Despite some people’s first instinct of falling merchandise being clothing from a top shelf, falling merchandise can be heavyweight objects causing serious injury to consumers and bystanders alike. It is the duty of the store and its property owner to ensure the safety of its consumers and prevent this type of accident from occurring. If you or a loved one has been injured due to falling merchandise on another’s property, you may consider filing a premises liability lawsuit against the property owner.
Premises liability laws say that if you are injured on someone else’s property, you have the right to sue them, since they have a duty to its consumers and visitors to ensure their safety. When they fail to do so, they can be found liable. If you suffer injuries from falling merchandise, you may sue the property owner where the accident occurred.
Falling merchandise becomes an issue when items on high shelves are precariously placed, unlabeled, defective, unsecured, or unnecessarily accessible to the public. and Falling merchandise can just be clothing falling from above, but it can also be very heavy and dangerous items, such as televisions, computers, heavy boxes of products, bicycles, and more. These can cause serious injuries including concussions, traumatic brain injury, bruises, cuts, and scrapes. You can be compensated for the losses that you suffered from this accident, including medical expenses and lost wages.
