How much can i get in a civil law suit against target?

Question

I was in target the other day and while passing through the game isle i just happen to step in a pile of water and fell. I felt so embarrassed with all the people looking at me, i am going to sue target for not cleaning up the mess and me walking into it. What's the max can i get for a civil lawsuit? I want to sue for a million dollars.

Answer 1

You were not injured just embarrassed and you want $1 million.  You are I gather a sighted individual who did not watch where you were going and stepped in water.   Therefore you did not exercise your own duty of caution.    No wonder prices are high.  I have no idea how much you can get or even if you can find a lawyer who would take such a case but I can tell you what you would get if it were up to me. You would get to pay the court costs and pay Target's lawyers costs and some penalty for filing a frivolous lawsuit.

In case you are wondering neither I nor anyone I know works for Target.

Answer 2

u need to talk to a lawyer to see what you might be able to get...i can assure you it wont be a million dollars....i know someone who fell at walmart, and with no permanent injuries, no surgeries, they were awarded $3k and that was BEFORE the lawyer took his cut
