Step One: Seek immediate medical attention.
Your health is our utmost priority. Even if your injuries appear small, it is crucial to request immediate assistance. This not only protects your safety, but it also creates a record of your injuries, which can be useful when building a solid case.
Step Two: Document the incident.
Preserving evidence of your accident is critical. Take photos or videos of the incident scene. Take note of any risks, such as wet floors, debris, or inadequate signs. Collect contact information of any and all witnesses who observed the incident occur.
Step Three: Report the incident.
Inform Home Depot’s employees and management about the accident. Make sure that an incident report is filed and request a copy for your records. This report can be used as critical documentation in your case.
Step Four: Preserve Evidence and Demand Video
Video evidence from Home Depot’s surveillance cameras can be critical in determining responsibility. Act swiftly and send a formal written request to Home Depot’s corporate office requesting the preservation of all video footage from your accident. Inform them that you are represented by Kash Legal Group and emphasize the legal implications of evidence spoliation.
