Seek Compensation for Medical Bills and More

Whether you slipped shopping at the grocery store or tripped while walking across a friend’s apartment complex, we could fight for compensation for your economic and non-economic losses.

Economic Damages for a Slip and Fall

Economic damages are financial losses, such as medical expenses, lost income, and out-of-pocket costs associated with your slip and fall accident. If your slip, trip, or fall caused catastrophic injuries such as bone fractures, spinal damage, or traumatic brain injury, we can also seek compensation for future medical and life care costs.

We also consult with economic experts to include diminished future income, such as lost salary, work hours, and benefits. Our goal is to make sure you have the compensation you need to secure your future after an accident that wasn’t your fault.

Non-Economic Slip and Fall Damages

Non-economic losses refer to the physical, mental, and emotional distress you experience because of the slip and fall accident. While these damages cannot be quantified using receipts or invoices, they can still cause real harm to your quality of life and well-being.

If your injuries prevent you from performing daily activities or doing hobbies you once enjoyed, you should be compensated for the loss of enjoyment and diminished quality of life.

Our attorneys know how to establish the extent of your economic and non-economic losses and fight for maximum compensation. We won’t back down from a fight, even against large corporations and pushy insurance companies.

Find Out What Meldon Law Can Do for Your Slip and Fall Claim

Our attorneys offer free legal consultations for slip and fall accident victims. During your initial consultation, we review your case and explain your legal options. If you decide to sign on with us, we immediately inform the insurance company and become the point of contact for your case.

Building a Compelling Case

While you focus on healing from your injuries, our attorneys obtain evidence, such as witness statements, videos of the accident, and incident reports, to establish the cause of your slip and fall. We then file a claim with the insurance carrier for the property owner or another responsible party.

Negotiating a Fair Settlement

Most businesses and property owners carry premises liability insurance to cover such incidents. We know how to negotiate with insurance companies to secure a fair settlement for your injuries. If we cannot achieve a reasonable resolution during negotiations, we are prepared to take your case to trial.

Learn Who Is Responsible for Your Slip and Fall Incident

In Florida, property owners have a responsibility to maintain safe premises for legal visitors and guests. If they fail to address known dangerous conditions like uneven walkways or slippery surfaces, they can be liable for injuries that occur as a result.

Meldon Law knows how to determine who is liable and hold them accountable. While a property owner is often the culprit, other parties may be involved, including:

• Landlords
• Property managers
• Business owners
• Third parties

You deserve justice and compensation for a slip, trip, or fall caused by someone else’s careless behavior. We have the knowledge, experience, and skill to identify the responsible party and hold them fully accountable.

Get Prompt Legal Assistance From Attorneys Who Care

Time is of the essence when filing your slip and fall case. Florida Statutes § 95.11 gives injured parties two years to file a lawsuit, but you often have less time to file an insurance claim. Evidence from a slip and fall accident can also degrade quickly. CCTV and security footage can be overwritten, and dangerous conditions can be repaired while you receive treatment for your injuries.

When you contact Meldon Law right after the accident, we can take moves to preserve and gather time-sensitive evidence immediately. You can focus on recovering from your injuries while we begin taking witness statements and building a case for your damages.
