Slip and Fall Accidents in Pembroke Pines, FL Can Cause Surprisingly Severe Injuries

Hear Directly from our Clients
When the property owner in question owns some type of business that you were visiting in order to potentially make a purchase or otherwise provide that owner with financial gain, the owner has a much more involved duty of care to keep the premises safe. In these cases, you are considered to be an “invitee”, which means that you were invited onto the property to further the property owner’s profit motive. Because of this, the property owner has:
- A duty to maintain the property in a reasonably safe condition
- A duty to inspect the property to identify any safety hazards
- A duty to provide adequate warning of any dangers on the property
In these types of slip and fall accident cases, the property owner can be held financially responsible for your injuries even if that owner didn’t have actual knowledge of the danger—it is sufficient that, with reasonable care and inspection, the owner should have known that the danger existed.
Skilled Slip and Fall Accident Lawyers Dedicating to Winning Full and Fair Compensation for Pembroke Pines Clients
Because evidence in a slip and fall accident case can quickly disappear—for example, in cases where the property owner takes swift action to remedy the danger once someone has been injured—it is important to get legal help quickly so that we can take steps to preserve the evidence. If you are physically able to do so after your accident, try to take the following steps:
- Take photos of the accident scene and your injuries
- Obtain the contact information of any witnesses, including other store patrons, employees or anyone who saw the accident occur
- Report the accident to someone in charge, such as a store manager or the property owner or landlord
- Look around and take careful note of the scene, including whether any warning signs had been placed or whether video surveillance is available
