Common Questions About Slip and Fall Claims

What qualifies as a slip and fall case?
A slip and fall case happens whenever someone gets injured from some hazardous condition on the other’s property, like wet floors, uneven surfaces, poor lighting, or debris, something the owner failed to take care of.
Do I have a valid slip and fall claim?
Under a dangerous condition that was known or should have been known by the owner, and the owner failed or refused in a reasonable time to protect or warn the injured party, you may have a claim for the injury.
What should I do right away following a trip and fall?
One should seek medical treatment, report the mishap to the landowner or manager, take photographs of the area, collect witness information, and make sure not to give any detailed comments until having legal advice.
How long do I have to file a slip and fall claim?
In Florida, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims—including slip and fall cases—is typically two years from the date of the incident. However, it’s best to act promptly.
What kind of compensation can I receive?
You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, ongoing treatment, and other damages related to your injury.
What if the accident happened at a business or public place?
Businesses and public properties have a legal duty to maintain safe premises. If they failed to do so and you were injured, they can be held liable through a premises liability claim.
Can I still recover damages if I was partially at fault?
Yes, Florida is a comparative negligence state; thus, your compensation may be reduced by whatever percentage is held against you, but you do have the ability to still recover damages.
Why should I hire a law firm like Mager Parúas for my slip and fall case?
Mager Parúas has been involved in premises liability disputes for decades. We stand for your rights in the collection of proof, negotiation with insurance companies, and if necessary, appear in court for you.
What evidence is most important in a slip and fall case?
Key pieces of evidence would include images or video footage of the hazardous condition, medical records, statements from witnesses, incident reports, and evidence showing that the property owner actually knew about the danger. The more of this evidence you have, the stronger your case will be.
What if the property owner denies responsibility?
If fault is denied by the owner, we will conduct thorough investigations to amass surveillance footage, maintenance records, witness statements, and expert opinions so as to build a compelling case on your behalf.
