What Should I Do Immediately After Being Hurt in a Store Like Kroger?

If you’re injured in a store, every step you take afterward can affect your case. Here’s what to do — and what not to do:

Do:

  1. Report the incident to store management immediately. Ask for an incident report.
  2. Take photos of the scene — the spill, the lighting, the area where you fell.
  3. Get witness contact information.
  4. Seek medical treatment right away, even if injuries seem minor.
  5. Call a lawyer as soon as possible. Stores often erase surveillance footage within days.

Don’t:

  • Don’t sign anything or give recorded statements to the store or its insurer.
  • Don’t downplay your injuries or “walk it off.”

The sooner you contact an attorney, the better we can preserve evidence and protect your rights.
