Slip and fall lawyer in Miami

Slip and fall lawyer Miami: where falls happen

Falls here start in these places: wet tile in condo lobbies, hotel pool decks, grocery stores after a storm, and restaurant floors.

For a fall on county property, Miami-Dade takes claims by phone through its Teleclaim line, 1-877-632-7475, and gives you a claim number.

Your deadline in Miami

Against a private owner you have two years under Fla. Stat. § 95.11.

Against the city or county, the claim follows Miami-Dade County risk management. Call the same week so nothing is missed.

Before you leave the property

Call us first, even from the parking lot; the review is free. Then get an incident report written while you are still there. Photograph the spot, your shoes and any missing warning sign. Take the names of people who saw it, then see a doctor that day.

You can recover if your share of the fault is 50 percent or less. At 51 percent or more you get nothing.
