## How to Prove a Slip and Fall Claim

To hold a property owner liable, you generally must prove that a property owner or business failed to use reasonable care in maintaining the property and that this negligence **caused your injuries**. Depending on where the accident occurred, you may need to establish that:

- A dangerous condition existed on the property.
- The property owner or business knew, or should have known, about the hazard.
- They failed to repair the condition or provide an adequate warning.
- The unsafe condition directly caused your injuries and resulting damages.

For accidents occurring in businesses, you must establish that the business had actual or constructive knowledge of the dangerous condition. **Constructive knowledge** may be shown if the hazard existed long enough that it should have been discovered or if the condition was foreseeable.

## Identifying Liable Parties in a Slip and Fall Case

Liability often depends on who owned, occupied, managed, or maintained the property where your accident happened. Multiple entities may **share responsibility** depending on the circumstances. Potentially liable parties in a slip and fall accident could include:

- Commercial property owners
- Retail stores
- Restaurants
- Hotels and resorts
- Apartment complexes
- Property management companies
- Homeowners
- Maintenance or cleaning contractors

Florida follows a **modified comparative negligence system**. If you are found partially responsible for your accident, your damages may be reduced by your percentage of fault. Insurers often use this to deflect blame, which is why having experienced legal counsel can be so important.

## Deadlines for Filing a Slip and Fall Claim in Florida

In Florida, the statute of limitations for negligence-based personal injury actions is established under [Florida Statutes § 95.11](https://www.leg.state.fl.us/statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&URL=0000-0099/0095/Sections/0095.11.html). It gives you**two years** to file most slip and fall lawsuits.

If you do not file your lawsuit within this deadline, you may lose your right to recover compensation, regardless of the strength of your claim. Certain exceptions may apply, but they are limited and depend on the specific facts of the case. 

Because evidence can disappear and witnesses’ memories can fade, it is important to act promptly. We can manage your claim and help you avoid common errors, such as missing important deadlines.
