Dairy Queen Slip and Fall Attorney

Slippery Surfaces Cause Falls and Personal Injuries

Stores that sell ice cream and ice cream treats are always a crowd favorite. These stores are open year-round and cater to children, adolescents, adults and the elderly. Everyone loves the taste of ice cream! But did you know that if you look down at the floor of an ice cream shop, it might not be the most sanitary. It might have debris and condiments, syrup and sprinkles, which are left around to be slipped on. Even though the customers are careless sometimes with spilling slippery food items on the floor, it is the responsibility of the store managers to clean up the floor on a regular basis, to keep it sanitary and free from a slipping hazard.

If you have been to a Dairy Queen store, you may enjoy buying and tasting the different types of ice cream products sold in this establishment. The problem is that the items that are sold to the customers often end up on the floor, creating slipping hazards. The condiments and ice creams sold at Dairy Queen that can become a serious slipping and falling hazard include:

• Microwaved brownies
• Syrup for ice cream
• Sprinkles
• Chocolate and syrups for milkshakes

Carpet Snags and Bunched Mats Can Make Customers Fall Down at Dairy Queen

When walking at a Dairy Queen it is possible that you can fall down on a bunched carpet or mat. There are often mats on the floor, and these mats are meant to catch debris that is brought in from the outside. When there is inclement weather, the rain or a storm can have water on the floor.

If you are walking into a Dairy Queen and trip on a bunched carpet, it will be an unexpected hazard. You will no doubt be pushed forward and fall flat on the floor. You might even twist and fall sideways at an awkward angle, really damaging a tendon, leg muscle or even your knee. If this happens, you may need emergency medical attention and will receive a big bill for these emergency services. It is not fair for you to have to shoulder these bills when you did not cause the hazard you tripped and slipped on. For that reason, you need to bring an action against the owner of the franchise Dairy Queen, and get a recovery reimbursement for your personal injuries.
