Slip and Fall / Premises Liability Injuries

Prominent Boston Premises Liability Lawyers

The personal injury attorneys of Bishop & Reidy have broad experience in premises liability injury claims cases. Premises liability cases include more than simple slip and fall accidents in a shopping center. Premises liability claims can include injuries suffered by dog bites, falling objects, physical and sexual assault, and pedestrian accidents. Premises liability claims extend to private property, government buildings, schools, and churches.

Premises liability is not only about slip and fall accidents on snow

Premises liability covers a wide range of injury claims. If you or a family member has suffered a heart attack in a public building without a defibrillator on site, you may have a viable premises liability claim. In addition, injuries suffered by attending sporting events or participating in recreational activities also fall into the area of premises liability. Bishop & Reidy is not a worker's compensation claim law firm, but we can also help you recover additional compensation from third party insurers who share liability for your workplace injuries.

We have helped people receive compensation for premises liability injury claims such as:

• Supermarkets and retail store injuries
• Pedestrian injuries
• Dog bites
• School and playground accidents
• Food poisoning from fast food restaurants
• Construction site accidents
• Nursing home injuries

Slip and fall accidents often result in injuries such as:

• Wrongful death, fatal accidents
• Traumatic brain injuries
• Closed head wounds, concussions
• Soft tissue injuries
• Fractures
• Back and spinal cord injuries
• Burns
• Disfigurement

More than one source of compensation

People injured in premises liability accidents may not realize that there may be more than a single insurance source to recover compensation. If you were injured while walking through an unlit area of a parking lot, the management shares liability, but the lighting contractor may also be responsible for damages. Getting hurt in a public parking ramp stairwell may involve liability on the part of the ramp owners, but may also include the city government and the construction contractors. We have the experience and knowledge of personal injury trial law to investigate all possible avenues for recovery. We make our objectives clear to the opposing attorneys. We prepare every case to help our clients receive the full amount of compensation they may be entitled to.
