Slip and Fall Accident at Subway in Cape Coral

Subway sandwich shop got its start when Fred DeLuca was 17 years old and seeking a way to pay for college. With an idea to start a submarine sandwich shop and a $1,000 loan from a family friend, Dr. Peter Buck, the two became partners and opened “Pete’s Super Submarines” in 1965. The name was later changed to Subway in 1968.

By 1974, the duo operated 16 Subways throughout Connecticut. The partners aimed to reach 32 stores and launched a successful franchise model. Today, there are over 37,000 Subway shops across 100 countries.

Cape Coral has 8 Subway locations, including:

  • Capri Commons at 428 Del Prado Blvd N.
  • Midpoint Center at 2522 Santa Barbara Blvd
  • Cape Coral Hospital at 636 Del Prado Blvd
  • Publix Shopping Center at 106 W. Handcock Bridge Parkway
  • Shoppes at North Cape at 2481 Del Prado Blvd N.
  • Publix at Coral Shores at 3105 Pine Island Road SW

You can also find Subway locations at 1616 W. Cape Coral Parkway and 3038 Del Prado Blvd in Cape Coral.

No one expects to get hurt when they visit a Cape Coral Subway restaurant. However, injuries at restaurants like Subway can be more common than you might expect. While accidents may happen for many reasons, slips and falls are among the most common.

Slips and falls may be caused by:

  • Spilled beverages
  • Overflowing soda or ice machines
  • Floor mats without the proper non-slip surface could slide out when stepped on
  • Bathroom floors that are wet from leaking pipes or overflowing sinks or toilets
  • Store entrances that become wet from rain splashing inside or water tracked in on the shoes of other customers
  • Employees who forget to leave warning signs after they’ve mopped or waxed the floors
  • Wet leaves or debris left on outside sidewalks could make walking surfaces slippery
  • Parking lot paint used to mark spots and crosswalks could get slippery when it rains if it doesn’t contain non-slip materials
Can I Seek Compensation if Hurt in a Slip and Fall at a Cape Coral Subway?

If you've been hurt in a slip-and-fall accident at Subway, seeking compensation for your injuries may be possible. To do so, you must build a case that shows that the damage was caused by another responsible party's negligence.

Florida’s premises liability laws require business owners and operators to keep their property reasonably safe for invited guests, like customers. As such, Subway owners and operators should take steps to keep invited guests on their property safe, such as:

  • Conduct regular inspections of the restaurant,
  • Remedy identified hazards or notify guests if not yet fixed,
  • Warn invited guests of concealed dangers that the owner or operator should reasonably know about.

If you suffered significant injury because the owner, operator, or another responsible party failed to keep the property safe, you might be compensated for the cost of your medical care, lost income, and pain and suffering.

Yet, dealing with Subway or any other company can be tricky when you or someone in your family has been badly hurt. Some companies have legal teams dedicated to protecting them against loss – so they might approach you with an offer to settle quickly if you’ve been seriously injured. When you are hurt and dealing with painful injuries, settling fast may seem like a good option – especially if you can’t pay your bills.

Keep in mind that settling fast isn't always in your best interest. Instead, it can be a tactic a company uses to keep its payout as low as possible. Seeking help from a Cape Coral accident lawyer can be crucial to understanding your legal rights before you settle.
