Although a trip and fall can be dangerous for anyone, they are particularly dangerous for the brittle bones of the elderly. Any slip and fall can cause serious injuries. If a property owner was to blame or in any way negligent, victims of a fall can be compensated for losses in some cases.
People often feel stupid after they fall. After all, they think, “why didn’t I see that?” It’s because you do not have eyes on your feet, and you look forward, not down, when you walk. Architects and engineers usually carefully design walkways to be safe, and incorporate visual aids such as planters, lights, bright paint and other warning devices. When not properly designed, cleaned or maintained, it is easy to unintentionally lose your footing. So don’t feel stupid, it may not have been your fault.

When people slip or trip and fall, in a store or any other public place, they are often left wondering what steps to take next. Many people think that just because they fell, that’s enough to hold the property owner responsible for their injuries, but that could not be farther from the truth.
In principle, accidents do not just happen. Accidents happen because of carelessness, recklessness, ignorance, or negligence. There are many rules and standards that govern property ownership and maintenance. When a store owner or business entity fails to follow these rules and standards, an accident is sure to happen, and someone is bound to become injured. But that person, as the claimant or plaintiff, still must prove every aspect of their claim, including the fault of the responsible party.
To prevail on a claim for premises liability, which is the umbrella under which slip and fall or trip and fall incidents fall under, you must prove that there was a dangerous condition that existed on a property that the owner knew about or, in the exercise of reasonable care, should have known about and failed to fix or correct. Many times, the victim of a slip and fall will not even know what caused them to the fall, let alone how the condition was created, how long it had been there or other important details. Other times, embarrassed by the fall, the injured person will simply dust themselves off and go home hoping that no one saw it, only to find out later that there are seriously injured. There are several immediate steps you can take to protect your rights following a fall.
Speaking to a qualified personal injury attorney with experience in handling similar slip and fall or trip and fall claims is the best way to protect your rights. In Florida, while you have 4 years from the date of an accident to either file a lawsuit or settle your claim, hiring a personal injury attorney soon after your fall is probably the smartest thing you can do.
