Thousands of customers pass through Illinois Costco stores weekly. They purchase items in bulk from Costco’s warehouse-like store. Costco’s cavernous stores are filled with potential dangers. Like all other stores in Illinois, Costco must protect its customers from injury. That means the store must take precautions to guard against patrons slipping and falling on liquids that have slipped on the floor or tripping over a display or another hazard controlled by the store. Furthermore, Costco has the responsibility to inspect its premises including the parking areas, to make sure no dangers are lurking about that could injure an innocent customer.
Your Rights After a Slip and Fall at Costco
If you sustained an injury in a slip-and-fall incident at Costco in Illinois, you have rights. To protect your valuable rights, you must consult with a knowledgeable, successful, and aggressive Illinois slip-and-fall attorney. Costco has a significant incentive to fight claims filed against it. Costco would be susceptible to many false claims if it garnered a reputation as a company that would settle easily and quickly with anyone who files a complaint against it. Therefore, you need a lawyer who understands how to build a successful case for you.
