Premises Liability Law in Boca Raton
Premises liability law in Florida, as in other states, pertains to the legal responsibility of property owners or occupiers for injuries or accidents that occur on their premises. The basic premise is that property owners have a duty to maintain their property in a reasonably safe condition and to warn visitors of known hazards.
Here are key points related to premises liability law in Florida:
Property owners owe a duty of care to people who enter their property. The level of care owed depends on the visitor’s status. Florida law generally recognizes three categories of visitors
Negligence Standard:
To establish a premises liability claim, the injured party usually needs to show that the property owner was negligent in maintaining the property. Negligence involves proving that the property owner knew or should have known about a hazardous condition and failed to address it.
Comparative Negligence:
Florida follows a pure comparative negligence system. This means that if the injured party is found partially at fault for their injuries, their compensation may be reduced by the percentage of fault attributed to them.
Statute of Limitations:
In Florida, there is a limited time frame (statute of limitations) within which a premises liability lawsuit must be filed. The specific time period is 2 years.
