peace of mind that comes with a large insurance policy. So, many people are asking why does Chick Fil A invests what must be a significant amount of money in a $200,000,000 policy. And the answer is oddly simple. The company knows that its locations suffer a shockingly high number of injury accidents and that a massive insurance policy is its only protection against all the lawsuits they face each year.

Common Injury Accidents Occurring At Chick Fil A Locations
Sadly, fast food restaurants can be very hazardous if the staff and management are not extremely dedicated to safety and protecting patrons from hazardous conditions. The expert legal team at Normandie Law Firm has assisted many injury victims who suffered a variety of injuries at Chick Fil A due to these common hazards:

• Wet floors that were recently mopped but have no warning sign to alert customers of the hazard
• Water or other drinks that are spilled on the floor but not mopped up promptly
• Grease that is tracked from the food production area floors to the dining area or order counter
• Leaking water lines, equipment hoses, plumbing fixtures, or coolant tubes that are damaged and leak onto the floor
• Damaged, folded, or missing floor mats
• Trash or litter on the floors
• Damaged or uneven flooring surfaces
• Poorly marked or unmarked steps or ramps
• Hoses or electrical cords left in walkways
• Poorly lit areas of the store or parking lot that result in a trip and fall or slip and fall
• Items falling from storage areas injuring customers
• Faulty wiring or switches that result in an electrical shock
• Damaged or overgrown landscape that blocks pathways
• Objects in the parking lot that obscure a driver’s view and result in a car versus pedestrian accident

These are only a small number of the more common accidents that occur in Chick Fil A restaurants that have encouraged the management to carry a 200,000,000 insurance policy. Sadly, many of these issues could be prevented if the store staff only made more effort to comply with the guidelines and laws of premises liability and duty of care to ensure that the property is safe for guests and customers and remains free of common safety hazards.

When Do I Have The Right To Sue Chick Fil A For An Injury?
Your ability to sue Chick Fil A when you are injured on its property is determined by premises liability law and, more specifically, the duty of care that is required. All property owners have an obligation to maintain their private or public property in a safe condition. The necessary level of care is defined as what the average prudent person would provide. So, it is simple for the staff at Chick Fil A to understand what is expected of them as representatives of the company.

They must act as any person would in their own home if they discovered a safety hazard. For example, if ice is dropped on the floor, it must be cleaned up and not allowed to melt into a puddle that could cause someone to slip and fall. If an employee fails to provide this expected level of care, they are negligent in their duty of care.

When it is determined that negligence caused or contributed to a person’s accident injuries at a Chick Fil A, the company can be held liable for the losses and damages of the victim.

How Long Do I Have To File My Chick Fil A Injury Lawsuit?
In California, personal injury victims have two years from the date of the injury incident to file a claim with the court. If the case is not filed in that time, the victim will typically lose the right to seek compensation for any harm sustained due to that particular event.

How Is My Lawsuit Compensation Amount Determined?
As previously mentioned, just because Chick Fil A has a $200,000,000 insurance policy does not mean each victim of an injury on their property will receive that much in compensation. Instead, the value of each lawsuit is carefully determined by compiling all of the allowable losses and expenses suffered by the victim. You will work with the seasoned staff at Normandie Law Firm and your Chick Fil A injury lawyer to gather information and documentation pertaining to:

• All of your medical expenses related to the injuries suffered at Chick Fil A, which includes essential medical devices, prescribed medication, therapy or rehabilitation, and any estimated future medical expenses for necessary services due to the injuries at Chick Fil A
• Your lost wages if your injuries prevent you from performing your job until you are fully recovered and for any work missed to attend medical appointments or treatment
• The replacement cost of any personal property that was damaged or destroyed in the incident
• All expenses and legal fees related to your Chick Fil A injury lawsuit

In cases with severe injuries or injuries that have a lengthy recovery time, it is common for the victim to be compensated for their pain and suffering, as well as the other documented items listed above.
