Liberty City Parking Lot Slip or Trip and Fall Accidents

Liberty City is a neighborhood in Miami. Once known as "Model City," the community was started in 1937 after the Liberty Square housing project was constructed. Liberty City has a population of 20,831 residents, with a median age of 38 years.

Parking lot owners and operators must keep their property safe for visitors. Accidents and injuries may happen when appropriate steps aren’t taken to ensure the safety of people on their property. Some of the most frequent hazards in a Liberty City parking lot:

  • Cracks or breaks in parking lot asphalt
  • Potholes or dips
  • Pooling water caused by lack of drainage
  • Unmarked elevation changes, such as speedbumps, islands, or ramps
  • Broken wheel stops
  • Slippery parking lot paint
  • Drainage grates or utility covers that aren’t even with walking surfaces
  • Curbs hidden by bushes or overgrown foliage
  • Dim or missing lights
  • Uneven sidewalks or walking surfaces
Hurt in a Liberty City Parking Lot Fall?

While not every slip, trip, or fall in a Liberty City parking lot results in significant injury, some accidents do. Regardless of how severe your injuries are, here are some steps to take after a Liberty City parking lot accident.

  • Notify management: You should report the accident to the owner or operator of the Liberty City parking lot or the business establishment you were visiting. It's important to get written documentation that you reported the accident, so ask for copies of any forms completed by the staff.
  • Physical documentation: Physical documentation of the accident scene can be helpful. Use your phone to take pictures or videos of where the accident happened. Get pictures of anything that may have contributed to the accident, such as cracked pavement or protruding drainage cover. Taking photos or videos from different distances and angles may also be helpful. Look around for any surveillance cameras with video footage of the accident.
  • Write it down: Take down the contact information of anyone who saw the accident or any employees you spoke with. It's also helpful to write down anything you can remember from the accident so you don't forget these details over time.
  • Seek medical care: Getting immediate medical help may be an obvious step when badly hurt. Yet even if you feel ok after a parking lot slip, trip, or fall, it's still a good idea to get checked out by a medical professional as soon as you can. Injuries aren't always obvious when an accident happens. However, if you sprained a wrist, fractured a bone, or hit your head, you might not realize you're hurt for hours or days later. If you wait to get checked out, you risk making your injuries worse. When you delay seeking medical help, it can be more challenging to show you've been seriously hurt if you decide to pursue compensation later.
  • Understand legal rights: Speak with a best Liberty City parking lot injury lawyer to learn more about your rights when you've been badly hurt. You could seek compensation for your injuries if you can prove the parking lot owner or operator didn't maintain a safe property.
