Can I sue Walmart for slipping?
Yes, you can sue Walmart for slipping if you are injured and the store or an employee was responsible for your accident. To be eligible for compensation, you’ll have to prove that your injuries were caused by Walmart’s negligence. Property owners have a legal duty to keep their premises in a reasonably safe condition, and if Walmart failed to maintain its premises safely they can be held liable. This is called “premises liability”

The theory of premises liability does not hold Walmart responsible for every injury that occurs in a store, just the accidents that are caused by their negligence. A property owner is considered negligent if they do not correct an unsafe condition they knew of or reasonably should have known about. You can argue that the owner should have recognized and repaired the dangerous condition, should have warned of the dangerous condition, or that the owner or an employee created the dangerous condition and failed to eliminate it.

For example, if there is a liquid on the floor and you slip and fall on it, you may be able to sue Walmart if the employees had sufficient opportunity to clean up the spill but did not do so. These are difficult cases to prove, but an experienced premises liability lawyer can assess the facts and damages and determine whether you have a good case or not.

How much should I settle for in a slip and fall case?
Since every slip and fall claim involves a unique set of circumstances that can affect the settlement value of your case, there is no specific amount that you should settle for. Your slip and fall attorney can help you decide if a settlement offer is a good one, but it should at least reimburse you for your medical expenses and other damages caused by the injury.

Some factors that can impact your case’s settlement value include:

The facts about how the incident occured
The severity and type of injuries you suffered
The cost of your medical bills
Any lost wages
The pain your injuries caused
Any permanent effects of your injuries
The impact of your injuries on your everyday life
The medical evidence supporting your injuries
The intensity and duration of your medical treatment and recovery
The skill and reputation of your lawyer
