Slip and Fall Accident Attorneys in Boca Raton, FL

If you or a loved one has been injured in a slip and fall accident, you may have a claim against the negligent parties responsible. Most slip and fall cases involve a person who slips or trips and falls, causing injury to himself or herself due to an unsafe condition that exists on the premises. The injured person can file a claim against the property owner for injuries sustained during a slip and fall accident and suffered as a result thereafter. A property owner has a duty to maintain the property and to eliminate any unsafe conditions.

STANDARD OF PROOF

A victim who is a plaintiff in a slip and fall case must establish that a business, or property owner, had actual or constructive knowledge of the dangerous condition, and should have acted to remedy it. Establishing that a business or property owner had actual knowledge of a dangerous condition can be difficult. Many cases will involve constructive knowledge.

Florida law specifically provides that a plaintiff can show constructive knowledge by introducing evidence that shows either of the following factors:

That the condition occurred with regularity and was therefore foreseeable

- or -

the dangerous condition existed for such a length of time that, in the exercise of ordinary care, the business establishment should have known of the condition that caused your injuries.
