Re: slip,fall

It depends why you fell. If you tripped over your shoelaces, then the store has no fault. If you tripped on something that might have been on the floor for a long time, then you could have a claim. You should contact an attorney in your area if the latter is true. In the meantime, immediately see a doctor to examine and treat your knees and maybe your lower back. Any delay in treating would hurt your potential legal case.

Re: slip,fall

I would suggest you see a doctor to determine the extent of your injuries and then speak with an attorney concerning the circumstance that led you to fall. Costco may be liable and you may have a claim, depending upon the facts. If you would like me to evaluate your case with no obligation or charge, feel free to contact me.
