The Robertson Law Firm
Injured on Unsafe Property? We Help You Stand Back Up.
A fall may happen in a second — but the consequences can last for months, years, or even a lifetime. When your injury was caused by a property owner’s failure to maintain a safe environment, you may be entitled to compensation. At The Robertson Law Firm, we help clients across Sarasota, Tampa, St. Petersburg, and Southwest Florida pursue justice after slip, trip, and fall accidents.
With over 36 years of experience, Attorney Bill Robertson delivers the legal skill and personal care your case deserves.
You focus on healing. We’ll focus on holding the negligent party accountable.
What We Handle: Types of Fall Injury Claims
Falls can happen anywhere — but when they result from unsafe conditions that should have been prevented, the law is on your side. We handle premises liability claims involving:
- Slippery floors with no warning signage
- Uneven sidewalks or cracked pavement
- Broken handrails or poorly maintained stairs
- Loose carpeting or cords in walkways
- Poor lighting in hallways, stairwells, or parking lots
- Obstructions or hazards left in public spaces
- Falls in retail stores, apartment complexes, hotels, or government property
We work quickly to document the conditions that led to your fall, before evidence disappears or is cleaned up.
What to Do After a Slip or Trip and Fall in Southwest Florida
If you’ve been hurt in a fall, your first instinct might be to shake it off. But taking the right steps can make a significant difference in your case:
Seek medical attention immediately
Get checked even if you think the injury is minor.
Report the fall
Notify the property manager, store, or authority in charge.
Take photos
If you’re able, capture the hazard and surrounding conditions.
Get witness information
Their account can help support your claim later.
Speak to a personal injury attorney early
Fall claims are often contested, and time-sensitive evidence matters.
We’ll investigate your case, gather expert input, and deal with the property owner’s insurance company — so you don’t have to.
What Compensation May Include
Slip and fall injuries can impact every part of your life. A successful premises liability claim may provide compensation for:
- Emergency room and hospital visits
- Ongoing medical treatment and physical therapy
- Lost income or inability to return to work
- Pain and suffering
- Costs for mobility aids or home modifications
- Emotional distress or loss of independence
We’ll work to understand the full impact of your injuries and pursue maximum compensation to support your recovery.

I was in an accident in and suffered injuries that upset my life. I incurred medical bills that I was not sure I could pay. Mr. Robertson secured me a settlement for more than I was expecting that paid all my bills and left me a nice sum for my pain and suffering from the accident. I would highly recommend him to anyone who has had an accident and wants someone to aggressively represent them and secure the settlement you need.

Bill, his staff, and associates did a masterful job of getting my son a healthy settlement. I don't wish a personal injury case on anyone but should that happen, I don't think you could have a better representative fighting for your well being than the Robertson Law Firm, P.A.
