Q: I was in a store this weekend. I slipped and fell on unseen water in front of me with the cart I was pushing.
I jumped up from fear, while shopping with my family. But because of the pain I could not continue to shop and went to the hospital. I am bruised and very sore and I need assistance.
A:
A North Carolina attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for a week. You could consult with an attorney who could investigate the accident and evaluate your injuries. If they determine that your injuries arose as a result of the store's negligence, they could advise you about your legal rights and your options. Most attorneys who handle such cases offer free initial consults. Good luck
