One of the scariest aspects of slip and fall cases is that they may occur virtually anywhere. As if that was not enough, they are among the most dangerous and widespread forms of personal injury cases. In fact, the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) states that floors—as well as flooring materials—play a contributing factor in over 2 million fall injuries every year.
These cases are even more troublesome for individuals over the age of 65, as studies recorded by the National Floor Safety Institute (NFSI) have shown that one in three individuals in that age range will experience a fall, with half of them falling more than once. No matter what age you are, a slip and fall case can only be a step away. If you are injured in a slip and fall, you may be entitled to financial compensation for the ensuing injuries and subsequent financial and mental anguish you may be facing.
If you have ever slipped and fallen in any capacity on another person’s property, the Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine will be there to guide you through the legal process. The state of Florida has a four-year statute of limitations on personal injury cases. If you wait to file your lawsuit past the limit, your case may become nullified. The sooner you call, the sooner we can get started.

Actionable Causes for Slip and Fall Cases
As a slip and fall case can happen anywhere, the legal implications lie in the realm of negligence. If an owner or employee of a property acts negligently at their job, a slip and fall case can occur, and the legal implications can be just as wide-ranging. When bringing a case against the responsible parties, certain fault factors that may come up include:
- Neglected flooring, which may be upraised and cause the victim to trip
- Spills on the ground
- Poor construction
- Potholes or other concrete defects
- Loose cords laying around
