Erewhon is known for its upscale grocery selection, but accidents can happen anywhere, even in well-maintained stores. If you slip and fall at an Erewhon location, it’s important to take the right steps to protect your health and legal rights. Erewhon has a responsibility to keep its premises safe for customers, but spills, slippery floors, or misplaced items can still lead to dangerous situations. Here’s what you should do if you suffer a slip and fall at Erewhon.

Steps to Take Immediately After Your Slip and Fall

  • Seek Medical Care
    • Your well-being is the most important consideration. Seek immediate medical attention, even if you think your injuries are minor. Some injuries may become apparent only hours or days later. Documentation of your injuries by a healthcare provider is crucial for any future legal claim.
  • Notify Erewhon Staff
    • Report your fall to a store manager or employee immediately. Request that they document the incident, and ask for a copy of the report. Be sure to include details about what caused your fall, such as spilled liquids or other hazards.
  • Collect Evidence
    • Take photos or videos of the area where the accident occurred. Document any hazardous conditions, such as wet floors, leaks, or uneven surfaces. If there were any witnesses, collect their contact information.
  • Be Cautious with Statements
    • When speaking with Erewhon employees, stick to the basic facts. Avoid discussing fault or the extent of your injuries until you’ve spoken with an attorney. Anything you say could be used against you later.
  • Consult a Personal Injury Attorney
    • Contact Golden Coast Trial Attorneys, PC, for immediate legal assistance. Our experienced team will review the circumstances of your fall, gather evidence, and build a strong case to pursue the compensation you deserve.
