Property owners have an obligation to ensure that their premises are safe for the people who visit. This means places such as stores need to remedy any hazardous conditions before they can result in a guest being hurt. These responsibilities are encoded in what lawyers refer to as "premises liability" law.
Sadly, these situations are not always addressed with the urgency they demand, leading to slip and falls and other incidents. If you were hurt because you slipped and fell, you have the right to seek compensation for your injuries under Florida's premises liability laws. Jurewitz Law Group has vast experience helping slip and fall accident victims get the compensation they are entitled to. We know a slip and fall accident can leave you with serious injuries that impact your health, your work, and your peace of mind, and have helped the people of Florida in a variety of slip and fall accident cases, including:
The most common cause of slip and fall accidents is wet floors. If you slipped and fell because of a wet floor in a public place, contact Jurewitz Law Group today.
Certain objects on the floor can cause a person to slip and fall when they are stepped on. A common example is a person stepping on a grape in a grocery store and slipping.
If the stairs, sidewalk, or other walkway proves hazardous and a person falls and sustains an injury as a result, our slip and fall law firm can help.
It is not uncommon for a carpet or rug to bunch up and create a tripping hazard. Falling after tripping over a loose carpet or rug can cause serious injuries.
If you’ve been hurt in a slip and fall accident, Jurewitz Law Group will take your case seriously. We will treat you with the dignity you deserve. We look at what happened, how it has affected your life, and whether a property owner failed to keep their space reasonably safe. That means reviewing the conditions, how long the hazard was there, and whether the situation could, and should, have been prevented. Whether your slip and fall accident occurred at a hotel, the Home Depot, Walmart, Costco, a restaurant, or other store, contact us today for your free case consultation.

Yes. However, you wouldn’t file a personal injury claim or lawsuit as you would if you were injured on someone else’s property. Instead, you might be able to file a workers’ compensation claim for benefits from your employer’s insurance company. An experienced Florida slip and fall accident attorney can discuss your legal options based on the facts of your case.
That depends on your financial situation. If you can afford it, pay all the bills you receive, and we can calculate the appropriate amount of compensation that can reimburse you for those costs. However, if paying those bills could land you in severe debt, you might be able to delay payment for a bit. Some medical providers will place a hold on your account until you resolve your case, so they don’t send anything to collections. You should consult with a lawyer to determine which options are available based on your specific situation.
You might think the business owner is to blame for your injuries. However, multiple other parties, including a negligent property owner, could be responsible for the accident. Common examples include:
Proving a property owner’s negligence is crucial in slip and fall cases.
