Premises Liability, Slip and Fall Accidents

Massachusetts Premises Liability / Slip and Falls

From Unsafe Premises to Scaffolding Accidents, We Can Help

Premises Liability

"Premises liability" is the legal term for the responsibility of owners of real estate to keep their properties reasonably safe. At the very least, the owner of the premises is required to warn about any dangers that the owner either knows or should know about. The legal requirement to keep premises reasonably safe applies to both the owners of residential and commercial property. For instance, if there is unnecessarily dangerous scaffolding along a home or other building that causes someone injury, the owner of the premises may be held responsible for those injuries. At Dane Shulman Associates, LLC our Boston Massachusetts scaffolding construction accident attorneys can advise you of your rights if you have been injured on someone else's property. Our attorneys will expertly and aggressively pursue your rights.

Slips and Falls

"Slip and Fall" describes a specific cause of injury on someone else's unsafe premises. A slippery floor, slippery tile or other dangerous condition can cause slips and falls that result in someone getting injured. Property owners must keep their premises reasonably safe or warn of any dangerous conditions that they know or should know about. For instance, homeowners who fail to clear the sidewalks in front of their home of slippery snow and ice may be held liable to those who are injured while trying to cross the sidewalk.

In most cases, however, slip and fall accidents occur on commercial property, such as grocery stores, gas stations and office buildings. For instance, if you have been injured by an accident at work caused by an unreasonably dangerous condition, you may have a legal remedy against the owner of the office building or workplace.
