Is Lowes Liable for Your Accident?

The short answer to that question is yes; Lowes is liable for your accident. Lowes’ liability is based on premise liability. Under premise liability, stores are liable for all harm suffered in their premises. A store premises consists of everything inside the store, sidewalks surrounding the store, and, often, parking lots designed for customer use. What is Lowe’s duty to you and other customers? The store—its managers and other employees—must do everything within their reach that customers are not harmed while on the premises. In other words, they must constantly inspect, identify, and address hazards to ensure that their customers are not at risk of suffering accidents and injuries. Consider one of the most common slip hazards—a wet floor. If the hazard was addressed with a “wet floor” sign but the customer ignored the sign and fell, the store could still have some liability. Regardless of the situation, you must contact an attorney with experience in Lowes injury cases to discuss whether you can benefit from pursuing a slip and fall claim against Lowe’s home improvement store.
