This statute allows you to file your premises liability case in Florida’s courts. In addition, any lawyer you hire must be licensed to practice in Florida, even if you live elsewhere.

Who Is Responsible for Property Conditions at a Timeshare?
Determining responsibility for a timeshare accident can become tricky. A timeshare company may manage a property, but those who contract with it “own” the premises. In addition, particular conditions of the timeshare agreement, the involved parties’ insurance policies, and whether you rented the property directly from a timeshare company or a lessee can all affect your case.
Our lawyers can establish liability for your timeshare accident injury and pursue compensation from everyone at fault. If necessary, we can manage multiple claims against multiple parties.
Common Property Hazards and Dangers
The following conditions or actions may constitute negligence in a timeshare premises liability case:
- Cracked or broken flooring
- Water leaks
- Slippery surfaces
- Lack of fencing around pools and hot tubs
- Inadequate lighting in and around the premises
- Potholes and cracked sidewalks
- Failure to equip the property with smoke alarms and fire extinguishers
