Abogado de lesiones de carro de la compra


Shopping cart injuries can happen at any store that has a large amount of shopping carts and a large amount of customers. Many people may not be careful when in the store, and stores themselves may not have safety measures that mitigate the chances of injuries and accidents. Our firm has taken on numerous shopping cart accident claims over the years, and we know the best methods for success in such lawsuits. You can contact the Downtown LA Law Group today to learn more and to get started on your journey to compensation.

Common Locations for Shopping Cart Injuries

There are many places in which you can be hit by a shopping cart, whether inside the store or in the parking lot. The cart could have been pushed by someone and then left unattended while it was rolling. It could have been knocked over or pushed down stairs. It could have been in the middle of an aisle or off to the side so when you turned the corner you hit it without noticing it. Someone could have pushed the cart into you, or you could have been struck from behind by someone not paying attention while he was pushing the cart.

You could suffer various injuries in these situations, such as:

  • Huesos rotos
  • Ankle and knee injuries
  • Hernias discales
  • Conmociones cerebrales

Shopping Cart Automatic Stop Causing Injury

A common cause of shopping cart injuries is the automatic stop systems that these carts typically have. The point of this automatic stop system is normally to prevent the carts from being taken off the premises. However, the system can fail, resulting in the shopping cart automatic brake causing injury. Brakes locking up automatically can be a sign of a defective product. Unfortunately, a defective shopping cart that unexpectedly stops can cause a number of injuries. Some potential injuries include, fractures, knee injuries, ankle/foot injuries, sprains, dislocations, bruises, etc. These are just some of the many injuries that can occur if you walk into the shopping cart that you were pushing after it suddenly stops. Of course, additional injuries can occur if the incident causes you to fall.

Can I file a defective product claim? Yes – a defective shopping cart causing injury is enough grounds to file a product liability claim. Can I sue? Yes, you can sue. That is, you can sue the company that manufactured the defective shopping carts. Your right to sue is based on product liability law. A lawyer that can help you with your claim will need to be able to prove that a defect in design, labeling, or manufacturing existed in the shopping carts and directly contributed to your accident and your injuries.

If you would like to learn more about filing a defective product claim after a shopping cart accident, do not hesitate to contact our experts immediately. Our lawyers are ready to provide you with the representation that you need to sue the party liable for your shopping cart injuries.

Do I have a case if I was hit by a shopping cart?

You can potentially have a personal injury claim on your hands if you were hit by a shopping cart. Many clients often come to us and ask, “Can I sue if a shopping cart hit me?” The causes must be appropriately examined, however.

If you were in a store and someone battered into you with a shopping cart and caused injuries, you could potentially sue that individual for damages. The person may flee, though, which could leave you to sue the store. You can also sue the store if a shopping cart came loose, fell over in an aisle, broke while you were using it, or was moving in the parking lot and hit you while you were walking.

How can I sue for a shopping cart injury?

To sue a store for a shopping cart injury, you will need to prove that you were injured and that the store was negligent. Negligence in premises liability claims can be shown in one of three ways. They are as follows:

  • The property owner caused the hazard with the shopping cart
  • The property owner knew there was a problem involving shopping carts but did nothing to warn customers about the dangers or even tried to fix the issue
  • The property owner was unaware of any issues but reasonably should have been if he had been attentive and careful

Upon determining the cause of negligence, you can move forward and gather all of you evidence. The first step you should take involves going to the doctor for medical treatment. It is important that you do not wait too long to get help, as your injuries may worsen over time. The insurance agent will also doubt your claim if there a large gap. At the hospital, get copies of your medical records, test results, insurance billing papers, doctor’s statements, receipts, and more.

You should take pictures of the store and the scene of the accident to illustrate where you were hurt, and you should also take pictures of the injuries you suffered. Some individuals heal quickly and need to take photos to show the extent of the damages before it’s too late.

You may be able to get video evidence from the store, but it can be hard to do so. The store will not want to hand over security footage if it will potentially incriminate them.

If there were any eyewitnesses who saw the incident happen, you can ask them to provide their testimonies and statements for your claim.

You must file an incident report with the store and alert them to the incident, as well. You can take down the contact information of the manager and other important details.

Finally, it is in your best interest to hire an expert premises liability attorney who can take on your claim for you. You might have no legal experience, which can work against you. You won’t be skilled enough to negotiate a deal and you won’t know the ins and outs of the law. Our firm will work around the clock to win your case while you focus on healing from your injuries.

Compensation from a Shopping Cart Injury Lawsuit

The value of your shopping cart injury lawsuit is determined by the insurance agent handling your claim. He will look at the types of injuries you suffered, the level of impact they had on your life, the impact they had on your career performance and future job opportunities, how severe they were, and how negligent you were in the accident. If you were partially responsible in some way and caused injuries to yourself, the agent will not make as large of an offer. After he has examined all the details of the case, he will come up with a number that you can accept or reject. Most of the time, insurance agents make low offers in an attempt to just get victims to agree so they can move on and so that they do not have to spend an excessive amount of money out of their profits. Our law firm’s goal is to bring you maximum coverage for all of your losses.

We will strive to win you the following:

  • Medical bills for hospitalization, medication and prescription drugs, surgery, physical therapy sessions, future medical treatments, and more
  • Property damage if any of your personal items or belongings needed to be repaired or replaced after the incident
  • Lost income if you could not go to work for a period of time or if you were unable to return to work after treatment due to recovery time or additional necessary medical procedures; we can pursue lost commissions, tips, bonuses, benefits, and more
  • Dolor y sufrimiento por TEPT, ansiedad, miedo, secuelas psicológicas y otros sufrimientos emocionales.

If you wish to sue a store for a shopping cart accident, our attorneys can assist you. You should not be expected to cover these expenses and debts by yourself if you were the victim of an accident and the store was negligent in some way. We aim to win you every penny you deserve and we will not stop negotiating a worthwhile deal until we are satisfied with the results.

Prescripción de las reclamaciones por daños corporales

En California, existe un plazo de prescripción de dos años a partir de la fecha de la lesión para presentar una demanda por lesiones personales. Usted debe tomar medidas dentro de este marco de tiempo o usted será incapaz de recoger cualquier tipo de restitución. El estatuto de limitaciones existe para que las víctimas puedan demandar dentro de un tiempo razonable sin preocuparse de que sus pruebas se pierdan o se corrompan, y para que no se espere que los acusados rindan cuentas durante un tiempo irrazonable después del incidente. Está a su favor emprender acciones legales con celeridad, ya que desea que sus facturas se paguen rápidamente.

Sin embargo, hay algunas formas de ampliar el plazo de prescripción. Si eras menor de 18 años en el momento del siniestro, puedes esperar a cumplir la mayoría de edad para presentar una demanda. No obstante, tus padres o tutores pueden demandar en tu nombre hasta entonces. También puede haber quedado mentalmente incapacitado para demandar o físicamente incapacitado e incapacitado para demandar, lo que puede permitirle esperar hasta que recupere la salud y la conciencia mental antes de emprender acciones. Además, el demandado puede no estar presente en California, lo que retrasaría el cómputo del plazo hasta que regrese al estado.

A menudo, muchas víctimas simplemente desconocen el plazo de prescripción de sus demandas. Puede que no sepan cuándo prescribe la reclamación y, por lo general, esperan demasiado antes de emprender acciones legales. Es importante que hable con un abogado experto en lesiones personales para determinar cuánto tiempo queda en el estatuto de limitaciones para su reclamo. Con gusto lo representaremos, reuniremos sus pruebas, redactaremos su carta de demanda de indemnización y presentaremos su demanda por usted dentro del plazo.

Opinión de un cliente de DTLA

"¡Farid fue genial! Mi novio y yo lo contratamos en abril de 2017, ya que fuimos golpeados por detrás en la I101 . Nuestro coche fue total y estábamos gravemente heridos. Por recomendación de un familiar, nos arriesgamos y nos pusimos en contacto con Farid para que nos ayudara con el proceso. Después de todo el calvario, lo último que queríamos hacer era lidiar con las compañías de seguros."
