Do You Have a Case? Florida Slip and Fall Law Explained

Duty of Care

Property owners in Florida must keep their premises reasonably safe for visitors. This includes fixing hazards and warning about dangers they know or should know about.

Proving Negligence

To win a slip and fall case, you must show the owner knew or should have known about the hazard and failed to fix it or warn you. Evidence like photos, incident reports, and witness statements are key.

Time Limits

Florida law gives you four years from the date of injury to file a slip and fall lawsuit. Don't wait—evidence disappears quickly.
