What Is The Duty Of Care For Florida Property Owners?

In Florida, property owners have a duty to make sure their property is safe for people that are personally invited onto the property or if there’s a general invitation to the public, such as a store. This includes a duty to inspect the property for hazards, make repairs, and/or properly warn of unsafe conditions. There is a very limited duty to protect people that are on the property illegally, such as trespassers. The attractive nuisance doctrine requires that owners anticipate that certain things on their property might attract children to trespass, such as swimming pools and play equipment. Owners must fence off these attractive nuisances to avoid liability for children injured on the property.
