Greeley Store and Restaurant Fall Lawyers for Invitee Injury Claims
McCormick & Murphy are Greeley store and restaurant fall lawyers for people hurt in a fall inside a store or restaurant. We file in Weld County Combined Courts.
When you shop or eat out in Greeley, whether along 10th Street, near 47th Avenue, or at a business off U.S. Highway 34, you're generally considered an invitee on that property. That status matters because it sets a higher standard: the owner has to address hazards they actually knew about, and also hazards they should have discovered through reasonable care.
Spill and fall claims inside stores and restaurants almost always come down to a handful of questions. How did the spill or hazard get on the floor in the first place? How long had it been there before you fell? Did anyone put out a warning, and did the business have any regular practice of checking its floors and walkways for hazards like this?
We don't assume the answers before we look at the facts. A wet-floor sign doesn't automatically end a claim, and the lack of one doesn't automatically win it either. What matters is what the evidence shows about notice and about whether the business acted reasonably given the circumstances.
Preserving Footage, Incident Reports, and Floor Logs Before They Disappear
Surveillance footage from inside a Greeley store or restaurant can be some of the strongest evidence in these cases, showing when a spill happened, whether employees walked past it, and how long it sat before you fell. Incident reports filled out by staff, along with any cleanup or inspection logs the business keeps, can also help establish what the business knew and when.
This kind of evidence tends to disappear quickly. Footage gets overwritten, logs get discarded, and memories fade. That's why we move fast to send preservation letters and request records before they're gone, whether the location is near Evans, Windsor, or elsewhere in the Greeley area.
- Report the fall to a manager and ask for an incident report
- Take photos of the spill, floor condition, and any warning signs nearby
- Get names and contact information for any witnesses
- Keep the shoes and clothing you were wearing
- Get medical care and follow up on your treatment

Proof, Warning Signs, and Status Questions After a Store or Restaurant Fall
Do I need Greeley store and restaurant fall lawyers after an injury?
Call Greeley store and restaurant fall lawyers when you were hurt, fault is disputed, or an insurer delays, denies, or offers less than the medical bills. The nearest office is in Denver, CO.
I fell in a Greeley restaurant but didn't see what caused it. Do I still have a claim?
You may still have a claim. We look at surveillance footage, incident reports, and witness statements to figure out what caused the fall and whether the business knew or should have known about it.
Does a wet-floor sign mean I can't file a claim?
No. A warning sign is one factor, but it doesn't automatically end a claim. We look at whether the warning was adequate, where it was placed, and how the hazard developed in the first place.
What if there's no wet-floor sign at all?
The absence of a sign doesn't automatically prove the business is liable either. We still need to show the business knew or should have known about the hazard and failed to address it reasonably.
How important is surveillance video in these cases?
It can be very important. Video can show how long a spill was on the floor, whether staff walked past it, and what happened when you fell. That's why we act quickly to request and preserve it.
