Maitland Slip & Fall Lawyer

Slip and fall, or “premises liability,” accidents occur whenever you slip, trip, or fall on someone else’s property, whether it is the result of a spill or wet floor left unattended, an uneven floor, a cracked sidewalk, poor lighting, or any other undisclosed and unreasonably dangerous hazard or condition. Property owners and operators owe a duty of care to visitors, and when they violate that duty by creating or allowing an unreasonably dangerous condition to persist, they are responsible for any injury that results.

Common Types of Slip & Fall Accidents

As a visitor, you are owed a duty of care by anyone responsible for managing and operating the premises you are visiting. Homeowners, apartment renters, building owners, store operators, construction companies, and anyone else responsible for maintaining the premises you visit must keep that area appropriately safe.
