If you are a parishioner who has been hurt, contact this Fort Lauderdale Church and Community Center Accident Lawyer for assistance. Although churches are places of worship, they can also be dangerous. Various types of accidents can occur at churches and community/civic centers.
These include slip and fall and trip & fall accidents. If you’ve fallen over a liquid or object on the floor of a church or community/civic center, you may be able to pursue a case against the church or community/civic center where you fell. Liquids that can cause falls include water, soda or juice.
If you’ve fallen on a liquid or object in a church or community/civic center, you will need to prove that the church or community/civic center either 1) had “actual knowledge” of the dangerous condition or 2) had “constructive knowledge” of it.

In order to prove actual knowledge, you would need to show that employees of the church or community/civic center either a) created the dangerous condition or b) were aware of it and didn’t do anything about it. You can do this through testimony or records/reports from the church or community/civic center.
In order to prove constructive knowledge, you would need to show that the dangerous condition existed for long enough that employees of the church or civic/community center should have known about it. You can do this using circumstantial evidence. For example, if you slipped on water on the ground/floor that had tracks or dirt in it, you may be able to prove that the water had been there for long enough that employees of the church should have known about it. On the other hand, if the water was in a place close to where employees of the church or civic/community center were located, you may be able to successfully argue that the employees could have easily seen it and, therefore, should have seen it.
Occasionally things will fall in churches or civic/community centers and injure people. For example, walls or parts of roofs/ceilings may fall and cause injuries. If this occurs and you are hurt as a result, you may be able to pursue a case against the church or civic/community center where you were injured.
Accidents may also be caused when employees from churches or civic/community centers accidentally injure you. For example, an employee from a church or civic/community center may negligently trip or knock you over. If you are injured as a result, then you may be able to pursue a case against the church or civic/community center where you were hurt.
Finally, accidents frequently involve church-owned vehicles. Churches frequently use vans to transport groups of people. However, these vehicles aren’t always properly maintained. If this occurs, an accident results, and you are injured as a result – then you may be able to pursue a personal injury case.
