What is a Florida property owner's responsibility?
A Florida property owner must keep his / her premises safe. They can do
so by fixing property hazards and warnings guests of any dangers. A property
owner is expected to offer a different level of care, depending on the guest.
Types of guests include the following:
Invitees
This includes any individual who enters onto a premise to purchase goods.
An example of such a property would be a grocery store. Property owners
who invite individuals onto their property are held to the highest level of care.
They must:
- Inspect their premises
- Remove hazards
- And provide warnings about potential issues
They can be held liable for dangers they "should have known about."
Licensees
This includes:
- Any friends
- Family members
- Social guests
- Or anyone invited to enter a premise for non-commercial reasons
An example of such a property would be a residential dwelling. These property
owners are also required to fix any hazards but are only liable for dangers
they knew about.
Trespassers
This includes anyone not authorized to be on your property at a given time.
You have the least responsibility to a trespasser. You are, however, not
allowed to set up hazardous areas intentionally to guard against trespassers.

Most premises liability cases involve proving that a property owner either
created a dangerous condition, knew of that dangerous condition and failed
to correct it, or that the condition existed long enough that the property
owner should have discovered and fixed it.

- Slip and falls
- Swimming pool accidents
- Amusement park accidents
- And assault as a result of negligent security
