‘What is the Statute of Limitations for Massachusetts Slip and Fall Accidents?’

Generally, you have three years from the date of the accident to bring a lawsuit in Massachusetts for injuries sustained in a slip and fall, or trip and fall accident.  There are exceptions however, such as a two year statute of limitations for claims stemming from injuries on MBTA property. 

Also, if you live in Massachusetts and your slip and fall accident was in a different state, then that state's laws apply.  Not all states have a three year statute of limitations like Massachusetts does.
