Premises Liability Lawyer in South Miami, FL

Florida premises liability law establishes the duty of care that property owners and managers owe to people who enter their premises — and the standard differs depending on whether the injured person was an invitee, a licensee, or a trespasser. Business invitees — customers, patrons, and guests — are owed the highest duty of care: the property owner must actively inspect for hazards, correct known dangerous conditions, and provide adequate warnings. Silva & Silva has handled premises liability cases across every type of property and every category of injury, from straightforward slip and fall claims to complex multi-defendant cases involving large commercial landlords, property management companies, and insurance carriers that use every available tactic to minimize what they pay.

Premises Liability Attorney in South Miami, FL

Filing a successful premises liability claim in Florida requires proving that the property owner knew or should have known about the dangerous condition, that they failed to take reasonable steps to correct or warn about it, and that the condition directly caused your injury. Property owners and their insurers routinely argue that the hazard was open and obvious, that the injured person was partially at fault, or that the condition existed too briefly to be discoverable. Silva & Silva knows these defenses and how to defeat them. Our attorneys conduct thorough site investigations, obtain maintenance records and prior incident reports, and retain expert witnesses when necessary to establish liability. There are no upfront costs — Silva & Silva handles every premises liability case on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless we recover compensation for you.
