How Florida Law Applies to Slip and Fall Claims

Florida's premises liability standard requires property owners to use reasonable care in maintaining their premises and to warn guests of hazards they knew about or should have discovered through routine inspection. Under Florida Statute 768.0755, which governs slip and fall claims involving transitory foreign substances, an injured person must show that the business had actual or constructive knowledge of the dangerous condition. This is one of the most heavily litigated provisions in Florida premises liability law, and insurers for businesses and property owners exploit it aggressively. My Trial Lawyer investigates incident reports, surveillance footage, cleaning logs, and employee testimony to establish what the property owner knew and when they knew it.

What Damages Are Available in a Florida Slip and Fall Case?

Slip and fall victims in Florida may recover compensation for all medical expenses including emergency treatment, physical therapy, and future care needs; lost wages during recovery; reduced earning capacity for injuries that affect the ability to work; physical pain and suffering; and emotional distress. The severity of the injury and the clarity of the property owner's negligence are the two biggest factors that determine the value of a slip and fall claim. My Trial Lawyer conducts a full damages analysis for every premises liability case and negotiates aggressively with the property owner's insurer before any settlement agreement is reached.
