Slip and fall lawyer Florida: your deadline

The first thing a Florida slip and fall lawyer checks is the clock. You have two years from the day you fell to file, under Fla. Stat. § 95.11.

Talks with the owner's insurer do not stop that clock. Only a lawsuit filed in court does.

How Florida splits the blame

Florida lets you collect if you were half to blame or less. Above that, the claim is barred. The rule is in Fla. Stat. § 768.81.

Say a jury values the case at $40,000 and finds you 20 percent to blame. You would receive $32,000.

Public property in Florida

A fall on government property needs written notice first: three years under Fla. Stat. § 768.28. Miss it and the claim against the government can be gone.

What your Florida case is worth

The value comes from your bills, lost pay, how long you hurt, and the fault split above.

Answer four quick questions; the Florida rule is already set.

What is my fall case worth?

How this number is built

Bills plus lost pay, plus an assumed pain allowance of one and a half to five times the bills by injury. Then the state's fault rule. Florida bars recovery only if you were more than half to blame. Policy limits, liens and future care are left out.

How Florida fall lawyers charge

Florida Bar Rule 4-1.5 sets the usual top fee in an injury case at 33 1/3 percent of a recovery up to $1 million. You pay nothing up front, and no fee unless you win.
