Who can be held responsible for a catastrophic spinal cord injury?

Liability depends on the circumstances of the accident. Multiple parties can be held responsible under Florida law: 1. Negligent drivers in motor vehicle collisions. 2. Property owners under premises liability if a slip or fall was caused by unsafe conditions. 3. Manufacturers of defective medical devices or faulty equipment. Florida follows a modified comparative fault system under Fla. Stat. § 768.81, meaning you can recover damages as long as you are not more than 50% at fault. Jeffrey S. Altman and the team at The Altman Law Firm investigate these complex scenarios to identify all liable parties.
