Understanding More About A Walmart Lawsuit
Now that you know you can afford to file a claim against Walmart when you hire Normandie Law Firm, you need to understand when you actually have reason to file a lawsuit. Just because you fell or got hurt while in a Walmart store is not grounds for a lawsuit. The reason for your injuries must fall on the company, staff, and its lack of care in the store or negligence in its duty of care to ensure you have grounds for a claim.
What Is Duty Of Care?
Duty of care is part of premises liability law. It defines the level of care that must be provided by property owners and their staff to ensure the safety of guests, patrons, or the general public when on the property. The guidelines are written in simple terms and are easy for anyone to read, understand, and follow. Basically, the property owners and agents are required to deliver the same level of care as would be provided by the average prudent person. So, if you take specific safety measures at home to prevent an injury, the staff at Walmart should follow the same or a similar process.
For example, if water is spilled on the floor, you mop it up so no one slips and falls. Or if there is a burned-out lightbulb, you replace it so no one falls in the dark hallway or down the steps. These are basic safety measured that the average prudent person would follow at home or at work and it is what is expected of the staff at Walmart.
If the Walmart staff fails to meet this basic level of care, they are deemed negligent in their duty of care. Furthermore, if that negligence is later determined to have contributed to or caused a victim to suffer an injury accident on the property, Walmart could be liable for the person’s losses and expenses due to their injuries. If Walmart refuses to pay these costs, the victim is within their rights to file a personal injury lawsuit against Walmart.
How Much Is The Average Walmart Personal Injury Lawsuit Worth?
Each Walmart lawsuit will have a different value because each case’s compensation is determined based on the losses and expenses incurred by the victim. There are no preset amounts for a broken arm or an injury from a box falling on a shopper. Your legal team at Normandie Law Firm will assist you in gathering all allowable expenses and costs you incurred due to the harm you sustained to ensure you are fully compensated. The typical expenses included in a Walmart personal injury lawsuit are:
- All current and projected future medical expenses related to the injuries suffered at Walmart
- The replacement cost of any personal property that was damaged or destroyed in the injury incident
- All legal costs for the Walmart lawsuit
- Your lost income if the injuries suffered prevented you from working at your regular job until you were fully recovered and any time missed from work to attend medical appointments or treatment
- If your injuries are severe, it is customary to include compensation for your pain and suffering
How Long Do I Have To File A Walmart Personal Injury Lawsuit?
As the victim of a personal injury in California, you have two years from the date of the incident to file your lawsuit with the court. That is the time provided by the Statute of Limitations. If the case is not filed with the court when the Statute of Limitations expires, you will lose the right to ever pursue legal action for the harm suffered during that event. In addition, it is vital to know that there are minimal exceptions to this rule. So, contact Normandie Law Firm as quickly as possible to ensure you have the time necessary to devote to making this possibly life-altering decision.
What You Will Pay To Sue Walmart
Filing a lawsuit against Walmart is never free. There are expenses to gather information and prepare the case, as well as the time invested by the legal team. Once the case is ready to be filed, there are filing fees that must be paid to the court. However, when you hire Normandie Law Firm to represent you and prepare your Walmart lawsuit, you do not pay any of these expenses out of your pocket. Instead, our firm covers all the costs for you.
We know that many victims face significant financial challenges after suffering an injury and paying legal fees and costs will prohibit them from getting the justice and compensation they deserve.
