Common Slip and Fall Injuries at a Walmart gas station

Walmart gas stations are situated in the parking lots of their stores found on 902 St. Lucie W. Blvd and 3045 SW Port St. Lucie Blvd. Their proximity to busy Walmart stores brings a great deal of traffic to the gas station. With so many cars filling up their gas tank every day, it can lead to people getting hurt.

  • Heavy traffic: The large volume of vehicles driving through the parking lot or pulling up to fill their gas tanks put pedestrians walking through the lot in danger of being hit as they walk up to the store.
  • Parking lot obstructions: A driver's view may be blocked by poor sign placement, large delivery trucks, or trees and bushes that haven't been properly groomed. The limited number of parking spots causes many people to park their cars at the pump while they shop inside, creating frustration with other drivers.
  • Dangerous pavement: Hidden curbs, broken pavement, and potholes pose trip and fall hazards to people as they walk through the lot.
  • Slick walking areas: Customers may slip and fall on floors that are slick from spilled drinks, leaking refrigerators, and wet entrances. Even debris, such as receipts or wrappers, can make floors slippery. Cars that leak oil or other fluids may pose a slip and fall risk to patrons as they fill up their gas tanks.
Should you call a Port St. Lucie Accident Lawyer?

It is normal for people to wonder what they should do when they get hurt in an accident. For many of us, we just want to get the stress of being hurt behind us. While there may be a tendency to settle on your own just to get it over with, this can end up costing you.

A large company, like Walmart, hires lawyers to help them keep their costs low when people get hurt on the property. These attorneys may push to get a quick settlement from you. Settling fast may appear to be a great idea, especially if you cannot work or are stressed about paying for your medical care.

But a fast settlement is in their best interest, not yours. By closing your case quickly, they limit how much money they must pay. So, if your injuries are more severe than what doctors expected, or you are out of work longer than expected, you could be financially strapped. And if you were legally entitled to recover more damages than what you received, you could lose out.

When you consult a Port St. Lucie personal injury lawyer, you can determine what rights you have when you have been hurt. They can advise you of what damages you may be entitled to for your injuries, future care, pain and suffering, and lost wages. Should you have a claim, they work on your behalf to complete the paperwork and negotiate a settlement.
