Hurt in a Retail Store Accident? Our NYC Firm is Here to Help.

Posted on by Law Offices of Richard M. Kenny

Were you recently injured in a retail store accident because of unsafe property conditions? If so, you’re most likely now seeking financial compensation. Our firm is here to help. Please continue reading and reach out to our experienced Bronx slip and fall lawyer to learn more about retail store accidents, what to do after one, and how we can guide you through the personal injury claims process ahead.

What to Do After a Retail Store Accident

If you’ve been hurt in a retail store, you should do everything in your power to document exactly how the accident happened. Often retail store accidents occur because of unsafe property conditions, which are typically a result of retail store staff or ownership failing to ensure patrons’ safety. Some of the most common causes of retail store accidents include spills in aisles, runaway shopping carts, merchandise falling from shelves onto customers, poorly-placed merchandise displays, and more. After sustaining an injury in a retail store accident, you should do your best to document the circumstances of the accident. This can include taking pictures of the unsafe retail store conditions, calling emergency medical services to the scene, asking witnesses for their contact information, and retaining the services of a competent Bronx personal injury attorney who can help you fight for the financial compensation you deserve and need to get back on your feet again.

Bringing Your Claim Within the Statute of Limitations

The statute of limitations for most personal injury claims in New York State is three years. This means that people who’ve been hurt because of unsafe property conditions have three years to bring their personal injury claim. That said, it’s always best to take action sooner, rather than later. The Law Office of Richard M. Kenny is prepared to fight for you today. All you need to do is pick up the phone and give us a call so we can get started working on your case.
