Fairway Market is a small American grocery chain founded in 1933 by Nathan Glickberg. It is one of the brands owned by the Wakefern Food Corporation. The prime location at Broadway and West 74th Street, on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, is one of four stores throughout the City.

Slip-and-fall accidents happen in Fairway Markets for multiple reasons, including the high volume of customers, which increases the likelihood of spills and other hazards. Hard flooring surfaces, like tile or polished concrete, can become slippery when wet. Even minor spills or tracked-in moisture from outside can create hazardous conditions.

Other common causes include broken or damaged product packaging, which can lead to spills or debris on the floor; Failure to clean up spills promptly or place warning signs in areas where hazards exist; poor lighting, which can make it difficult for customers to see potential risks; and uneven flooring, loose carpeting, or broken tiles, which can create tripping hazards.

Fairway Market Slip and Fall Accident Law

What Should I Do Immediately After a Slip And Fall Accident in a Fairway Market Grocery Store?

If you have been injured in a New York City Fairway Market because of the negligent actions or inaction of the property owner, operator, employees, or another third party, there are steps you can take to help strengthen your personal injury claim.

They include:

  • Report the Incident Immediately

Notify the store management or staff about the accident as soon as possible. Provide details about where and how the incident occurred. Do not make statements that could be interpreted as admitting fault for the accident to the store staff or anyone else. Instead, describe what happened according to the facts. Ask them to document the incident in their accident report log.

  • Document the Scene

Gather evidence from the scene if you can physically do so. Take photos or videos of the hazardous conditions that caused your fall, such as spilled liquids, uneven flooring, or any other relevant hazards. Also, note the exact location within the store where the accident occurred.

If the store has surveillance cameras, request that they preserve the footage of the accident. This can serve as additional evidence to support your claim.

  • Collect Witness Information

Ask for their contact information if there were any witnesses to the accident. Their testimonies could be valuable if you pursue a personal injury claim.

  • Seek Medical Attention

Your health and safety should be your top priority. If you’re injured, seek medical attention right away. Even if you don’t feel seriously injured, having a medical professional evaluate your condition is still a good idea, as some injuries may not be immediately apparent.

  • Keep Records

Keep detailed records of any medical treatment you receive, including doctor’s visits, prescribed medications, and other healthcare-related expenses. Follow your doctor’s recommendations for treatment and recovery. Failure to do so could jeopardize your health and affect your potential personal injury claim.

Also, keep track of any missed workdays or lost wages due to the injury so your financial hardship can be appropriately calculated and included in your personal injury claim.
