What's at Stake
We're sorry this happened. Within hours of a fall, the property's manager has filled out a report and its insurer has opened a file. Here's what you're up against.
Store and building cameras often record over themselves within days or weeks. Without it, the owner's version can be the only version.
For spills in a business, Florida makes you prove the owner knew or should have known about the hazard. That evidence has to be gathered fast.
The property's insurer may ask what you were looking at or what shoes you wore. Those answers get used to blame you.
Most Florida injury claims from falls on or after March 24, 2023 must be filed within two years. Falls on government property need notice first.
Don't face the property owner's insurer alone.

You shouldn't have to prove a store's negligence while you're trying to heal. That's our job.
Why You Need a Lawyer
Slip and fall accidents happen across Orlando every day: wet floors in grocery stores and big-box stores, spilled drinks at restaurants and bars, slick pool decks at hotels and resorts along International Drive, broken stairs and poor lighting at apartment complexes, and cracked sidewalks and potholes in parking lots. Afternoon rain makes entryways and walkways even more dangerous.
Property owners and their insurers fight these claims hard. They'll argue you weren't paying attention, you wore the wrong shoes, or the hazard was “open and obvious.” For spills and other transitory substances in a business, Florida law (Fla. Stat. § 768.0755) requires you to prove the business knew or should have known about the hazard — for example, because it was there long enough or happened regularly.
When you hire ANT Law Firm, our Orlando slip and fall lawyers move quickly to preserve surveillance footage, incident reports, cleaning and inspection logs, and witness statements. We work with your doctors to document injuries that often get worse over time — hip and wrist fractures, back and neck injuries, and traumatic brain injuries. And we prepare every case for a jury, because that's what makes insurers pay fairly.
Cases We Handle
Falls happen in stores, restaurants, hotels, apartments, parking lots and at work. These pages cover the situations and injuries that need extra attention.

We Try Cases
The property's insurer is deciding right now whether you'll settle cheap. Here's what happens when an insurer guesses wrong.

Get My Free Case ReviewFlorida Law
Florida has specific rules for falls in businesses, and several deadlines changed in March 2023. Here's what matters for your case.
Proving the owner knew. Under Fla. Stat. § 768.0755, if you slip on a transitory substance — water, a spilled drink, produce — in a business, you must prove the business had actual or constructive knowledge of it. Constructive knowledge can be shown when the hazard was there long enough that the business should have found it, or when the condition happened regularly and was foreseeable.
Your status on the property.Owners owe the highest duty to invited guests like customers and hotel guests: keep the property reasonably safe and warn of hidden dangers they know about. The duty is lower for uninvited visitors. Saying a hazard was “open and obvious” doesn't always end a case, because owners still have to maintain their property.
Modified comparative fault.Since 2023, your recovery is reduced by your share of the blame, and if you're found more than 50% at fault you recover nothing. Insurers know this, so they look for reasons to blame you. Evidence is how we push back.
Falls at work.Workers' compensation is usually your only claim against your own employer, but you may also have a claim against a property owner or contractor who isn't your employer. See our workplace fall page.

Why ANT Law Firm
After a slip and fall, property insurers offer as little as they can get away with. We build every slip and fall case for trial, so insurers have to take your claim seriously — and you pay nothing unless we win.
Straight Answers
Nothing up front. ANT Law Firm handles slip and fall cases on a contingency fee: our fee is a percentage of what we recover for you, and if we don't win, you don't owe us a fee. We'll explain the exact percentage in writing during your free case review.
You must show the property owner knew or should have known about the dangerous condition and didn't fix it or warn you. For spills and other transitory substances in a business, Fla. Stat. § 768.0755 requires proof of actual or constructive knowledge — for example, that the hazard was there long enough to be found, or happened regularly. Surveillance footage, cleaning logs, incident reports and witnesses are key, and our attorneys move quickly to preserve them.
As soon as you can. Surveillance footage, inspection logs and witness memories can disappear within days. Most Florida injury claims from falls on or after March 24, 2023 must be filed within two years, and falls on government property require written notice first. The sooner you call our Orlando slip and fall attorneys, the more evidence we can save.
Get medical care, even if your injuries seem minor. Report the fall to the manager or owner and ask for a written incident report. Photograph the hazard, the area, the lighting, your shoes and your injuries. Get witness names and numbers. Don't give a recorded statement to the property's insurer. Then call an Orlando slip and fall lawyer at (407) 777-8888.
It depends on your injuries, your medical costs now and in the future, your lost income, how the injuries affect your daily life, the available insurance and the strength of the evidence against the owner. We'll give you an honest assessment during your free case review. Be wary of anyone who quotes a number before seeing your records. Past results don't guarantee a similar outcome.
Yes, as long as you were not more than 50% at fault. Under Florida's modified comparative negligence law, your recovery is reduced by your share of the fault. For example, if your damages are $100,000 and you're found 20% at fault, you'd recover $80,000. If you're found more than 50% at fault, you recover nothing. Owners often try to shift blame, which is why evidence matters.
Many claims resolve within several months to a year after treatment stabilizes, without a lawsuit. If the insurer won't pay fairly and we file suit, litigation in Orange County or another Central Florida court can add a year or more. We'll give you a realistic timeline once we know your injuries and the evidence.
It's a good idea. The adjuster works for the property owner, not you. They may ask for a recorded statement, request broad medical authorizations or offer a quick settlement before you know how serious your injuries are. An experienced premises liability attorney protects your rights and is ready to take your case to a jury if the insurer won't pay fairly.
