Fort Lauderdale Slip and Fall Accident Lawyer

Fort Lauderdale Slip and Fall Accident Lawyer

Property owners have a duty to keep their premises in good condition to protect the safety of guests and/or tenants. People who own any type of property, including shop owners, landlords, and even everyday homeowners can be held financially responsible for the resulting injuries of visitors to their premises when they fail to keep them safe by subjecting them to dangerous conditions, neglect to make necessary repairs, or in some cases to provide adequate security against crime in the area—a type of liability known in legal circles as “negligent security”. If you were hurt because of a property owner’s negligence, an experienced Fort Lauderdale slip and fall accident lawyer from our firm is available to advocate for your right to recover fair compensation for your injuries.

What is premises liability?

Property owners, managers, and occupants have an obligation to provide reasonably safe premises for those who visit as guests, customers, clients, or patrons. Where a dangerous property condition exists that results in the injuries of another, the property owner may be held liable for damages connected with such injuries.

This is called premises liability and applies to both public and private properties, including, but not limited to, the following:

  • Office buildings;
  • Retail outlets;
  • Department stores;
  • Movies theaters;
  • Entertainment venues;
  • Apartment buildings;
  • Educational institutions;
  • Financial institutions; and
  • Parking structures.

Where a dangerous property condition exists, the owner or manager should remedy it in a timely manner or alert visitors and others to its potential risks until it is remedied.
