Slip and Fall Injury at Walmart
How to Sue Walmart in case of an slip and fall Injury
Slip and fall accidents are among the most common causes of injuries inside Walmart stores. Every day, customers across the United States are hurt after slipping on wet floors, spilled products, or poorly maintained walkways. These incidents may appear minor, but their consequences can be life-changing. Victims often suffer broken bones, back pain, head trauma, or even permanent disability.
If you were injured in a slip and fall accident inside a Walmart, you are not alone — and you have legal rights. Attorney Jason Chalik represents individuals who have been injured against Walmart, helping victims pursue justice and fair compensation when corporate negligence leads to serious harm.
Why Slip and Fall Accidents Happen in Walmart Stores
Walmart’s vast size and heavy daily foot traffic make its stores especially prone to spills, leaks, and unsafe walking conditions. Despite this, Walmart has a legal duty under premises liability law to inspect floors regularly and to remove hazards as soon as they appear. When Walmart fails to uphold this duty, innocent shoppers pay the price.
Common causes of slip and fall accidents inside Walmart include:
- Wet floors caused by spills, leaks, or recent cleaning
- Rainwater or tracked-in moisture near entrances and exits
- Food or produce dropped in grocery or deli aisles
- Waxed or polished floors without proper warning signs
- Uneven tiles, cracks, or loose floor mats
- Poor lighting that hides floor hazards
- Cords, debris, or unattended baskets blocking aisles
- Leaking coolers, refrigerators, or freezer units
Many of these hazards are easily preventable with routine maintenance and safety protocols. Walmart’s employees are supposed to perform hourly “safety sweeps” to identify and clean up dangers, but in many stores these inspections are inconsistent, rushed, or ignored entirely. In those cases, the responsibility for your injuries falls directly on Walmart.
What You Can Do After a Slip and Fall at Walmart
If you were injured in a Walmart slip and fall, take these steps to protect yourself and your potential claim:
- Report the incident to a store manager immediately and ask for a written report.
- Take clear photos or video of the hazard that caused your fall and your injuries.
- Get contact information from any witnesses who saw what happened.
- Seek medical attention right away, even if your injuries seem minor.
- Do not give a recorded statement to Walmart or its Claims Management, Inc. (CMI) division before consulting a lawyer.
Evidence such as security footage, spill logs, and employee reports can disappear quickly. Hiring an attorney ensures that these materials are preserved and used to strengthen your case.
Why You Need Attorney Jason Chalik
Walmart’s internal claims team is trained to protect the company, not you. Their goal is to close your claim quickly and cheaply, often before you understand the full extent of your injuries. Without experienced legal representation, victims often accept low settlements that fail to cover ongoing medical care or lost income.

He has built a proven system to investigate store negligence, recover video evidence, and hold Walmart accountable for unsafe conditions. His team fights for every dollar you deserve — including pain and suffering, rehabilitation costs, and future care.

Walmart’s Legal Responsibility to Customers
Under premises liability law, Walmart must keep its stores in a reasonably safe condition for customers. This means:
- Conducting regular inspections
- Cleaning spills immediately
- Marking hazards clearly with warning cones or signs
- Repairing broken flooring or damaged equipment promptly
- Training employees on safety protocols
When Walmart fails to take these steps and someone is injured, the company can be held legally responsible for resulting damages.
Attorney Jason Chalik has spent over two decades representing injury victims against Walmart and other large corporations. He understands how to prove that Walmart’s employees or management failed to maintain safe conditions — evidence that can make the difference between a denied claim and a full recovery.
How Walmart Handles Slip and Fall Claims
If you report your accident to Walmart management, the store will likely refer your case to Claims Management, Inc. (CMI) — Walmart’s in-house insurance division. This company is part of Walmart’s corporate system, and its primary purpose is to minimise the amount Walmart pays in claims.
A CMI adjuster may contact you soon after your fall. They often sound polite and concerned, but their questions are designed to collect information that weakens your case. They may ask you to:
- Provide a recorded statement
- Sign medical release forms
- Accept a quick settlement before your treatment is complete
Never agree to any of these requests before consulting an attorney. Once you provide information or sign paperwork, Walmart’s team can use it to reduce or deny your compensation.
Attorney Jason Chalik and his legal team handle all communication with Walmart and CMI on your behalf. They gather surveillance footage, store maintenance logs, and witness statements to prove that Walmart’s negligence directly caused your slip and fall injury.
Common Injuries Caused by Walmart Slip and Fall Accidents
Slip and fall injuries can range from mild sprains to life-changing trauma. Victims frequently experience:
- Broken bones and fractures
- Neck and back injuries
- Herniated or bulging discs
- Head injuries and concussions
- Spinal cord damage
- Knee, shoulder, or wrist injuries from breaking a fall
- Permanent nerve damage
- Chronic pain and reduced mobility
Some of these injuries may require surgery, long-term rehabilitation, or result in permanent disability. For many victims, the pain, stress, and financial burden can last for years after the incident. That is why working with an experienced slip and fall lawyer is critical to securing the full compensation you deserve.

What To Do Immediately After a Slip and Fall Accident
If you have been injured inside a Walmart, the steps you take right away can have a major impact on your claim. Follow these steps:
Seek medical help immediately. Even minor pain could signal a serious injury.
Report the accident to Walmart management and request a written incident report.
Take photos and videos of the area, including the hazard that caused your fall.
Get contact information from witnesses who saw the incident or the hazard beforehand.
Keep your shoes and clothing in their post-accident condition as evidence.
Do not give statements or sign documents from Walmart’s claims department.
Contact Attorney Jason Chalik to protect your rights and start building your case.
The sooner you act, the stronger your case will be. Walmart’s employees will begin their own internal report immediately, and evidence such as security footage can be lost within days.
The Hidden Tactics Walmart Uses
Walmart’s claims team is trained to protect the corporation. Their strategies often include:
Offering small settlements before medical bills are final
Arguing that the hazard “appeared too recently” for employees to fix it
Claiming that the victim was not paying attention
Suggesting that the floor was dry when it was not
Erasing or withholding surveillance footage
These tactics can be frustrating and intimidating, but you do not have to deal with them alone. Attorney Jason Chalik has handled many Walmart slip and fall cases and knows how to expose these corporate defences with evidence and expert testimony.
Proving Walmart’s Negligence
Winning a slip and fall case against Walmart requires showing that:
A dangerous condition existed inside the store.
Walmart knew or should have known about the condition.
Walmart failed to fix or warn customers about it.
You were injured as a direct result of that negligence.
This evidence may include witness statements, maintenance records, store inspection schedules, and medical reports linking your injuries to the fall. Jason Chalik’s legal team knows exactly what documentation to demand and how to hold Walmart accountable.
What Compensation Can Include
If Walmart’s negligence caused your fall, you may be entitled to recover:
Emergency and ongoing medical expenses
Physical therapy and rehabilitation costs
Prescription medications
Lost wages and loss of earning potential
Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
Long-term or permanent disability
Loss of quality of life
Slip and fall injuries can affect more than your body. They can affect your independence, career, and emotional well-being. Jason Chalik fights for every form of compensation you are entitled to under the law.
