Tallahassee Slip & Fall Attorney
// GET THE COMPENSATION YOU DESERVE
Tallahassee Slip and Fall Attorneys
Even a minor slip can result in substantial head and spinal damage if you fall the wrong way. Your ability to earn a living or even move around freely could be put in jeopardy by a single bad fall.
A disturbing number of slip and falls in Tallahassee are due to a property manager or owner’s failure to maintain the premises. Whether they neglected to put up a warning sign on a wet floor, clear clutter or provide sufficient lighting in dark areas, they inadvertently put occupants and visitors alike in harm’s way and caused a significant amount of unnecessary grief.
If you or a loved one have been severely injured by a bad fall due to someone else’s negligence, the attorneys at Kanner & Pintaluga will zealously defend your right to fair compensation and fight to bolster your possible settlement so you can recover during a stressful time.

Who Is Usually at Fault for Slip and Fall Accidents?
In most cases, property owners are held responsible. Whether they are individuals or businesses, they have a responsibility to maintain a safe environment. Property owners are expected to regularly inspect their premises, repair hazards promptly and provide warnings for any potential dangers. Failure to do so can make them liable for slip and fall accidents that occur on their property.
Alternatively, in cases where a property owner contracts maintenance or cleaning services, the company responsible for these services may be at fault if their negligence or improper work led to the hazardous condition that caused the accident.
A slip and fall might also occur on public property or a government-owned location, such as a sidewalk or government building, making the government entity responsible for maintaining the area liable. However, it’s important to note that filing a claim against a government entity involves unique requirements, which our experienced attorneys will help walk you through.
Sometimes, a third party may contribute to the accident. For example, a contractor working on the premises or a manufacturer of a defective product (e.g., a faulty handrail) could be partially responsible for the slip and fall incident.
What Do I Need to Prove in My Slip and Fall Case?
Property owners are legally obligated by Florida law to take proper action to keep their premises safe to prevent potential accidents. They must address any hazards promptly and give adequate warning of dangers to visitors and occupants. However, if someone is injured due to a neglected hazard that the property owner or occupier knew about, could have known about or should have known about, they could be held liable in a slip and fall accident claim.
As such, you need to establish that your injuries are a direct result of them betraying their duty of care. This can include evidence that proves the accident occurred – photos/videos of the obstacle that caused your accident, witness testimony and physical evidence (e.g., torn clothing) – and evidence of the resultant, quantifiable damages, such as medical bills and pay stubs showing lost wages. The attorneys at our Tallahassee firm will help you gather thorough evidence and calculate the minimum compensation you need to fully recover.
