Types of Personal Injury Accidents on the Premises of McDonalds

There are many types of incidents that could occur on the premises of McDonalds or other fast-food restaurants. Some of the incidents that could occur include the following:

• Slip and fall accidents – slip and fall accidents are easily the most common types of personal injury accidents. They can occur anywhere as long as a slip hazard is present. Slip hazards include wet floors, slippery surfaces, recently mopped floors, leaks, spills, and littered floors. If a guest at the restaurant steps on any of the slip hazards, he or she could slip and fall and potentially suffer a number of injuries.
• Trip and fall accidents – trip and fall accidents can occur anywhere that a trip hazard is present. Examples of trip hazards include uneven surfaces, sudden changes in flooring, broken tiles, exposed wires, steep steps, broken concrete, and potholes, for instance. If a guest steps on a trip hazard, he or she could trip and fall and potentially suffer significant harm.
• Bathroom falls – restrooms are among the most dangerous places in fast-food restaurants. This is due to the fact that restrooms are rarely maintained. Restroom floors, in specific, are often dirty which can result in both slip and trip hazards. If sinks or toilets are broken, there is also a risk of harm to guests.
• Falling objects – fast-food restaurants typically have fans, signs, and posters hung on walls/ceilings. During specific seasons, they also put up décor. If objects are not installed correctly, for instance, they can fall and strike anyone walking, standing, or sitting in the immediate area, resulting in injuries.
• Assault and battery – assault and battery can happen at any time; the lack of security (including guards and surveillance cameras) as well as the presence of poorly lit, isolated areas could increase the risk of assault and battery.
• Sexual assault – sexual assault incidents can occur anywhere; fast-food restaurants are no exception. A lack of security guards and a lack of surveillance cameras can contribute to sexual assault incidents. Poor lit areas, in addition to isolated areas can also contribute to these incidents.
• Playground injuries – some fast-food restaurants still have play areas designed for children. A number of hazards could be present (including exposed screws, misplaced mats, etc.) that could lead to different incidents and harm to children.
• Parking lot incidents – falls are very common in parking lots; that is, guests could slip or trip while walking through parking lots. Parking lots as well as other outdoor areas (including sidewalks) are often neglected by fast-food restaurants. Incidents can occur and lead to significant injuries to unsuspecting parties.
• Drive-thru accidents – incidents at a drive-thru are also likely. These incidents can include auto incidents, pedestrian accidents, and other incidents.
• Food poisoning incidents – unfortunately, fast-food restaurant workers can fail to follow food-safety protocols which can affect the quality of the food. When a guest eats the food, he or she could suffer food poisoning. Depending on the severity of the food poisoning, a victim could be affected for a few days at a minimum.
• Burn incidents – McDonalds and other fast-food restaurants typically offer a number of hot beverages, like hot coffee. The coffee, however, could be too hot, which could result in burn injuries to victims. Hot coffee water could lead to third-degree burns in some cases.

These incidents can result in a number of injuries, including but not limited to the following: burn injuries; head injuries; traumatic brain injuries; neck injuries; back injuries; shoulder injuries; elbow injuries; knee injuries; hip injuries; spinal cord injuries; fractures; nerve injuries; muscle injuries; ligament injuries; internal bleeding; lacerations; sprains and strains; scrapes and bruises. Some injuries can potentially lead to long-term harm, which can be debilitating and/or disabling. It is also possible for some of these injuries to be fatal. Regardless of the specific type of incident and injuries that you or a member of your family suffered in a McDonalds incident, you should explore your legal options as you might have grounds to sue.

Our Recent Verdicts and Settlements

Understanding Premise Liability

Is McDonalds liable for the harm that you or a member of your family suffered in an incident on the fast-food restaurant’s premises? Based on the details surrounding the incident, McDonald’s could be liable. The concept of premise liability states that property owners could be liable for any harm that their guests suffer on their premises. More specifically, property owners owe their guests a duty of care (to keep the premises free of any hazards or dangerous conditions). Property owners can breach their duty of care and fail to identify and address dangerous conditions present throughout their premises. This can lead to an incident, which can result in harm. If an innocent guest is harmed as a direct result of a breached duty of care, the property owner could be liable.

In other words, if you or a member of your family suffered an incident at a McDonalds location, you could be eligible to pursue an injury claim against McDonalds. If you are interested in learning more about premise liability and your right to sue McDonalds for the harm that you or a member of your family suffered on the premises of a McDonalds anywhere in California, do not hesitate to seek legal assistance with the experts at our firm at your earliest convenience.

You Could Be Compensated

If your premise liability claim against McDonalds is successful, you could be eligible to recover monetary compensation. What could you receive? What type of compensation could you be eligible to recover if your claim is successful? Based on the details surrounding the incident, you could recover compensation for some of the following:

• Medical costs
• Lost wages
• Pain and suffering
• Property damage
• Funeral and burial costs
• Loss of consortium
• Punitive damages
• Legal expenses

The type and amount of compensation that you could receive depends on the details surrounding your claim; therefore, you should discuss the details surrounding your claim and the potential value of your claim with an experienced premise liability lawyer. If you are interested in learning more about the type and amount of compensation that you could be eligible to receive given that your claim is successful, you should seek legal assistance immediately. Our lawyers will aggressively fight for your right to recover the compensation that you and your family are owed for the harm suffered in the incident.

File Your Claim Quickly

All claims are subject to a statute of limitations, which determines the total length of time that claimants have to file their claims. In California, premise liability claims are subject to a two-year statute of limitations. This means that claimants only have a two-year period to file their claims. If they fail to file their claims within the allowed timeframe, they could lose their right to sue for the harm resulting from the incident. Based on the details surrounding the claim, exceptions could apply (which could pause the applicable deadline). To ensure that you have a thorough understanding of the time that you have to file your claim, do not hesitate to seek legal assistance with the experts at our firm at your earliest convenience.
