Your Fall Was Not Just an Accident. It Was Negligence.
Property owners have a legal duty to keep their premises safe from foreseeable harm. When they fail in this duty—by not cleaning up a spill, fixing a broken handrail, or providing adequate lighting—and you get hurt, they are liable. We represent clients injured in all types of locations, including supermarkets, hotels, restaurants, apartment complexes, and parking lots across Miami.
How We Prove Property Owner Negligence:
- Evidence Preservation: We act fast to obtain surveillance footage, incident reports, and witness statements before they vanish.
- Establishing Notice: We work to prove the owner knew or should have known about the dangerous condition that caused your fall.
- Demonstrating Your Losses: We meticulously document your medical treatments, lost wages, and the full impact the injury has had on your life.

Slip and Fall Claim FAQs
How long do I have to file a slip and fall lawsuit in Miami?
In Florida, the statute of limitations for most negligence claims, including slip and falls, is generally two years from the date of the incident. It is critical to contact us immediately to preserve evidence before it disappears.
What if the property owner says they didn't know about the hazard?
They don't have to have actual knowledge. If they *should have known* about the dangerous condition through reasonable inspection and maintenance, they can still be held liable. This is a key part of what we prove in your case.
Can I still have a case if I was partially at fault?
Yes. Florida uses a 'comparative negligence' rule. This means your compensation may be reduced by your percentage of fault, but it doesn't bar you from recovering damages. We work to minimize any blame unfairly placed on you.
