How Rosenbaum Personal Injury Lawyers Can Help After a Target Store Accident in Queens

How Common Are Target Store Accidents?
Since Target does not publish accident data for its stores, it can be difficult to determine just how many accidents happen in its stores each year. However, it is safe to say that these types of accidents happen regularly. With thousands of customers going into these stores every day, a single act of negligence on behalf of the store can easily lead to a devastating accident.
Overview of Target Store Accidents
When you enter a Target store, you are generally considered to be an invitee. This means that you have been invited onto the premises by Target for their business benefit as well as your own benefit.
As an invitee, you are owed the highest duty of care. Target has a legal duty to keep the premises in a reasonably safe condition and to warn you of any known dangers that are not obvious.
Some of the most common causes of accidents in Target stores include:
- Slip and fall accidents
- Falling objects or boxes
- Falling shelves
- Obstructed walkways
- Negligent security
- Lack of warning signs
For instance, imagine you round the corner at the end of an aisle and slip in a puddle of water. However, the water had been on the floor for several hours, and another customer had even informed management of the spill. In this case, Target would likely be liable for your injuries because it had reasonable knowledge of the spill and still failed to clean it up.
What Types of Damages Are Available to Target Store Accident Victims?

How Long Do I Have to File a Lawsuit After a Target Store Accident in New York?
