Massachusetts Slip and Fall Injury Attorneys
Fighting for Slip and Fall Injury Victims
Injuries that occur on another person's property due to some type of dangerous condition are called "slip and fall" injuries. In Massachusetts and Rhode Island, property owners may be liable if they did not properly maintain their property or failed to warn visitors about possible dangerous conditions. Often a slip and fall injury is the result of someone slipping or tripping on something in or on the property which the owner knew about and failed to correct. Nearly always the property owner has one or more insurance policies in place should a slip and fall accident happen on their property. We all know insurance companies cannot be trusted; their goal is always to pay out the least amount possible, regardless of who is hurt and why.

Slip and Fall Accidents: the Preventable Accident
Slip and fall accidents can occur anywhere, but particularly at restaurant, apartment building, grocery store, convenience store, or other store. Injuries often are caused by the owner failing to properly maintain their property such as when liquids or debris are on the floor, or there is torn carpet, uneven sidewalks, or broken railing or banister. Another common source of premises liability claims involve dog bite injuries. A property owner or keeper of an animal may be subject to strict liability for injuries caused by the animal because the owner did not properly safe-keep the animal. Parking lot or parking ramp assaults also can result from negligent security. This can be from inadequate lighting, a lack of security or other negligent condition. Stairway and stairwell accidents are caused by broken steps, missing railing or other legally negligent conditions.
Occasionally, inadequate security in a building allows criminal activity to occur that results in injury to the building's occupants or customers. Some buildings or premises are required to maintain a certain level of security, and inadequate security that leads to injury can result in liability of the owner to anyone injured or killed.
