Stores and restaurants invite heavy foot traffic and must keep aisles and walkways reasonably safe. When inspection systems break down—or hazards aren’t cleaned or warned about—customers can suffer fractures, shoulder and knee injuries, spinal harm, and concussions. We help clients in Denver, Aurora, Boulder, and statewide Colorado prove what happened, why it was preventable, and how it changed their lives.
Retail and food environments create predictable risks. We examine whether the business had reasonable policies—and whether employees followed them on the floor.
Written policies don’t help if they aren’t implemented. We compare corporate standards to what happened at the time of your fall using objective records and video.
Servers and customers navigate tight spaces with food and liquids—control measures must match the pace of service.
Large retailers manage vast areas and constant restocking, requiring robust hazard control. We look for patterns showing the store should have anticipated and addressed risks.
Businesses must anticipate weather‑related moisture and address it with mats, inspections, and timely mopping.
How management responds after a fall often reveals whether safety systems were in place.
We send preservation letters immediately to secure video, logs, and equipment records that stores may otherwise overwrite within days.
Retail defendants commonly downplay injuries. We use consistent medical documentation and third‑party corroboration to demonstrate real‑world impact.
Insurers argue distraction, footwear, or “open and obvious” hazards. We counter with objective testing and context.
A few quick steps help protect your health and claim.
Compensation should reflect both medical and human losses. You may claim medical expenses (past and future), lost wages and earning capacity, out‑of‑pocket costs, and, when appropriate, household services and accommodations. Colorado law also allows recovery for pain, suffering, and loss of enjoyment of life. Comparative negligence, if any, can reduce recovery but does not necessarily bar it.
We handle store and restaurant fall cases across Denver, Aurora, Lakewood, Boulder, and throughout Colorado—from neighborhood shops to national chains. Whether your fall happened in a grocery store, big‑box retailer, café, or bar, we’re equipped to secure the evidence and prove your claim.
With more than three decades of Colorado premises liability experience, we know how retailers operate and where safety systems break down. We act quickly to preserve time‑sensitive video and logs, engage qualified experts, and present your medical story in a way insurers respect and juries understand.
