Miami Lakes was established in Miami-Dade County in 2000 and the young community already has more than 1700 businesses and more than 27 000 residents. While Miami Lakes is relatively young, it actually has a history spanning back more than four decades, when a family began to develop a community on what was then the Graham family dairy farm. The family master designed a community that could sustain prolonged development on the initial 3,000 acres of land. As a result of this careful planning, Miami Lakes today is a city with many trees and parks as well as 23 lakes.
However, no planning of any kind can help prevent all accidents. Miami Lakes, like all communities, sees its fair share of accidents, including slip and fall accidents. Miami Lakes slip and fall accident victims sustain their injuries in many ways. These accidents can be caused by spills, poor ground maintenance, debris, obstructions, uneven sidewalks, and many other reasons. Slip and fall accidents cam easily lead to fractured hips, broken bones, and even serious head and spine injuries.
For an elderly person, a Miami Lakes slip and fall accident can prove fatal. Even for a young, healthy adult, this type of accident can cause tens of thousands of dollars in lost wages as well as many tens of thousands of dollars in medical costs. Some people find themselves as Miami Lakes brain injury patients after this type of accident, requiring years or even a lifetime of care and treatment.
