Miami IsDangerous

Slip and fall accidents happen every day across Miami and Miami-Dade County — on poorly maintained commercial properties along Biscayne Boulevard and Flagler Street in Downtown Miami, in grocery stores and restaurants throughout Little Havana, Liberty City, and Hialeah, in neglected apartment complex walkways and parking lots throughout the metro, and in hotels, resorts, and entertainment venues. Property owners have a legal duty to maintain safe conditions for visitors. When they fail that duty, people get hurt. Florida's new 51% fault bar under HB 837 means property owners and their insurers have a new tool to try to eliminate claims entirely. TopDog fights to get you every dollar you deserve.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about personal injury law in Miami and how we can help you.

How long do I have to file a slip and fall lawsuit in Florida?
For injuries on or after March 24, 2023, you have 2 years under HB 837. For injuries before that date, the prior 4-year rule may apply. Evidence of the dangerous condition can disappear fast. Call us now.
What do I need to prove in a Florida slip and fall case?
You must show the property owner knew or should have known about the dangerous condition and failed to fix it or warn you. Florida property owners have the burden of proving they maintained the premises in a reasonably safe manner. Document the condition immediately — photos, an incident report, and witness information.
Can I recover if I slipped in a store or property in Miami?
Potentially, yes. Florida property owners must maintain reasonably safe conditions for lawful visitors. Miami's dense commercial corridors and hospitality properties generate significant slip and fall case volume. Fill out our form or call us now.
What is Florida's 51% fault bar and how does it affect my claim?
For incidents on or after March 24, 2023, if you are found more than 50% at fault for your own injury, you cannot recover any damages from the property owner under HB 837. Insurance companies will try to push your fault above 50% to eliminate your claim entirely. TopDog fights to establish what actually happened.
