What to Do After a Florida Slip and Fall
After a slip and fall, you should:
Recovering Compensation through a Florida Slip and Fall Lawsuit
Florida law specifically outlines what it takes to win a slip and fall case. We know how to prove these elements and establish negligence in court. In any personal injury lawsuit, you must prove the four elements of a negligence claim: the person or corporation responsible for your injuries owed you a duty of care, they breached that duty, your injuries were caused by their negligence, and you have suffered damages because of their negligence. In addition, if you slipped on a substance, such as water on a store’s flooring, you must prove that the substance created a dangerous condition, the property owner knew or should have reasonably known about this dangerous condition, and they did not fix it. We know how to prove these elements and establish negligence in court.
You will in most cases only have two years from the date of the accident to file a slip and fall lawsuit. If a slip and fall later results in death, you will have two years from the date of your loved one’s passing to pursue a wrongful death claim.
A slip and fall lawsuit can help you recover compensation for many types of losses, including:
The property owner may try and claim you were partially responsible for your slip and fall. The good news is you can still recover some compensation if the court agrees you are partly to blame. You will be assigned a percentage of fault, which will determine how much you can potentially recover. You will only be able to get 90% of your total damages if the court decides you are 10% responsible, for example. However, under a 2023 reform to statewide tort laws including Florida Statute 768.81(6), you may not recover compensation if you were more than 50% at fault.
Many slip and fall claims never make it to trial, and the property owner in your case may attempt to settle out of court. Our team at The Gray Law Firm, LLC is committed to protecting your interests and will always pursue the best possible outcome.
