Shopkeepers have a duty to keep their store clear of any hazards. However, in your situation, a shopkeeper may not reasonably have had enough time to clean up a spill, especially if you had just made it moments before. How much time had elapsed between the time you spilled the items and the time you fell? Did you spill everything that was on the floor which caused your fall?

It sounds to me like you may have a premises liability case (slip and fall) case against the supermarket. I have done these types of cases against most of the major supermarkets in the State and some small ones. If you want to learn more about these cases go to my slip and fall website at http://www.slip-and-fall.net or better yet call my office for a free consultation at 800-816-1529 ext. 1.
