Legal Question in Personal Injury in Illinois

Re: Shopping Cart

It is entirely possible if the manner in which they check receipts at the door is negligent or creates a danger to cutomers. The individual that struck you would be the first person I would consider being liable since he is the one who actually struck you. However, this is not to say the store would not be liable. Please call my office or email to provide further details.

Re: Shopping Cart

You may have a cause of action against the Store if they have created a dangerous condition leading to the injury. Of course the person who was pushing the cart would be the first one to look to for liability and the Store would be the second one responsible for having facilitated the advent of the injury.

Don't let the store fool or bully you in thinking that they are not at fault. Investigate the matter with a competent attorney before just taking a NO for an answer.

Re: Shopping Cart

A business is ordinarily not liable for te negligence of its customers in causing injuy to another.

Re: Shopping Cart

Unless there was a dangerous condition that led to the accident, they are not liable. This is hard to prove. However, you do have a cause of action against the other person.
