Slip and Fall Injuries

New Hampshire and Massachusetts Slip and Fall Accident Lawyer

What Should I Do After a Slip and Fall Accident in New Hampshire or Massachusetts?

If you have been in a pedestrian accident in Nashua, New Hampshire we strongly recommend you take the following steps:

  • Call the Police
  • Having an official police report can be paramount to your case at a later date.

  • Seek Immediate Medical Attention
  • People can be unaware of the damage they’ve sustained during an accident event. It is important to let a doctor decide whether or not you are okay after a slip and fall accident. Having a medical record of your slip and fall accident will also make it easier to prove the cause of your injury was the slip and fall.

  • Obtain the Premises Owner’s Information
  • It is highly important you obtain the premises or business owner's full name, address, phone number, and insurance information directly following your slip and fall accident.

  • Speak to Witnesses
  • At Buckley Law Offices we are repeatedly unsurprised by and deeply grateful for the number of good samaritans that regularly come forward to help slip and fall accident victims obtain fair compensation for their accidents. If someone saw your slip and fall accident you should speak with them immediately. Get their full name, address, and phone number if you can. Witness testimony is invaluable.

  • Take Photographs
  • Before you leave the scene of the fall, if you are able to, take pictures. If you have already left the scene of the accident, take pictures of your injuries. Take pictures of anything else that may seem important to your case. The more details your lawyer has access to the better.

  • Contact Buckley Law Offices

How to Prove Liability and Negligence in a Slip and Fall Lawsuit

“Slip and Fall” lawsuits are a nuanced type of premises liability lawsuit. New Hampshire requires premises liability lawsuits be filed within three years from the date of the accident in most cases. Speaking with a lawyer as quickly as possible is paramount to the success of your lawsuit.

To win a lawsuit involving premises liability, New Hampshire plaintiffs must prove at least these things:

  • The plaintiff was interacting with or on a property owned, leased, occupied, or controlled by the defendant.
  • The defendant failed to repair dangerous conditions or use reasonable care to prevent dangerous conditions from occurring on their property.
  • The plaintiff was injured.
  • The injury the plaintiff suffered was the result of the defendant’s failure to repair or prevent dangerous conditions, or to warn the plaintiff of the dangerous condition.
