Walmart injury lawsuits in federal court: the numbers
We counted every personal injury lawsuit against Walmart and Sam’s Club filed in a federal court from 2016 through 2025, using the federal judiciary’s own case database. The numbers show what happens to these cases once a lawsuit is filed.
How the 12,315 closed cases ended
| Outcome | Share |
|---|---|
| Settled | 56.8% |
| Voluntarily dismissed by the injured person | 11.8% |
| Sent back to state court | 8.5% |
| Decided by the judge on a motion before trial | 4.2% |
| Dismissed by the judge for other reasons | 11.4% |
| Jury verdict | 0.6% |
| Other (transfers, closings, other judgments) | 6.7% |
Of the 77 jury verdicts, the court records show judgment for the injured person in 30, for Walmart in 40, and split or unrecorded in 7. Walmart has won more of these trials than it has lost, and very few cases get that far.

Filings went from 882 in 2016 to 1,629 in 2025. Cases filed in recent years are more likely to still be open, so their outcome numbers will change.

No Delaware cases appear because Walmart Inc. is a Delaware corporation, so it cannot use diversity of citizenship to move a Delaware case to federal court.

How we counted. Source: the Federal Judicial Center’s Integrated Database of federal civil cases (cases closed through June 30, 2026 and cases still pending). We kept cases filed January 1, 2016 through December 31, 2025 that name Walmart, Wal-Mart, Sam’s East, Sam’s West or Sam’s Club as a defendant and are coded as personal injury (nature-of-suit codes 310–368), counting each case once. Outcomes use the court’s disposition and judgment codes as defined in the FJC codebook. These are federal cases only; cases that stay in state court are not counted. Dollar amounts are not shown because the FJC advises the amount field is not reliable. We matched 8,080 of the cases to their dockets on CourtListener to check the names and dates. Court clerks sometimes abbreviate names, so a small number of Walmart cases may be missing.

What Walmart cases usually involve
- Slips on spills, leaking coolers, produce, wet entrances and rainwater tracked inside.
- Trips over pallets, stocking carts, floor mats and merchandise left in aisles.
- Merchandise or displays that fall from shelves, top stock or checkout racks.
- Parking lot potholes, broken curbs, poor lighting and cart corrals.
- Crashes with Walmart tractor-trailers and delivery vehicles.
Real Walmart cases and what they show
These are other people’s cases from court records and news reports, not Beverly Law cases. They show the range: large verdicts, verdicts reduced for the shopper’s share of fault, and cases Walmart won.
Other people’s cases from court records and news reports, not Beverly Law cases. Allegations are not proof, and past results do not predict future outcomes.
San Diego County, California · 2024 · Parking lot
A shopper who fell in a pothole in a Walmart parking lot in February 2020 and later had spinal fusion surgery went to trial in March 2024. The jury returned about $2.45 million and put 35% of the fault on another business that shared the lot and had settled, which cut the collectible amount to roughly $1.6 million. Her attorney said Walmart’s highest offer before trial was “several hundred thousand dollars.” Source ↗
Orlando, Florida · 2026 report · Floor mat
A shopper tripped on a rug or floor mat in the produce section of a Walmart Neighborhood Market in August 2020. She claimed the mat was not secured or inspected. The case was reported in February 2026 as a $1.7 million verdict. Source ↗
Valdosta, Georgia · 2026 · Spill in an aisle
A shopper slipped on spilled liquid in the dog-food aisle in November 2020 and sued in 2022. A jury found Walmart 95% at fault and awarded $975,000, about $926,000 after her 5% share. In November 2026 the Georgia Court of Appeals granted Walmart a new trial under the state’s new lawsuit rules, so six years after the fall the case is not over. Source ↗
Missouri · 2026 · Falling display
A man standing in a checkout line at a Walmart Neighborhood Market was pulled to the floor when a filled checkout display, about 50 pounds, fell on him. He was left with permanent nerve damage in his right shoulder, arm and hand. The jury awarded $470,000 and found Walmart 70% at fault and the customer 30%. Source ↗
Davenport, Iowa · Federal court · Parking lot (Walmart won)
A 64-year-old shopper fell near a cart corral in a Walmart parking lot in July 2018 after a clear plastic hanger dropped from carts an employee had been collecting. Walmart moved the case to federal court, and the jury found for Walmart. Source ↗

Common questions
Can I sue Walmart if I get hurt in the store?
Yes, if Walmart’s carelessness caused the injury, for example a hazard employees created, knew about, or should have found and fixed with reasonable inspections. Being hurt in the store is not enough by itself.
Who handles injury claims for Walmart?
Walmart Claims Services, Inc., which Walmart describes as the casualty claims administrator for Walmart and its insurance carriers. In some places it does business as Claims Management, Inc.
How long do I have to sue Walmart?
It depends on the state: generally two years in California and Texas and three years in Washington, and different elsewhere. Waiting is risky because store video can be recorded over long before the deadline.
