Premises Liability

Boston Slip and Fall/Premises Liability Attorneys

Injuries suffered on another's property, whether in a home, in a commercial building, or a store, are often the result of negligence including improper construction, failure to properly maintain property and failure to warn visitors of hazards. If you or a family member has been injured in a slip and fall or other accident away from your home, you may have a premises liability claim.

Property owners have a responsibility to visitors to maintain their property in a reasonably safe condition. This includes measures aimed at preventing crime and the resulting risk to visitors. When property owners fail to provide adequate lighting, security, and other reasonable measures to prevent crime and injuries result from this failure, you may have a claim for personal injuries. At Quinn & Morris, LLP, we are experienced in handling premises liability claims including:

• Stairwell accidents: We investigate defects or negligence that may have contributed to a fall down the stairs, including negligent lighting, burned out light bulbs, broken steps, missing handrail, or other stairway defects or dangerous conditions.
• Slip and fall injury: Negligence often causes an individual to slip and fall or trip and fall in a grocery store, neighbor's home, office building, or other establishment. Factors may include a loose or missing brick in the walkway, debris on the floor, a carpet tear, inadequate lighting, or excess liquid or cleaning product on the floor.
• Snow and ice accidents: When injuries are caused by falls as a result of snow and ice property owners may be held liable for slip and fall accidents that result. The fall must be a result of an “unnatural accumulation” of snow or ice. Factors that will be considered will be the location of the snow and ice and the source of the ice such as a leaking gutter or a poorly designed sidewalk.
• Security-related accidents: Lack of security cameras, insufficient or inattentive security guards, lack of lighting and other negligent security in parking garages, parking lots, apartment complexes, and other areas can contribute to incidents, such as assault, rape, or theft and result in potential claims.
