What Is a Slip & Fall Claim?

Property owners and those who control property have a duty to keep their premises reasonably safe and to fix or warn about hazards they know about or reasonably should know about. When they fail to do so and someone is injured, the injured person may have grounds to pursue a premises liability claim.

Common causes of slip and fall accidents include:

  • Broken stairs
  • Missing railings
  • Loose carpeting
  • Wet floors
  • Cluttered walkways
  • Uneven surfaces 
  • Poor lighting

Our Plymouth slip and fall lawyer can evaluate your case, explain your legal options, and help determine whether you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries and losses.

What To Do After A Slip & Fall

The hours and days after a fall can feel chaotic. You may be in pain, worried about missing work, and unsure what to say to the property owner or an insurance adjuster. Taking a few practical steps can help protect your health and your potential claim.

After a slip and fall accident, consider taking these steps:

  1. Seek medical attention: Call 911 if necessary and have your injuries evaluated as soon as possible, even if they seem minor.
  2. Report the accident: Notify the property owner, manager, or business about the incident and request a copy or confirmation of the report if available.
  3. Document the scene: Take photos or videos of the hazard, the surrounding area, and your injuries if you are able.
  4. Gather witness information: Collect the names and contact details of anyone who saw the accident occur.
  5. Preserve evidence: Keep the clothing and footwear you were wearing and avoid altering them until your claim has been reviewed.
  6. Be cautious with insurers: Avoid giving detailed recorded statements or accepting settlement offers before understanding your rights.
  7. Speak with an attorney: Contact a Plymouth slip and fall attorney to discuss your situation and learn about your legal options.

The actions you take after a fall can affect your ability to recover compensation. Our team can answer your questions, review the circumstances of your accident, and help you understand the next steps.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my slip and fall is a case?

Whether you have a case often depends on why the hazard existed and what the property owner did about it. We review how the fall happened, how long the condition may have been present, and what injuries you suffered, then explain whether the facts support a potential claim.

What will it cost to hire your firm?

We handle these injury matters on a contingency fee basis under our No-Fee Promise. You do not pay an attorney fee up front, and our fee is a percentage of any recovery we obtain for you. If we do not recover compensation, you do not owe an attorney fee.

What if I was partly to blame for my fall?

In Massachusetts, you may still pursue a claim if you were partly at fault, as long as your share of responsibility stays below a certain level. Insurers often raise blame as an issue. We look at the facts and work to address unfair attempts to shift responsibility onto you.

How long do slip and fall cases usually take?

The length of a case depends on factors like how severe your injuries are, how long treatment lasts, and whether liability is disputed. Some matters resolve in months, while others take longer. We keep you updated and discuss timing as your medical picture and the evidence develop.

Will you deal with the insurance company for me?

Yes. When we represent you, we typically handle communication and negotiations with insurers so you do not have to manage those conversations alone. Our team, including a partner with insurance industry experience, understands how these companies operate and works to protect your interests throughout the process.
