Slip & Fall claims in Boca Raton

Marble, pavers, and polished tile are everywhere in Boca's retail and restaurant spaces. All of them are slick wet. Add a valet drop in a rain shower, or a sprinkler head aimed at a walkway. Premises liability in Florida asks what the business knew about the condition and whether it acted reasonably, so the useful evidence is the boring kind: the sweep log, the maintenance ticket, the camera covering the entrance, the employee who says somebody had already complained about that spot. Get the incident report before you leave, and ask in writing that the video be preserved. The deadline is two years.

Frequently asked questions

Where do I get a crash report in Boca Raton?

Boca Raton Police handle crashes inside the city, and the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office covers unincorporated areas just outside it. Florida Highway Patrol usually takes I-95 and the Turnpike. The report goes to FLHSMV and can be requested through the state crash portal or from the agency that responded. Get the case number before the scene is cleared.

Which court would handle a Boca Raton injury case?

Palm Beach County, in the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit. The main courthouse is in West Palm Beach, and the county runs a south county courthouse closer to Boca. Smaller civil claims go to county court and larger ones to circuit court, and where yours belongs depends on the amount, which is a question for a licensed Florida attorney. We are not a law firm.

I was hit near the FAU campus. Who writes that report?

Boca Raton Police usually work the city streets around the campus, and Florida Atlantic University has its own police department for what happens on university property. The line between the two is not always obvious from inside a car. Ask which agency is taking the report before you leave. Then request it through FLHSMV or from that agency once it's filed.

How long do I have to file an injury claim in Florida?

In Florida, the deadline is generally 2 years from the date of the accident. Reduced from 4 to 2 years by HB 837 (2023). Wrongful death 2 years. Medical 2 years. Deadlines are strict — the sooner you act, the more options you have.
