Slip and Fall Accident Attorneys in Florida 

Slip and fall accidents are some of the most common incidents in Broward County Florida and across the United States. Every day, people suffer injuries due to the negligence or carelessness of property owners.

Many businesses, property owners, or renters carry insurance to protect themselves in case someone is injured on their property. However, insurance companies often try to minimize payouts by offering low settlements or even denying valid claims altogether.

If you’ve suffered an injury from a slip and fall in a public place or private home, it’s essential to seek expert advice. We have the experience and knowledge needed to evaluate your injury and determine whether you're entitled to compensation.

Where Do Slip and Fall Accidents Happen?

A slip and fall can occur virtually anywhere. On public property, common locations include:

• Federal buildings
• Schools
• Retail stores
• Malls
• Restaurants
• Grocery stores
• Parking lots
• Sidewalks
• Nightclubs
• Hotels
• Casinos

Slip and fall accidents can also happen in private homes. Whether the home is owned or rented, if negligence can be proven, you may still have grounds for a claim against the owner, landlord, or renter.

The causes of slip and fall accidents vary but typically involve conditions such as:

• Spilled liquids
• Recently mopped floors
• Uneven surfaces
• Changes in floor covering
• Poor lighting
• Narrow stair treads
• Inadequate handrails
• Walkway grates or covers
• Unmarked curbs or steps
• Poorly constructed staircases
• Oil or sand deposits on floors
• Highly polished or recently waxed floors
• Tripping hazards

Determining the exact cause of the injury often requires a detailed investigation and specialized knowledge. That’s why it’s crucial to consult with us if you’ve been injured in a slip and fall accident.

What Kinds of Injuries Result From a Slip and Fall?

Slip and fall accidents can lead to a wide range of injuries, from minor cuts and bruises to more severe damage. Some common injuries include:

• Sprained ankles
• Knee damage
• Dislocated shoulders
• Severe muscle strains
• Brain trauma

Recovery from these injuries can be expensive and time-consuming, often requiring missed work and impacting your ability to enjoy everyday life. Even seemingly minor injuries can have long-lasting consequences, and more serious injuries, such as traumatic brain injuries, can severely limit your ability to function normally.

Given the potential severity of these injuries, it's clear why slip and fall cases are often hotly contested by insurance companies and property owners.
