Florida Mall Injury Accident Lawyer

Whether looking for a special gift or just want to spend the day shopping, you can find many indoor and outdoor malls in Florida. Shopping malls often have large retail stores, boutiques, and specialty shops. Hungry shoppers can grab ice cream or popcorn at the nearest kiosk or settle for a bite at the food court. For those shoppers who crave a little spoiling, most malls have hair salons and spas.

Sometimes spending the day at the mall is not always what it is cracked up to be. Slips, falls, car crashes, and criminal activity can make shopping malls dangerous.

Hurt Shopping at a Florida Mall?

Accidents may be more common than you might think because of the substantial number of people who visit malls every day. One of the most frequent shopping mall accidents is slips and falls.

  • Spilled drinks on common sidewalks, in shops, or the food court can cause people to slip and fall if not cleaned up quickly.
  • Shoppers can slip, trip, and fall when walking into stores with diverse flooring types or uneven surfaces.
  • Leaves and other debris lying on outside sidewalks can become slippery when it rains outside.
  • Leaking toilets or sinks in the bathroom can cause someone to slip and fall.

Yet slips and falls aren’t the only hazards shoppers face at the mall. Other ways shoppers get hurt include:

Falling or top-heavy displays: Malls often display holiday decorations or merchandise throughout the public areas. Displays that are too heavy or not properly built can tip over and hit a customer.

Escalators: An escalator that stops suddenly could cause people to fall down the stairs. Shoppers could be injured if their shoelaces, shoes, or other clothing items get caught in the escalator grooves or moving handrails. When moving parts are not properly maintained, it could cause injury.

Elevators: Shoppers may be hurt exiting when the elevator doesn’t open evenly with the floor. Elevators not properly serviced could cause injury if they stop suddenly or fall.

Parking lots: The large volume of cars traveling through the parking lot can be dangerous for people walking to and from the mall. Tight parking spaces make it difficult for drivers to see pedestrians walking behind their vehicles while backing out. Parking lots with overgrown trees, bushes, or poorly placed signs can block a driver’s view of pedestrians or other vehicles.

Criminal activity: Parking lots or garages that are dim or do not have proper security can lead to criminal activity.

Why Call a Florida Shopping Mall Accident Law Firm?

Shopping mall owners and managers are responsible for keeping their property safe for visitors. When the owner or manager fails to provide safe premises, and you get hurt, they could be negligent.

However, shopping mall accidents can be complicated. The shopping mall owner may use an outside management company to oversee its daily operations. The stores inside the mall may be owned and managed by different people. Depending on where the accident occurred, multiple parties could be at fault.

Talking to the best Florida shopping mall accident lawyer can be crucial to your case. A Florida accident lawyer can help identify responsible parties and pursue compensation that you could be eligible for.
