What is a Slip and Fall Accident?
Basically it is what it says A Slip or A Trip and then a Fall. The first thing that one has to focus on when one Slips, Trips and or Falls is where did it happen. This is a very important in a Slip and Fall Injury Case because it allows you to determine who owns the property in which you fell in and if someone should be liable for it. Then you must determine your status on the property. By status I mean were you invited onto the property by resident, a business owner, an event etc. This is very important to know because it determines the if you are an invitee onto the property or a trespassor. Once your status is determined then we find out what duty of care business or property owner has to provide you. The next step is what made you fall? Did the business or property owner have knowledge of the dangerous condition. In the alternative did the condition persist on the property enough time that the business owner knew or should have known about the dangerous hazard and failed to correct it. Finally,
Did that failure of not correcting a known hazard by the property or business owner cause you injury. If so to what extent. Did you miss time from work? Did you incur medical bills? Did you hire a person to help you around the house? These are just a few of the damages that one can recover from as a Slip and Fall incident. Let our lawfirm with a proven track record help you recover every single dollar you deserve.

Why is it that where you slip and fall important?
If one slips and falls in lets say a public park on a root from a tree there is a good likelyhood that you will not be able to recover for any damages that you sustain from that fall. Yet if you are in that same park and there is a pothole in the parking lot in which you accidently step in and fracture you ankle then you do have a case. Some of the places that often are breeding grounds for Slip and Fall injuries are Grocery Stores like Publix, Sedanos, Winn Dixie, Walmart, Target, 7 11 etc. Shopping Malls are also places that often people have slip and falls at. As well as schools, nightclubs, restaurants, shopping centers, offices, hospitals, sidewalks just to name a few.

What are different kinds of Slip and Fall Injury Cases?
1. A Slip and Fall from some sort of liquid on the floor. The liquid that is on the floor could be basically anything. In our office we have successfully worked cases were there was ice cream on the floor next to a food court in SawGrass mills mall, oil like liquid seeping from a near by trash can at an office building, bar b que sauce on the floor at one of Walt Disney Worlds Resort Hotel Food Courts, Pepsi 2 liter bottle display at Publix were a bottle fell and the liquid stayed on the floor for a substantial amount of time, At Doctors Hospital in were a cleaning crew left wax liquid on the floor coming out of an elevator. Sedanos Supermarket seafood coolers were leaking water, liquid from multiple drinks spilled on the stands of an auditorium in Seaworld. These are just a small sample of cases that our firm has worked on that a sort of liquid caused the Slip and Fall Injury Case.
2. Another thing that can cause a Slip Trip and Fall Injury is the flooring on the property. It could be so simple as having 2 different kinds of flooring that would trigger a missed step and cause a Slip Trip and Fall to the floor being lifted causing a Trip and Fall, a floor or parking lot with a hole or pothole can cause you to inadvertently stip into the whole and lose footing, lifted uneven sidewalks or pedestrian areas thaf can cause a person to Slip Trip and Fall. Some samples of cases our firm has worked on. Uneven driveway at a school to sidewalk over 2 inch difference caused severe injury to a Mother, Water and Sewer department worked on sidewalks and left them with a 2 inch separation causing fractured ankle to pedestrian. A outlet cap lifted in the center of an Outlet mall which caused a person to fall and fracture their elbow requiring surgery surgery, a parking lot of a popular shopping center left a pothole unmaintained for sometime which caused a patron inadvertently to step into the hole and tear his meniscus. A City in South Florida did some repairs at a ball park but left metal prongs up from the cement causing injury to a person's toe requiring surgery. A telephone company came onto a client's property and failed to cover a hole they opened for work causing the unsuspecting home owner to fall into it causing severe knee injury, Jiffy Lube a client was asked to come see his vehicle in the work bay and the staff failed to cover the work holes with the provided netting the result our client fell into the hole causing severe head trauma. These are just a small sample of Slip and Fall Injury Cases we have handled.
3. Another kind of Slip Trip and Fall case is the tripping over unmaintained debris / itens in a market or store. This happens more often than one thinks. A couple of examples of cases we have handled a person was shopping at Walmart in the shoe section was looking at the shoes in the rack area and trips and falls over numerous shoes that were left on the floor. The fall caused the person to suffer severe head trauma which needed immediate emergency attention. Another Slip Trip and Fall Case happened at a Target. At the Target our client was walking during the Christmas Holidays and Slip Tripped and Fell over numerous toys left on the ground by countless children playing with them. This fall caused a severe meniscus tear to our client's knee requiring immediate surgery.
These are just a few Slip and Fall Injury Cases relating to debris on the floor that our firm has worked on for our clients.
4. Lack of Hazard Warning Signs when a cleaning crew is working or has recently worked in the area.
One case we handled recently with this specific issue was in a supermarket in Miami. Our client walked into the store walked down the isle and slips and falls. Immediately he realized that the floor was recently mopped. He looks up and down the isles and notices no warning signs. Three isles down were the maintenance worker was cleaning there was a sign. This injury caused severe injury to our client's knee requiring surgery. Office and Shopping custodial services have a heightened level of care since they use liquids to clean the floor that are very slippery when wet. They must post signs and deter patron traffic into those areas.
5. Weather Conditions cause dangerous hazards in businesses.
In South Florida we always have heavy rain storms during the year. If your business knows that people come into your establishment with wet rain gear or umbrellas you must have things to prevent that water from migrating down your hallways. This can be prevented with umbrella bags and custodial staff at each entrance to secure any water from becoming a hazard and to put an abundance of signs to inform the public to be careful.

Florida has always been known for it's beautiful beaches and amazing tourist destinations but what people often don't know is that because it rains often in Florida people tend to fall from slippery surfaces. The people tend to fall in areas that are not properly maintained. The Florida laws governing such falls at Supermarkets, Shopping Centers, Apartment Complexes, Amusement Parks, Nightclubs ( Publix Target Walt Disney Universal Studios Sedanos Home Depot Lowes Sawgrass Mills Mall Dolphin Mall Outlet Mall South Beach Miami Beach Orlando Tampa Palm Beach Ft Lauderdale ) all state basically the same thing. The laws explains several elements that have to be fulfilled before your able hold a commercial establishment liable for injuries from a slip and fall. An experienced Slip and Fall Attorney in Florida knows exactly what needs to be demonstrated to get you the maximum amount for your damages. First the experienced Slip and Fall Attorneys at the Cordero Benages Davies Lawfirm know they have to clarify what the injured person was doing at the place that they slipped tripped and fell. This is called what status does the person injured have on the property. The two most common are 1. Business Invitee or 2. Trespassor. A business invitee is determined by what the person was doing at the business or establishment he fell at. For example, if a person goes to a Publix Supermarket and is walking down an aisle looking for his favorite brand of frozen pizza when out of no where he or she slips trips and falls. The person while on the floor immediately looks down and observes water comming from one of the freezers. The water looks like it is migrating slowly from the cooler at a very slow rate taking a substantial time for the water in which the person slipped on to puddle up and become a dangerous hazard. Moreover, the water that made the person slip trip and fall looked like it had been stepped on by countless other customers throughout the day. When a person is at a store that is open to the public and is there for the intended reason the store is open for he is a Business Invitee as stated above. When a person is a Business Invitee a Business Owner like Publix Target Home Depot Lowes Walmart owes them a very high standard of care. This standard of care is one that a business owner should do everything reasonable to keep it's location free from known dangers and hazards or dangers and hazards that they should have known if they would do periodic checks of their premises to insure none exist. In the before mentioned example it was a Publix Supermarket Freezer that had been leaking for a substantial amount of time. A reasonable store owner would have had their staff do periodic safety checks to insure all the aisles were clear and safe from said hazards. This is a classic failure in maintenance by a Supermarket that could have been prevented a serious injury from a Slip Trip and Fall from a leaking freezer or from standing water that could have been spilled by a previous customer. Because the business owner didn't keep his location / premises in a safe condition and the business invitee fell they are held liable or they are negligent for the persons fall and are responsible for his injuries. The other example of a person's status will be if the person is an uninvited guest or in legal terms a trespasser. A Slip and Fall Attorney from the Cordero Benages Davies Lawfirm is trained to distinguish between a business invitee and a trespasser. Furthermore, they are skilled in determining which duty of care is owed to each. A good example of a trespasser would be a person that wonders into an apartment complex were he knows no one and has zero business at said apartment complex. In complete difference to the business invitee an owner owes little to no duty to a trespasser on it's property. It is the little things that make a difference in premise liability law.
