    This is probably better suited to the Legal Discussion forum.

    Fairly sure they should be responsible for keeping the place in tip top. Was there any warning signs around?

    1st thing you should do is contact the store to tell them so nobody else suffers the same as you. 2nd would be to ask are they willing to admit liability and help you out with medical expenses before you seak legal aid and advice.

    Don't threaten to screw them over with a claim or the likes, you'll just get their backs up and you'll be waiting a long time for any sort of compensation. Be civil and ask if they're willing to pay your medical bills and what not.
