Home Depot Accident & Injuries

Home Depot is among the largest home improvement retailers of big-box in the nation. This juggernaut entity operates in the United States over 2000 stores.

Home Depot sells home improvement and construction materials to assist owners of homes in repairing and building on properties.

The retailer provides some of the most vast selections of goods to improve homes at immensely competitive prices.

Due to its enormous square footage, sheer size, filled aisles , and precariously stacked merchandise, Home Depot normally faces claims and lawsuits by customers sustaining catastrophic injuries caused by its negligence.

When shopping inside a Home Depot, customers expect to remain safe from hazards, when entering and exiting the premises from the parking lot.

Business owners, managers, and the property owner are bound legally to maintain the establishment to make sure it remains relatively safe.


They are bound by duty, when hazards appear, to warn customers by placing signs and barricades to keep individuals away from these hazards.

Home Depot can be held liable legally if an unsafe condition results in a customer or employee on the property sustaining injuries.

To win compensation through a lawsuit or successful claim, however, the victim must prove that the condition was unsafe inside or outside the establishment to cause the injuries directly.


To be successful in a personal injury claim against Home Depot, state law stipulates an individual to prove:

The retailer was well aware that he has it his condition existed, but neglected to rectify or correct the dilemma.

Management or employees at Home Depot created a hazardous condition that caused the injury directly.


Home Depot never took required measures to repair the problem or post signs, which indicated the existence of a hazardous condition.

When an individual sustains injuries and the business fails in their abilities to provide a safe environment, the victim in the lawsuit has the lawful right to seek compensation on the laws of premises liability.

The most typical types of sustained injuries which occur to employees and customers at Home Depot centers for home-improvement include the following: injuries caused by falling display merchandise; improper storing and securing overhead items; injuries of slip and fall occurring on unmarked wet or slippery floors; accidents of slip and fall occurring from an accumulation of sawdust on the floor; a failure to maintain clean floors free of debris, loose materials, and spilled liquids; injuries of slip and fall at the entrance of the stores or the parking lot due to icy, slippery, and snowy conditions; and negligence by a forklift operator who is unable or not certified to operate machinery.

Every year, Home Depot centers handle a number of sustained injuries occurring at its stores.

Experienced in lowballing the real value of a lawsuit, the legal department of Home Depot employs claims adjusters with skills, namely when individuals desire to represent themselves.

A number of sustained injured victims will hire an esteemed personal injury attorney because of this.
