Slips/Trips in
Public Places
Public roads, pavements and floors across the country
cause thousands of accidents every year.
Tripping and slipping on uneven slabs and wet floors can
result in serious injury and disability together with
significant financial loss.
If your accident in a public place can be proven to be the
fault of the local authority, occupier of land or someone
contracted to them, it may be possible to recover
compensation for you.
What is compensation?
Compensation in the form of damages generally falls in to two categories; general damages for pain and suffering and special damages representing financial and other losses suffered as a result of the accident, including loss of earnings, medical and care costs and other out of pocket expenses. In cases of need it is sometimes possible to obtain some special damages as the case progresses.
