Filing a Law Suit after a Slip and Fall Accident in Broward County

In order for an individual to be awarded damages after a slip and fall accident, he and his attorney must prove by a preponderance of the evidence that the negligence of the property owner or its employees was the real or proximate cause of the accident. This means that the plaintiff is able to show that the other party is at least 51% responsible for the accident; he or she can receive compensation for the injuries sustained.

If an individual is awarded compensation in a personal injury claim, he or she can be compensated for medical costs, pain and suffering, mental anguish, lost wages, disfigurement, disability, emotional distress, and other damages he or she has been forced to endure due to the negligence of another party.

Slip and Fall Frequently Asked Questions

When someone’s negligence or harmful act causes a person to suffer physical or mental harm, a personal injury has occurred.

An act of negligence is a failure to meet the standards of care that are required by law to protect others from unreasonable risks of harm.

Every slip and fall case is unique. The value of a case is determined by many factors. The severity of your injuries; the length and degree of your disability; the amount of your medical bills; and whether or not there will be permanent injuries. Bear in mind, your case will be worth considerably less if you are partially responsible for the accident/injury.

Stop at the scene, move out of traffic, turn on flashers, and call the police.

Then, document the scene, get the other driver’s contact information, and call your insurance company.
