Negligent Supervision
Attorney Miami

When someone in authority fails to properly supervise and you get hurt, they can be held legally responsible.

Overview

Negligent Supervision in Miami

Negligent supervision occurs when an employer, school, childcare facility, healthcare provider, or other responsible party fails to adequately oversee people or activities under their control — and that failure causes injury. In Miami, our attorneys prosecute these cases against businesses, institutions, and individuals who should have acted to prevent harm but didn't.

Common Questions

Negligent Supervision FAQs

What do I need to prove in a negligent supervision case?

You must show that a duty of supervision existed, that the duty was breached through inadequate oversight, and that the breach directly caused your injury. Our attorneys investigate the facts and build the evidence needed.

Can I sue a company for an employee's actions?

Yes. Under Florida law, employers can be held vicariously liable for employee conduct when the action occurred within the scope of employment, or when the employer knew (or should have known) of the risk.

What is the statute of limitations for negligent supervision in Florida?

Generally, you have 2 years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit in Florida. Do not wait — contact us immediately to preserve your claim.
