Do have any rights on a law suit other than workman's com ?

I would recommend you consult with a personal injury lawyer in your state that handles work comp and/or slip and fall cases. If you were on the job, you might be limited to work comp. However, if there was negligence on the part of a third party that created an unnatural accumulation of ice, you could possibly have a case. Laws vary greatly by state for premises liability, so it would be best to consult with a lawyer in your area.

A personal injury case is comprised of three ingredients 1) liability - I think you are good with that if you can show that the landlord had notice of the defective premises. 2) damages - how badly were you injured? Are any injuries permanent? 3) Pockets - does the homeowner have insurance?  If not, do they have other assets?  My office handles these types of cases regularly.

Can I file a claim for trip and fall

Answered 4 years and 7 months ago by Hon. Max L Rosenberg (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer

You might have been able to make a claim at the time of the accident depending on the defect in the sidewalk. However, the statute of limitation in Connecticut is 2 years from the date of injury. So even if your injury occured at the end of June, you are roughly 4 months and 4 days past the end of your statute of limitations.  Furthermore, if this sidewalk belonged to the municipality, your SOL is even shorter.  There is such a thing as tolling of statute of limitations in rare circumstances but based on what you are providing,  I find it highly unlikely?  Please feel free to contact me for more information. 203-870-6700...

Do I have a legitimate case against the town/state, whoever is reaponsible for clearing snow and ice from public parking?

You may have a claim but it depends on a number of conditions : the ice had to be on the ground long enough for the state/town to know about it and have time to clear it and 2: there cannot be any fault on your part in falling ( wearing inappropriate shoes for example is a common defense). For more information contact me at 860-919-5810 Atty Tony Sheffy.... Read Answer
