Slip, Trip & Fall
Slip, Trip & Fall Accidents
Who is responsible to maintain proper safety standards and a reasonably safe environment from slips, trips, and falls?
Premises liability cases include both slip and fall accidents and trip and fall cases. When you have been injured in a slip and fall accident or a trip and fall accident, it can be a stressful and confusing time dealing with the medical providers and insurance companies. It is important to take immediate action because evidence such as video surveillance may only be available for a limited time.
The law firm of Bell & Bell, P.A. has offices in Deerfield Beach, and we practice in slip and fall injury cases. We help accident victims throughout all of South Florida. Contact our firm as soon as possible for your free injury evaluation. Don’t let a serious accident ruin your life forever. Instead, talk to a personal injury lawyer at our firm and learn more about your legal rights and your options.
Owners and managers have a duty to maintain a safe and secure property. Unfortunately, some entities fail to follow the proper safety standards which may lead to a direct injury to you. “Slip and fall” accidents, as well as “trip and fall” accidents, often occur due to a slippery surface, uneven floor or walkway, broken stairwell, or poorly-lit area. The owner of the property is generally responsible for observing the proper standards for a reasonably safe environment. Common slip and fall injuries include spinal injury (bulging or herniated discs), broken or sprained wrists and elbows, and torn or sprained knee ligaments.
Your recovery begins with a phone call to 954-783-2215
Steps you should take if you have a slip and fall or trip and fall accident:
- Call 911 to alert the authorities of the accident and to seek medical attention.
- Do not discuss the facts or liability with the premises manager; only give them your necessary identifying information.
- Additionally, be sure to ask for a copy of any incident report the institution may write.
- Collect the names and contact information from any witnesses to the accident. Take photographs of the scene if at all possible.
- Call Bell & Bell, P.A. for a free evaluation of your case. We are available 24/7 and can travel to your location if necessary.

Here’s what our happy clients had to say about our legal services:
I was helped by Brian after a terrible car accident, and he helped me every step of the way! The staff is super nice and very good with getting back to you, as well as answering any and all questions I had. I was coming out of high school and did not know anything about the legal system so I was beyond blessed that I had this law firm to handle everything . . .
I was involved in a car accident where my vehicle was totaled and I suffered back injuries. I did not know any accident attorneys personally so I turned to google to find Brian Bell. And I am so glad I did. Brian was professional, knowledgeable, and very easy to work with. He was able to settle my case very quickly and I was very pleased with the outcome. He is highly recommended.
Brian Bell is the most thorough attorney I have ever had the pleasure working with. He genuinely cares for all of his clients, and always goes the extra mile. He is quick to respond personally, with any questions or concerns you have. I moved across the state of Florida, and still seek his counsel! He is the only one I would trust to handle any cases for me. HIGHLY recommend.
I have had the honor of being represented by the law firm of Bell & Bell, and coming from a law enforcement background, across multiple agencies, I was duly impressed by the partners’ extensive knowledge of the law, their professionalism, but above all, the personal attention everyone at the firm afforded me. I felt like I was their ONLY client. You cannot put a price on that . . .
I have referred family members on multiple occasions to Chuck Bell, and he was extremely helpful in both educating us on the process as well as excellent results. Chuck came highly recommended.
