    When to Start Your Premises Liability Case

    In general, Florida Statutes § 95.11 gives injured victims two years to file a lawsuit. It is a good idea to begin promptly to protect your right to take legal action.

    However, we do not have to litigate every case we handle. Many cases settle without going to court. Our Hollywood law firm can fight for justice no matter what your case requires.

    Our Hollywood Law Firm Can Seek Slip and Fall Damages for You

    Fall accident injuries are not always predictable. Victims suffer a wide range of injury types and severities, from relatively minor to catastrophic. Some falls are deadly or leave victims with lifelong disabilities. Some injuries we have seen in our clients include:

    • Sprains, strains, tears, and other joint injuries
    • Serious lacerations
    • Head trauma and traumatic brain injuries
    • Neck and back injuries
    • Spinal cord injuries, sometimes with paralysis
    • Fractures

    Because of the various injuries that fall accidents can cause, each case is unique. Some individuals require only an emergency department or urgent care visit and follow-up care. Others spend weeks in the hospital, followed by extensive inpatient rehabilitation. Some never live independently or return to work again.

    Slip and Fall Damages Can Provide for Your Family

    Our slip and fall accident attorneys know how to document the injuries, expenses, and losses our clients incur. This allows us to understand what a fair settlement might look like in each case. We work with experts to understand the client’s prognosis and future care needs. Then, we pursue compensation to cover it all. This includes:

    • Medical care required to date at facilities like Memorial Regional Hospital
    • Future treatment, care, and support
    • Lost income
    • Diminished earning capacity caused by permanent disabilities
    • Related expenses, usually with receipts
    • Pain and suffering and other non-economic losses

    We also represent families in wrongful death cases. Fall accidents can be deadly under some circumstances. Our attorneys can help families fight for justice for their loved ones and recover money for their expenses and losses.

    Our Hollywood Attorneys Can Investigate Your Slip and Fall Case

    When you hire our Hollywood attorneys to represent you, you are gaining 50+ years of experience, knowledge, and skill for your case. Our large firm has handled many cases during this time, and we are familiar with how, where, and why fall injuries occur.

    In other words, as we investigate your case, we know exactly what we are looking for and how to find the right information and evidence as soon as possible.

    Where Do Falls Occur in Hollywood?

    A fall injury could occur almost anywhere. Fall injury cases are based on premises liability laws, and the property owner or lessee is generally liable for injuries. This means you could seek compensation from the owner for a fall that happened in almost any location, such as:

    • Your apartment building or parking lot
    • A local store
    • A shopping mall, like Hollywood Hills Plaza
    • A parking lot or garage
    • A restaurant
    • A theater or music venue, like the Regal Oakwood
    • A theme park, like Castaway Island
    • Someone else’s home

    In general, you might have a valid slip and fall lawsuit if your fall occurred because of a preventable hazard on the property. Property owners must keep their buildings and premises free from unreasonable hazards. To hold the accused party accountable, you must show they knew or should have known about the hazard.

    Hazards That May Cause Slip and Fall Accidents

    Some common types of hazards in fall injury cases include: 

    • Leaks
    • Spills
    • Tracked water, such as from rain
    • Slick residue on floors
    • Rolled rugs or torn carpet
    • Uneven sidewalks
    • Unmarked steps
    • Poor lighting
    • Potholes or other damaged pavement
    • Trip hazards in the walkway
    • Uneven steps on a staircase
    • Broken or missing handrails

    How We Can Prove Your Premises Liability Case

    The evidence we use to compel the insurance companies or liable parties to pay an appropriate settlement depends greatly on the circumstances, including where the accident happened and how soon we are able to start investigating. However, some common types of evidence in these cases include:

    • Video of the fall
    • Eyewitness statements
    • Video or photographs of the hazard
    • Relevant medical records
    • Medical expert testimony
    • Documentation of damages

    Using this evidence, we are often able to negotiate a settlement for our clients or litigate their cases and win a verdict in court.
