Broken Bones After a Slip and Fall? What Victims in Miami, Palmetto Bay & Doral Need to Know

Common Types of Broken Bones in Slip and Fall Accidents

Slips, trips, and falls can lead to a variety of fractures depending on how and where someone lands:

• Wrist and Arm Fractures – Often caused by instinctively trying to catch yourself.
• Ankle or Foot Fractures – Can result from twisting on uneven flooring or slipping unexpectedly.
• Hip Fractures – A common and serious injury, especially for older adults.
• Spinal or Vertebral Fractures – Often occur from backward falls or stair collapses.
• Pelvic or Rib Fractures – Caused by impact with hard or jagged surfaces.

   

These injuries are painful, expensive, and often require long-term treatment or surgery.

When Property Owners Are Liable

Florida law holds property owners responsible when they fail to keep their premises safe. If a business, landlord, or management company neglects hazards like:

• Wet or slippery floors
• Broken stairs or handrails
• Poor lighting
• Loose carpeting
• Uneven pavement or flooring

When that negligence leads to a fall, they can be held liable for your injuries.

What to Do After a Slip and Fall With a Fracture

Protect your health and your legal claim by taking these important steps:

1. Seek immediate medical care to evaluate and document the injury.
2. Report the incident to the property owner or manager in writing.
3. Document the scene with photos or videos if you’re able.
4. Gather witness names and contact information.
5. Speak with a personal injury attorney before giving statements to insurers.
