MOD Pizza, which stands for “Made on Demand” Pizza, is a chain of pizza restaurants founded by James Markham, Ally Svenson, and Scott Svenson. The company has experienced huge growth and expansion in the last decade, and there are currently around 500 MOD Pizza locations throughout the United States and Canada. According to the founders, they have always been “more about the people than the pizza,” which includes their employees.
While this is a noble concept, putting people first isn’t just about offering a high quality product. Restaurant owners must also take care of their premises and ensure that all the necessary measures have been taken to keep people from being injured. However, we know for a fact that accidents are a common occurrence at pizza parlors. Most of these incidents are caused by acts of negligence or misconduct, either by the owners or people working at the restaurant. Accidents that can result in an injury at MOD Pizza include:
- Trip and fall
- Slip and fall
- Burn injury from hot food, plates, trays, etc.
- Falling object accident
- Injuries in restaurant bathroom
- Parking lot accident
- Assault and battery / sexual assault

Suing for an Injury at MOD Pizza
As someone that was injured at a MOD Pizza restaurant, you may have the right to seek financial restitution from the store. Your right to a lawsuit is based on premises liability, which is a legal concept that holds owners accountable if there was a dangerous condition on their property that caused injury to another party. This includes hazards like water on the floor that can lead to a slip and fall or objects that fall on someone because they are not secured properly.
Actions by employees are another source of injury for customers at a restaurant. Owners can be held liable in these cases, even if they did not directly cause the accident. For example, if carelessness by a staff member left you with burn injuries, you can file an injury claim against the store and receive payment for your medical expenses, lost wages, and other monetary damages.
If you had an accident at MOD Pizza due to a hazard on the premises or negligence by an employee, please contact us to learn more about your legal options.
Workers’ Compensation Benefits for MOD Pizza Employees
If you sustained injuries while working at MOD Pizza, you have the right to file for benefits under the state’s workers’ compensation program. Just make sure to tell your employer about your injury within 30 days so they can notify their insurance company and provide you with the claim forms. You will also need to see a doctor in their provider network, who will diagnose and treat your injuries. This is absolutely essential to obtaining your benefits, so please talk to your supervisor immediately if you were injured during your shift at MOD Pizza.
Once you’ve submitted the necessary paperwork, you expect that it will be approved without any issues. Unfortunately, many workers run into problems, including claim denials for reasons that don’t make sense to them. If you are having any issues with your workers’ comp claim and need assistance from a workplace injury attorney, don’t hesitate to give us a call. We also have bilingual lawyers at our office that speak a wide variety of languages, including Spanish, Chinese, Korean, Persian, and Amharic. We look forward to assisting you and recovering the compensation you are entitled to.
How Long Do I have to File an Injury Claim?
The statute of limitations for a lawsuit against MOD Pizza depends on whether you are a guest / visitor or someone that works at the restaurant. If, for example, you are a customer, you must file a compensation claim no less than two years from the time you are injured. The timeline, however, is much shorter if you are seeking worker’s compensation benefits. In that case, you have one year from the accident date to file your claim. In addition, you must notify your employer of the accident within 30 days.
To ensure that your lawsuit or workplace injury claim is filed by the applicable deadline, contact our law firm as soon as possible.
How Much will I Receive from a Lawsuit against MOD Pizza?
The value of an accident injury case is individual to each claimant and the losses they have suffered. That’s why you will see great variations in settlement values, with some people receiving around $15,000 to $50,000, while others are awarded $500,000 to $2,500,000 or more. What you deserve from a personal injury claim against MOD Pizza depends on various circumstances, which we can discuss with you during a free consultation.
Length of Time to Reach a Settlement
The process of negotiating a settlement with MOD Pizza’s insurance can take around 6 to 10 months on average, though it’s possible to reach an agreement in just a few weeks. However, this will depend largely on the restaurant’s cooperation, i.e., how willing they are to work towards a settlement. If the company is especially resistant to making a reasonable offer, a lawsuit will need to be filed, along with other legal actions that will take one of more years to resolve. That’s why we are honest about the fact that it can take up to several years to settle a restaurant injury claim, though most cases are settled within the first year.
Ask us for a Free Second Opinion
As we’ve mentioned, it can take considerable time to recover the payment you deserve when you have been injured at a MOD Pizza location. In the meantime, your lawyer should be providing you with updates and clear answers to all your questions. So, what can you do if you are not getting this level of service from your current attorney? A free second opinion is the ideal solution, which you can schedule by contacting us at your earliest convenience. Our main objective is to provide legal advice and guidance, which will help you decide on the best course of action for you and your loved ones. Again, this is a free service here at Normandie Law Firm, so please take advantage of a second opinion if you have a pending restaurant accident injury case.
