If I Slip on a Sidewalk in RI, is it the Responsibility of the Property Owner or the Town?

If you slipped on a sidewalk or a highway or a town road in Rhode Island, it’s very important that you come in and see me as soon as you can after it happens. There are very strict notice requirements in Rhode Island to the cities about slipping falls or tripping falls on municipal sidewalks or highways. If a proper notice is not given to the town within that very short period of time, you will lose your right to bring an action against the town municipality so again, it’s very important if you slip and fall on a highway or a sidewalk to contact us this form as soon as possible so we can get that notice out right away.
