    Post: Misplaced hammer fell on me in Lowe's

    Posted by Patricia on 6/21/06


    I was being shown hammers from a wall display in Lowe's Home
    Improvement store in Woburn, MA by an employee,when reaching
    for one indicated by the salesperson,it hit the hammer next
    to it and knocked it down. It bounced off my face and the
    salesman said it was in the wrong place. I immediately went
    to customer service to speak to a manager and file an injury
    report. I was told by the safety manager, and eventually the
    store manager, that there were no injury reports and to just
    wait until the corporate office contacts me. I refused to
    leave without something in writing, so I finally wrote out a
    statement that the safety manager signed. I also saw my
    doctor the following morning for bruises on my face. Help, I
    need a lawyer...they refused to pay my medical co-payment of
    $15.00 because I didn't fill out any paperwork!! Not to
    mention the bruises and duress..I really need a lawyer, any
    recommendations? Never done this before...thank you.
