Orlando’s bustling tourism industry, rapid commercial development, and variable weather conditions contribute to numerous premises liability incidents. Property owners must maintain safe conditions, but negligence is unfortunately common. Some typical causes include:
Wet floors, uneven surfaces, and unmarked changes in elevation create dangerous conditions for visitors, especially in Orlando's hotels, theme parks, and shopping centers.
Insufficient lighting, broken locks, or lack of security personnel can lead to assaults and other crimes that could have been prevented with proper precautions.
Neglected repairs, broken handrails, crumbling steps, or malfunctioning elevators can cause serious injuries to unsuspecting visitors.
Failure to post warning signs about known dangers like wet floors, construction zones, or other hazardous conditions puts visitors at unnecessary risk.
Florida's sudden rainstorms can create slippery surfaces that property owners must promptly address to prevent injuries.
Properties that fail to meet local building codes and safety regulations put visitors at risk and create clear liability for owners.
When property owners and managers fail in their duty to maintain safe premises, Attorney Matthew R. Boren helps hold them accountable for the injuries their negligence causes.

Compensation for physical pain, emotional distress, and decreased quality of life resulting from your injuries.

In Florida, the statute of limitations for premises liability claims is generally four years from the date of the injury. However, certain exceptions may apply, such as cases involving government entities or wrongful death, which have shorter deadlines. It’s crucial to consult with an attorney as soon as possible after your injury to ensure you don’t miss any important deadlines.
Florida follows a comparative negligence system, meaning you can still recover damages even if you were partially at fault for your injury. However, your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you are found to be 20% responsible for your accident and your damages total $100,000, you would receive $80,000. Our attorneys will work to minimize any assignment of fault to maximize your recovery.
You may be entitled to various types of compensation, including medical expenses (past and future), lost wages, pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life, and in some cases, punitive damages. If your injury resulted in permanent disability, you might also receive compensation for ongoing care needs, home modifications, and reduced earning capacity. Every case is unique, and the specific damages you can recover will depend on the circumstances of your accident.
To establish negligence in a premises liability case, you must prove that: 1) the property owner owed you a duty of care; 2) they breached that duty by failing to maintain safe premises or warn of hazards; 3) this breach directly caused your injury; and 4) you suffered actual damages as a result. Evidence such as photographs of the hazardous condition, incident reports, witness statements, surveillance footage, maintenance records, and expert testimony can help prove your case. Our attorneys know how to gather and present this evidence effectively.
While you’re not legally required to have an attorney, premises liability cases can be complex and challenging to navigate alone. Property owners and insurance companies have teams of lawyers working to minimize their liability. Having an experienced attorney on your side helps level the playing field. At Matthew R. Boren’s firm, we handle all aspects of your case, from investigation to settlement negotiations or trial, allowing you to focus on recovery while we fight for the compensation you deserve.
