Legal Question in Personal Injury in California

I fell in walmart in california. I fell really hard on some sort of liquid, I had to call it to their attention. They could see it was in 3 different aisles. I filled out a report and took pictures. A few days later I went to an orthpedic dr who took xrays. Nothing was broken, just very painful for about a month. Walmart has agreed to pay my $650 dr bill, but only wants to settle for $1200. I feel their negligent in housekeeping and safety are not acceptable. This happened in november. I went in the store in january to speak with a manager. I spoke with him to get a copy of the report, he told me he would callme. Never heard from him. Went in a few weeks later and spoke with anther manager who stated I did not have the right to the report. I told him by law it was my right to get a copy, he then took me in the back stalled a little more than gave it to me. On the form it states a copy should be given to the customer. There was so much physical and emotional distress. From the fall to trying to get the report from them. What should be acceptable payment, I don't $1200 is acceptable.
