How Do Injuries Happen In Brooklyn Target Stores?

According to the National Law Review, big box stores—including Target—are the sites of numerous serious injuries to customers each year. We rarely consider Target a perilous environment, yet stacks of heavy boxes and products tower over our heads, customers carry coffee or soda as they shop, and the aisles are often cluttered with shoppers, children, shopping carts, displays, and fallen merchandise. Common causes of Target store injuries include the following:

  • Slip-and-fall accidents due to tracked-in rain or snow, spilled beverages, and floor cleaning products
  • Trip-and-fall injuries due to cluttered floors or fallen debris
  • Falling merchandise injuries
  • Collapsing shelves
  • Shopping cart injuries
  • Parking lot injuries
  • Escalator accidents

When an injury happens in a Target store, it’s not always a minor embarrassment or inconvenience. Some injuries have painful and debilitating long-term impacts on the injury victim and their family. Fortunately, New York has robust protections in place for injury victims who suffer physical and financial harm due to a commercial business owner’s or manager’s negligence.

What Types of Injuries Occur in Target Store Accidents In Brooklyn?

Falls, falling objects, and parking lot accidents cause many types of injuries with impacts ranging from temporary pain and a single emergency room bill, to lifelong disability or even wrongful death. Target store injury claims in Brooklyn and elsewhere reveal injuries such as the following:

  • Head injuries and traumatic brain injuries
  • Back injuries
  • Neck injuries
  • Broken bones
  • Soft-tissue injuries like sprains, strains, tendon injuries, and torn ligaments
  • Lacerations
  • Contusions
  • Abrasions
  • Burns
  • Crush injuries
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Traumatic limb loss

An injury victim harmed in a Target store accident in Brooklyn has a right to seek compensation for their injury-related damages from Target — a Brooklyn slip and fall lawyer will fight for your justice.

What Types of Damages Can I Recover In a Target Store Injury Claim In Brooklyn?

The pain and trauma of the injury itself are sometimes just the beginning of the consequences. Medical bills may pile up at the same time that the injury prevents a prompt return to the workplace. These consequences of a Target store injury in Brooklyn become the damages in an injury claim against Target. A successful claim recovers damages such as the following:

  • Medical expenses
  • Future injury-related medical costs
  • Lost earnings
  • Future income loss or diminished earning capacity
  • Compensation for pain and suffering

If an injury is catastrophic, a Target store injury victim may recover additional compensation for specific damages such as disfigurement, the loss of one of the senses, or loss of enjoyment of life due to disability. If a loved one dies from injuries suffered in a Brooklyn Target store, a wrongful death claim could bring compensation to a close family member.

Store owners and managers have a legal duty to regularly inspect, maintain, repair, and otherwise promptly address hazards on their property. When they breach this duty of care, they are liable for the damages to an injury victim.

How Can a Target Store Injury Lawyer In Brooklyn Help My Case?

Target is a powerful company with attorneys who defend the store’s profits, including during store liability cases. They may also offer fast settlement offers for far less than the full value of a claim.

Instead of leaving your claim in the hands of those ready to protect their profits at your expense, call The Law Offices of Jay S. Knispel at (212) 564-2800 or contact us online for assertive legal representation by an attorney who prioritizes your best interests throughout the process of your Target store injury claim.
