Slip, Trip and Fall Injury Lawyers – Premises Liability/Negligent Security Attorneys
It is estimated that more than one million people are injured in a slip, trip and fall accident every year. When a person slips, trips and falls, the case is usually classified under what is known as a premises liability claim. This means that someone was injured on another person’s property and because of the negligent care or maintenance of that property(when applicable), the property owner could be found negligent and be held financially liable for any damages suffered. Most commercial and even residential properties are insured, as a requirement of financing, and cover this type of event.
The victim of a personal injury is responsible for showing how the owner or maintainer of the property site is liable for any pain and suffering. For this to be successful, the situation that caused the accident cannot be open or obvious. A hazardous condition is open and obvious when a reasonable person in the same scenario would have seen the peril and avoided it. Simply being clumsy and not paying attention to your surroundings cannot get you compensated for injuries suffered on another person’s property. If it is found that the dangerous condition was open and obvious, the liable could be placed on the injured party.
When you decide to make a personal injury claim for a slip, trip and fall injury there will be many questions asked of you. A competent Florida Slip, Trip and Fall Attorney can assist you with all legal matters relevant to your case and accident, so it is important contact Whittel & Melton immediately following your accident. It is important to be aware that Florida law does impose a statute of limitations that sets a maximum amount of time that legal action can be taken after the date of the accident. It is very important not to wait too long before calling us so that you can get the just compensation you deserve before time runs out. Remember to seek medical attention first and then dial 352-793-9330 for legal help.
