If you were present at the Valley Stream Wal-Mart Store on the morning of November 28, 2008 between 2:30AM and 6:00AM and, as a result of the crowd-related events that occurred during that time period, you suffered personal injuries or property damage, you may be eligible to receive payment for your out-of-pocket losses or damages. A Recovery Fund has been jointly established by the Nassau County District Attorneys’ Office and Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. to enable you to resolve your claims quickly, while avoiding costly and lengthy civil litigation.
This program is optional. If you choose not to participate in the program, you are free to pursue any legal remedies separately in court.
To participate, you must provide evidence of your claim. You will be required to complete a sworn Claimant’s Affidavit describing your claimed losses and/or damages and provide any documentation you have to support your claim.
This program is time-sensitive. Your claim must be postmarked no later than June 20, 2009. Unfortunately, we cannot allow exceptions to this time limit. If your claim is late, you will not be able to participate in this program, but you will still be able to pursue your claim separately in court.
