Slip and fall accidents are among the most common personal injury cases in Hillsborough County. Poorly maintained commercial properties along Tampa's retail corridors, wet floors in restaurants and grocery stores in East Tampa and Ybor City, crumbling parking lots near apartment complexes in West Tampa and Town 'n' Country, and neglected walkways across the county create dangerous conditions every year. Property owners have a legal duty to maintain safe premises. When they fail, people get hurt. Insurance companies in Florida often use delay, denial, and Florida's constructive knowledge standard to shift blame onto injured people. TopDog fights to get you every dollar you deserve.
From commercial properties on Nebraska Avenue in East Tampa to retail centers along Dale Mabry Highway to apartment complexes in West Tampa and Ybor City — we know where dangerous conditions accumulate in Tampa and who is responsible for them. Tampa General Hospital and St. Joseph's Hospital treat serious fall injuries regularly. Those accidents cause real damage to Tampa families and we fight to get injured people the care and money they deserve.
Property owners and their insurers across Hillsborough County often try to argue that dangerous conditions were your fault or that you failed to prove their knowledge of the hazard. Florida's modified comparative negligence rules give them yet another tool. We know how to leverage the justice system in Hillsborough County courts to fight back and prove otherwise.
IMPORTANT FLORIDA LEGAL INFORMATION — SLIP AND FALL
Statute of Limitations: 2 years from the date of injury for incidents occurring on or after March 24, 2023.
Property Owner Liability: Under Florida Statute 768.0755, for transitory foreign substances you must show the property owner had actual or constructive knowledge of the dangerous condition. Document conditions immediately.
Government Property: Claims against a government entity may require written notice within 18 months of the incident. The waiting window to file suit is 180 days.
Comparative Negligence: Modified comparative negligence. More than 50% fault bars recovery.
This is a brief summary of commonly applied laws in the jurisdiction. There are often different laws that apply to different circumstances. Once you hire TopDog, your attorney will advise you on the applicable laws.
Insurance companies may make early low offers because they count on most people not knowing what their case is actually worth. They may use Florida's modified fault rules to argue you were mostly responsible for your own fall. TopDog Law and its co-counsel fight for the full recovery.
