Slip and Fall Attorneys

Helping premises liability victims get the compensation that they need

Sometimes, people do not take slip and fall cases seriously. The attorneys at Stephen Gordon & Associates know differently. They know that falling in an unsafe building can cause serious injury. Their law firm has handled premises liability cases that involved head injuries, broken bones, and even scarring. If you or someone you love has suffered from a slip and fall injury, contact Stephen Gordon & Associates to consult a skilled, effective legal team.

Slip and Fall Lawsuits

The firm handles premises liability cases that involve

  • Faulty construction, including OSHA violations and breach of contract
  • Poor maintenance
  • Serious injury
  • Dog bites
  • Falling objects
  • Inadequate security
  • Building code violations such as lack of fireproofing, hand railings, or proper exits

In order to bring a successful lawsuit against a property owner, it is important to know his or her exact duty toward a client. If someone invites another person on their property, they have a duty to keep that property free of hazard, especially if their property is open to the public. Even a homeowner has certain duties, such as the duty to keep an aggressive animal where it cannot harm a passerby. The attorneys know how to convey that information to a jury effectively. They are also adept at pinpointing where and when the property owner breached his or her duty.

In addition, the attorneys are familiar with Massachusetts building codes. The same knowledge that they use in their construction litigation cases also helps them secure compensation for their slip and fall clients. When necessary, they also employ two experts. One of them is an engineer. The other is an architect. Both hold construction licenses.
