Car Wash Broken Chair Attorney

After suffering a fall that was possibly embarrassing and physically harmful, you could be too upset to call more attention to the event by speaking to witnesses, the staff at the car wash, or the manager. You assume that you were careless in some way and caused the accident yourself. However, that is not typically the case if you were simply sitting on a chair or bench provided at a car wash.

Victims of these injury incidents should know that the blame for a broken chair accident often lies with the staff at the place of business, the owner of the property, or the manufacturer or distributor of the damaged or broken chair or bench. The car wash broken chair attorneys at DTLA Law Group have decades of combined experience in sorting out the details of which party was negligent and should be held accountable for the harm you sustained because the chair or bench you sat on at a car wash was broken.

Duty of care is part of premises liability laws, which were created to ensure the safety of guests on public or private property. Under the guidelines of duty of care, the property owner and their staff are obligated to provide a basic level of care to ensure the safety of others when on the property. The required care is explained in simple terms as equal to or greater than what the average prudent person would provide.

For example, if you found a broken chair in your home, you would repair it or remove it to prevent anyone from suffering injuries because they tried unknowingly to sit in a broken chair. If the chair or bench could not be immediately repaired or replaced, you would place a warning sign or tell guests that the chair was broken and should not be used. These actions are considered what anyone would do in a similar situation. In addition, they are what is expected of the staff at the car wash. They should inspect the area for safety issues such as a damaged or broken chair or bench. If there is such an issue, they must take action swiftly to ensure the safety of others at the car wash.

When inspections and repairs are not made promptly, the staff is said to be negligent in its duty of care. Furthermore, if that negligence is later found to have caused or contributed to a patron’s injuries, the car wash could be financially liable for the losses and expenses incurred by the victim. Reach out to DTLA Law Group to speak with a car wash broken chair attorney to learn more about how you could be able to sue the car wash for your expenses and losses.

A short fall of a foot or two is not going to result in significant harm. However, that is not always the case. It is not always the distance of the fall that causes the most damage to the victim. Many car wash broken chair victims suffer serious injuries, including:

• Fractures or broken bones because they were trying to break their fall and reached out with a hand, arm, or foot to catch themselves
• Damage to the soft connective tissue of joints due to awkward impact trying to minimize the damage of the sudden and unexpected fall
• Severe lacerations or puncture wounds from the debris of the broken chair
• Back, neck, or spinal cord damage due to the twisting nature of many shortfalls and sudden impact with the ground or walls
• Head injuries ranging from a concussion or skull fracture to a traumatic brain injury due to sudden impact
• Skin abrasions and contusions

Even if you think that the injuries you suffered are minor or you were unharmed, you must seek a medical evaluation to ensure you have no harm that is masked by shock or the shame of the accident. It is likely that as you move past the adrenaline phase of the incident, you will feel more aches and pain due to your injuries. Having the injuries documented by a medical professional and properly treated immediately after the injury incident is vital to your best potential recovery and could be beneficial if you need to file a lawsuit to seek compensation for the harm you suffered.

The immediate severity of your injuries will dictate how much information you can gather at the scene of the accident. If you need emergency medical care, remain still, call 911, or ask a witness to call for you. If your injuries are less severe, ask all witnesses of the accident to provide their contact information. Also, take pictures of the broken chair or bench and any visible injuries you sustained. If possible, get a clear picture of the brand and model of the chair to check for any issues or recalls on the item. Inform the car wash staff of the accident and speak to the manager if they are available. Then, seek medical care and ask that all your injuries be documented for future use if you need to take legal action against the car wash for the harm and losses you suffered.

The compensation amount for any lawsuit is determined by compiling and evaluating all allowable expenses and losses suffered by the victim. You will work with your DTLA Law Group car wash broken chair attorney to ensure you are fully and fairly compensated for the expenses created by your car wash broken chair injuries. The items that are often included in these cases are:

• All current and projected future medical expenses to treat the injuries from the broken chair incident
• The replacement value of any personal property that was damaged or destroyed in the incident
• Your lost wages if you were unable to work your normal job because of your injuries and for any work time missed to attend medical appointments or treatment related to the accident injuries you sustained
• All legal costs for your lawsuit

As a personal injury victim, you have two years from the date of the injury to file a claim with the court. If the case is not filed within that time, you will lose the right to seek justice and compensation by filing a lawsuit against the car wash or any other negligent party.
