More details to this question:
I bought sushi from Publix tonight and on the 4th piece I crunched down on a piece of glass that broke a BIG chip off my molar. Have to go to dentist first thing in morning because it’s sharp and hurts my tongue and tooth is sore. Are they liable for bill?

Hello Crystal,
I am sorry to hear about your injury and hope it is not serious and can be repaired simply without major procedure.
Seek appropriate medical care.
Preserve glass/ take photos. Preserve proof of purchase receipt / container / contents. Report incident.
Contact a Personal Injury Attorney as soon as possible to review all facts and circumstances-especially details regarding the dangerous condition which caused your injury- and hopefully obtain representation, rather than pursuing Publix on your own.
However, if you are interested in consulting with one of us, you will have to reach out, as attorneys are unable to directly solicit on this forum.

IF you can prove this was caused by Publix.....possibly. Bear in mind that in most cases they will reject such claims absent some clear evidence that support your claim and hopefully you still have theglass piece so they can analyze it. As you might imagine many people fake such claims trying to get money from retailers.
