>O\u2019Malley Tunstall PC: Un bufete de abogados especializado en lesiones personales de Carolina del Norte<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"why-people-fall-at-the-grocery-store\"><\/span>\u00bfPor qu\u00e9 la gente se cae en el supermercado?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">En un supermercado existen muchos riesgos de ca\u00eddas. Los empleados reabastecen los estantes durante el horario de atenci\u00f3n, las vitrinas refrigeradas sudan y gotean, los sistemas de nebulizaci\u00f3n de los productos frescos mantienen fresca la lechuga y mojadas las baldosas, y miles de clientes pueden transitar por los mismos pasillos todos los d\u00edas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Una tienda que conoce el riesgo y, aun as\u00ed, mantiene un programa de limpieza insuficiente est\u00e1 anteponiendo la comodidad a la seguridad. Si te has lesionado, es fundamental saber qu\u00e9 sab\u00eda o deber\u00eda haber sabido la tienda antes de tu ca\u00edda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"its-not-always-the-wet-floor-you-picture\"><\/span>No siempre es el piso mojado que te imaginas<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">La mayor\u00eda de la gente se imagina un charco junto al mostrador de los l\u00e1cteos cuando piensa en una ca\u00edda en un supermercado, y es cierto que muchos de estos incidentes comienzan ah\u00ed. Sin embargo, los accidentes por ca\u00eddas tambi\u00e9n ocurren en otras partes de la tienda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Una pila de productos enlatados apilados a dos pies por encima del nivel de los ojos, un palete dejado en medio del pasillo durante un reabastecimiento o un expositor de extremo de pasillo que nunca se haya asegurado adecuadamente pueden constituir, cada uno de ellos, un riesgo de ca\u00edda. Cuando la mercanc\u00eda se cae y golpea a un cliente, o una carretilla de mano atropella a alguien en un pasillo lleno de gente, la lesi\u00f3n puede ser grave porque la fuerza proviene de arriba o de una carga en movimiento, en lugar de una ca\u00edda sobre una superficie plana.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"proving-the-store-knew-about-the-hazard\"><\/span>C\u00f3mo demostrar que la tienda ten\u00eda conocimiento del peligro<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Una demanda por una ca\u00edda en un supermercado es una demanda por responsabilidad civil de las instalaciones, y toda demanda de este tipo se reduce al deber de cuidado. Debes demostrar que la tienda sab\u00eda, o deber\u00eda haber sabido, de la existencia del peligro antes de que te cayeras. La ley de Carolina del Norte reconoce diferentes formas de demostrar el deber de cuidado:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Aviso oficial<\/strong>. Un empleado vio el derrame, el producto ca\u00eddo o la alfombra rasgada y no lo arregl\u00f3 ni avis\u00f3 a nadie.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Notificaci\u00f3n constructiva<\/strong>. Nadie admite haber visto el peligro, pero estuvo ah\u00ed el tiempo suficiente como para que una rutina de inspecci\u00f3n razonable lo hubiera detectado. Las huellas sucias sobre el derrame, una hoja de lechuga marchita aplastada contra el piso de baldosas o la marca de tiempo de una c\u00e1mara de seguridad que muestre la hora del derrame y cu\u00e1ntas personas pasaron por ah\u00ed podr\u00edan demostrarlo.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Los registros de inspecci\u00f3n, los horarios de limpieza y las grabaciones de vigilancia determinan de qu\u00e9 lado de esa l\u00ednea se ubica un caso; por eso es necesario solicitarlos y conservarlos r\u00e1pidamente, antes de que los ciclos de eliminaci\u00f3n de rutina los borren.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"north-carolinas-contributory-negligence-rule-cuts-both-ways\"><\/span>La regla de negligencia contributiva de Carolina del Norte tiene sus pros y sus contras<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Carolina del Norte es uno de los pocos estados que a\u00fan aplica el principio de negligencia contributiva pura, lo cual cambia la forma en que se preparan y se defienden los casos de ca\u00eddas en supermercados. Seg\u00fan esta norma, si un jurado decide que tuviste incluso un 1% de responsabilidad en tu propia ca\u00edda, no recibir\u00e1s ninguna indemnizaci\u00f3n, sin importar cu\u00e1n descuidada haya sido la tienda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Los peritos de seguros suelen esgrimir esta defensa. Pueden argumentar que estabas mirando tu celular, que llevabas el calzado inadecuado o que el peligro era tan obvio que deb\u00edas haberlo evitado. Los tribunales de Carolina del Norte tambi\u00e9n le dan gran importancia al hecho de si un peligro era evidente y obvio. A diferencia de otros estados que solo reducen tu indemnizaci\u00f3n por este motivo, los tribunales de Carolina del Norte pueden considerarlo una defensa completa. Sin embargo, esto no es autom\u00e1tico y depende de si ten\u00edas una posibilidad realista de notarlo y evitarlo.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nada de eso significa que la tienda gane por defecto. Significa que el caso debe armarse de tal manera que resista precisamente esta defensa, con declaraciones de testigos, grabaciones y expedientes m\u00e9dicos que hagan que la versi\u00f3n de los hechos de la tienda sea m\u00e1s dif\u00edcil de hacer creer ante un jurado.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-to-do-in-the-first-days-after-your-fall\"><\/span>Qu\u00e9 hacer en los primeros d\u00edas despu\u00e9s de una ca\u00edda<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Los d\u00edas inmediatamente posteriores a una ca\u00edda pueden determinar la solidez que tendr\u00e1 el caso m\u00e1s adelante. Hay dos aspectos que son los m\u00e1s importantes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ve al m\u00e9dico aunque te sientas bien<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">La adrenalina enmascara el dolor, y el lapso de tiempo entre la ca\u00edda y tu primera consulta m\u00e9dica le da a la aseguradora margen para argumentar que la lesi\u00f3n se origin\u00f3 en otro lugar. Recibir atenci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica de inmediato acorta ese lapso.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conserva la evidencia antes de que desaparezca<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Las grabaciones de vigilancia se sobrescriben seg\u00fan un calendario establecido. Es posible que sea necesario presentar una solicitud por escrito para que se conserven. Adem\u00e1s, guarda fotos del peligro, del calzado que llevabas puesto y la informaci\u00f3n de contacto de cualquier persona que haya presenciado la ca\u00edda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"frequently-asked-questions\"><\/span>Preguntas frecuentes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u00bfUn letrero de \u201cpiso mojado\u201d protege autom\u00e1ticamente a la tienda de una demanda?<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No, un letrero de \u201cpiso mojado\u201d no exime autom\u00e1ticamente a la tienda de responsabilidad. Si el letrero se cay\u00f3, se coloc\u00f3 en un lugar que no cubr\u00eda el peligro o el l\u00edquido derramado permaneci\u00f3 ah\u00ed m\u00e1s tiempo del que el letrero estuvo colocado, la tienda a\u00fan puede ser responsable. Toma una foto del lugar exacto donde estaba colocado el letrero en relaci\u00f3n con el lugar donde te ca\u00edste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u00bfCu\u00e1nto tiempo tengo para presentar una demanda despu\u00e9s de sufrir una ca\u00edda en un supermercado de Carolina del Norte?<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tienes tres a\u00f1os a partir de la fecha en que sufriste la ca\u00edda, en virtud de <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncleg.gov\/enactedlegislation\/statutes\/html\/bysection\/chapter_1\/gs_1-52.html\" target=\"_blank\">C\u00f3digo General de Carolina del Norte, \u00a7 1-52<\/a>, pero no esperes tanto para actuar. Las pruebas pueden desaparecer r\u00e1pidamente. Habla con un abogado lo antes posible para que no se pierda nada importante.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u00bfDebo firmar el informe del incidente que me da la tienda?<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No tienes que firmar nada en ese momento. Algunos informes de incidentes incluyen frases que podr\u00edan usarse en tu contra m\u00e1s adelante, aunque se presenten como tr\u00e1mites de rutina. Pide una copia, no firmes ninguna exenci\u00f3n de responsabilidad y llama a un abogado antes de aceptar nada por escrito.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u00bfSe resolver\u00e1 mi caso sin tener que ir a la corte?<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">La mayor\u00eda de las demandas por ca\u00eddas en supermercados se resuelven antes de llegar a juicio. Sin embargo, si la oferta no refleja lo que perdiste, presentar una demanda y llevar el caso a juicio podr\u00eda proteger tus derechos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"omalley-tunstall-pc-a-north-carolina-personal-injury-law-firm\"><\/span>O\u2019Malley Tunstall PC: Un bufete de abogados especializado en lesiones personales de Carolina del Norte<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Una ca\u00edda en el pasillo de una tienda de abarrotes puede parecer algo sin importancia hasta que las facturas m\u00e9dicas empiezan a acumularse y la oferta del seguro ni siquiera se acerca a cubrirlas.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Si sufriste una lesi\u00f3n mientras hac\u00edas compras en cualquier lugar entre Raleigh y Rocky Mount, no tienes que calcular por tu cuenta cu\u00e1nto vale tu caso. <a href=\"https:\/\/omalleytunstall.com\/es\/contacto\/\">P\u00f3ngase en contacto con nuestra firma hoy mismo<\/a>.
