Frequently asked questions
Who is liable for a slip and fall in Florida?
A property owner or business can be liable when they knew, or should have known, about a dangerous condition and failed to fix it or warn you. Florida law requires proof the owner had actual or constructive knowledge of the hazard, which is why prompt investigation and evidence are critical.
How long do I have to file a premises liability claim?
Most Florida premises liability injury claims arising after March 24, 2023 must be filed within two years of the injury. Acting quickly helps preserve surveillance footage and incident reports before they are lost.
What should I do after a fall on someone's property?
Report the incident to the property manager and ask for a written report, photograph the hazard and your injuries, get witness information, seek medical care, and keep the shoes and clothing you were wearing. Then contact an attorney before giving a statement to the property's insurer.
