Slip and fall lawyer Massachusetts: your deadline
The first thing a Massachusetts slip and fall lawyer checks is the clock. You have three years from the day you fell to file, under M.G.L. c. 260 § 2A.
Talks with the owner's insurer do not stop that clock. Only a lawsuit filed in court does.
How Massachusetts splits the blame
Massachusetts lets you collect if you were half to blame or less. Above that, the claim is barred. The rule is in M.G.L. c. 231 § 85.
Say a jury values the case at $40,000 and finds you 20 percent to blame. You would receive $32,000.
Public property in Massachusetts
A fall on government property needs written notice first: two years under M.G.L. c. 258 § 4. Miss it and the claim against the government can be gone.
What your Massachusetts case is worth
The value comes from your bills, lost pay, how long you hurt, and the fault split above.
Answer four quick questions; the Massachusetts rule is already set.
