Hollywood Slip and Fall Attorneys

Slip and fall accidents can happen to anyone, anytime and anywhere. Whether you’re at work or the grocery store, you’re always at risk of being harmed by poor or dangerous conditions on the property. While these incidents may sometimes seem like minor inconveniences, the severe injuries, costly medical bills and substantial pain and suffering they cause can’t be ignored. If you or a loved one has been injured in a slip and fall accident caused by dangerous conditions on someone else’s property, the attorneys at Kanner & Pintaluga will work hard to help you secure the settlement you deserve.

What Can Cause a Slip and Fall Accident?

Clutter: Walkways littered with objects that someone could easily trip on and fall over.
Uneven or Broken Surfaces: Cracked sidewalks, potholes, torn carpets, loose tiles or uneven flooring.
Inadequate Lighting: Poorly lit areas can make it difficult to see the area in front of you, leaving you vulnerable to potential hazards.
Hazardous Weather Conditions: Rain, storms and hurricanes can result in slippery surfaces and dangerous property conditions.
Negligent Maintenance: The property owner or manager may fail to address potential hazards, putting occupants and visitors at risk.

What Do You Need to Prove Your Slip and Fall Case?

1. The property owner had a duty of care (this is automatic for all legal visitors to properties in Florida).
2. That duty of care was breached because the property owner neglected to fix hazardous conditions they were aware of or should have been aware of.
3. The breach of duty directly caused your injuries.
4. The result of the accident has made your life worse, including things like lost wages, medical bills, pain and suffering and a reduced quality of life.

Florida Laws That Affect Slip and Fall Cases

Property owners have an obligation to maintain a safe premises and warn visitors of any known hazards. If they fail to fulfill this duty, they may be held liable for any injuries sustained on the property as a result.

This protection generally doesn’t extend to trespassers except in narrow circumstances. Property owners cannot intentionally cause injuries to trespassers, but they may not be liable if a trespasser is injured by a hazard that would otherwise justify a personal injury claim were the victim a legal visitor.

Similarly, due to Florida’s comparative negligence laws, if the injured party is deemed to be partially responsible for the accident, their compensation may be reduced proportionately. The experienced attorneys at Kanner & Pintaluga will help you pursue fair compensation for what you’ve endured, whether you were partly at fault or not.

Hurdles Slip and Fall Claims Filers Might Face

Liability Disputes

Establishing who is responsible for the accident can be difficult, especially if multiple parties – such as property owners, tenants or maintenance companies – are involved. Additionally, insurance companies won’t be on your side and may attempt to shift blame or downplay the severity of the incident, making it challenging for victims to receive fair compensation.

Lack of Evidence

Proving the negligence of the property owner or possessor is crucial in slip and fall cases. However, evidence can be lost or difficult to collect, especially if the accident site is not preserved properly. Surveillance footage might be erased, witnesses could be challenging to locate and important details may fade from memory over time. Even delaying medical treatment after your accident can diminish your chances of receiving fair compensation.

Preexisting Conditions

Insurance companies may use the presence of pre-existing medical conditions to dispute the severity of injuries sustained in a slip and fall accident. They might argue that the injuries were not a direct result of the accident, which can be hard for victims to prove without the proper medical records.

Consulting with a skilled personal injury attorney can maximize your chances of getting the best possible outcome for your claim.
