When You're Hurt on Someone Else's Property, We Stand Up for You
Slip, trip, and fall accidents are common in stores, apartment complexes, parking lots, and workplaces-not just in Sarasota, but in cities across Florida like Miami, Tampa, Orlando, Jacksonville, and Fort Myers. Victims are often blamed for their own injuries, but property owners have a clear legal duty to keep their premises safe for everyone. Probinsky, Cole & Usquelis helps clients throughout the state prove negligence, fight for compensation, and get their medical bills and rehab costs covered-especially when insurers deny responsibility.
Where Premises Liability Matters
Store and Supermarket Slips
Wet floors, cluttered aisles, or poor maintenance lead to many injuries-our attorneys know what to look for and how to prove the store was at fault.
Apartment and Complex Falls
Broken stairs, loose railings, and unlit walkways are hazards in apartments from Sarasota to Jacksonville. We fight for renters and visitors.
Negligent Security Incidents
Assaults or attacks due to inadequate security? We handle cases statewide, from Miami to Tampa, when property owners failed to protect guests.
Falls at Work or in Hotels
Injuries at hotels, offices, or job sites-no matter where it happened in Florida, we gather evidence and demand fair compensation.
Simple Steps That Make a Difference in Your Case
Not reporting the accident right away or requesting an incident report.
Failing to take photos of the hazard and injuries immediately.
Skipping medical treatment-always see a doctor after a fall.
Giving statements to insurers without legal guidance.
Believing you cannot recover if partially at fault-Florida law may still allow you to recover damages.
Simple Steps That Make a Difference in Your Case
Report the incident to the manager or property owner and ask for a written report.
Take photos of the hazard, your injuries, and the surrounding area.
Get names and contacts of any witnesses-if Spanish is needed, our bilingual staff can help.
