A wet floor without a sign. A broken staircase railing. A cracked parking lot. These aren't just accidents — they're the result of negligence. When a property owner fails to maintain a safe environment and someone gets hurt, they can and should be held legally responsible.
At Ville Law, Jeffrey Ville represents slip and fall victims across Melbourne and Brevard County, fighting to recover compensation from negligent property owners, businesses, landlords, and government entities whose unsafe conditions caused your injury.
Florida slip and fall cases require showing that the property owner knew, or should have known, about the dangerous condition and failed to fix it or warn you. This is why acting quickly is critical. Evidence like surveillance video, incident reports, and witness statements can disappear fast.
As Melbourne's premises liability lawyers, we handle slip and fall cases throughout Brevard County including retail stores, restaurants, apartment complexes, parking lots, and government properties.
What if I was partially at fault for the slip and fall?
Florida's comparative negligence law means you may still recover compensation even if you were partially at fault — though your damages may be reduced proportionally. An experienced attorney can help evaluate your case.
How long do I have to file a slip and fall lawsuit in Florida?
In Florida, you generally have two years from the date of your injury to file a slip and fall lawsuit. Contact an attorney as soon as possible to protect your rights and preserve evidence.
