Costco is a well-known and loved warehouse club store which offers home improvement, interior design and other home items at discounted prices. The brand is firmly engrained in the psyche of the average American, and it’s not uncommon to see crowds of people looking for a great deal throughout the week, and more so over the weekend. This, and the fact that the stores are so vast and the products stacked all the way to the ceiling makes it that much more likely for accidents to happen. Under premises liability law, you are accorded something called duty of care which is a fancy way of saying that Costco management and workers must do everything in their power to make sure that you are kept safe the minute you enter their business establishment for the purposes of purchasing something or doing business.
