Slip-and-fall accidents are responsible for billions of dollars in medical costs each year. These accidents can cause a variety of injuries, including fractures, damage to internal organs, traumatic brain injury, and injury to a person’s legs and hips. Slip and falls can occur on all kinds of premises and in all kinds of places. We have had personal injury clients in the past who have hurt themselves by tripping over things, like a parking curb that is out of place or loose. We have also seen people who have tripped on or over uneven pathways and dangerous walkways. A dangerous condition in a store or in a private home can cause a person to slip and fall. While some slip and fall accidents are just accidents, some occur because the owner or possessor of the property was negligent. If you have been hurt after slipping and falling on someone else’s property in Florida, you may be unsure whether you can recover compensation for your injuries. Therefore, you should seek legal advice from Personal Injury & Accident Law Center, P.A. as soon as you can.
