Fighting for Victims of Negligent Property Maintenance

Common reasons people need a slip and fall lawyer:

• Wet floors without warning signs
• Uneven walking surfaces
• Poorly maintained staircases
• Inadequate lighting in walkways
• Debris or obstacles in pathways
• Building code violations
• Defective sidewalks or parking lots

Common questions

How long do I have to file a slip and fall lawsuit in Florida?

In Florida, you generally have two years from the date of your slip and fall accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. This is known as the statute of limitations. However, certain circumstances may extend or shorten this timeframe. For example, if your slip and fall occurred on government property, you may have additional notice requirements and shorter deadlines. It's crucial to consult with an attorney as soon as possible after your accident to ensure your rights are protected and all deadlines are met.

What compensation can I recover in a slip and fall case?

Victims of slip and fall accidents may be entitled to various types of compensation, including medical expenses (both current and future), lost wages, loss of earning capacity, pain and suffering, physical impairment or disfigurement, and loss of enjoyment of life. In cases involving particularly egregious negligence, punitive damages may also be available. The specific compensation you may recover depends on the severity of your injuries, the impact on your life, and the circumstances of the accident. At The Law Office of Brian R Toung, PA, we work diligently to pursue maximum compensation for all damages you've suffered.

What must be proven to win a slip and fall case?

To succeed in a slip and fall case in Florida, you must establish several key elements: (1) The property owner owed you a duty of care based on your status as an invitee, licensee, or trespasser; (2) The property owner knew or should have known about the dangerous condition; (3) The property owner failed to repair, warn about, or take other reasonable steps regarding the hazard; (4) This negligence directly caused your injuries; and (5) You suffered actual damages as a result. Additionally, Florida follows a comparative negligence standard, which means your compensation may be reduced by the percentage of fault attributed to you. Our firm thoroughly investigates each case to build strong evidence supporting these elements.
