Common Slip, Trip, and Fall Claims

These accidents can happen anywhere, but they are almost always preventable. A claim can arise when a council, business, or property owner fails in their legal 'duty of care' to keep you reasonably safe. We have experience in claims against:

Supermarkets & Shops

Accidents caused by wet floors without warning signs, dropped produce, or items left obstructing aisles.

Pavements & Public Roads

Claims against local councils for injuries caused by broken or uneven paving stones, potholes, or icy surfaces that were not gritted.

Accidents at Work

Claims against employers for trips on trailing cables, slips on wet surfaces, or falls from unsafe ladders.

Restaurants, Pubs & Bars

Injuries caused by spilled food or drinks, poor lighting on stairs, or damaged flooring that was not repaired.

How We Prove Your Case

The key to a successful claim is proving that the other party was negligent. Our solicitors are experts at gathering the crucial evidence needed to build a robust case.

  • Photographic Evidence: We advise you on the importance of taking clear photos of the accident location and the specific hazard that caused your fall.
  • Witness Statements: We trace and interview witnesses who saw the accident or can confirm the dangerous condition existed.
  • Accident Reports: We obtain copies of any official accident reports made at the time of the incident to a business or local authority.
  • Medical Records: We use your medical records to formally document the extent of your injuries and their impact on your life.

Your Slip, Trip & Fall Questions

What should I do immediately after an accident?

If you can, you should: 1. Report the accident to the staff or owner of the premises immediately. 2. Take clear photographs of the exact location and the hazard that caused you to fall. 3. Get the contact details of any witnesses. 4. Seek medical attention as soon as possible to document your injuries.

What if there was a 'wet floor' sign?

A sign does not automatically remove the owner's responsibility. The sign must be clearly visible and placed appropriately. If the sign was hidden, or if the spill was extensive and had been left for an unreasonable amount of time, you may still have a strong claim. We can assess the specific circumstances for you.

How are my legal fees paid?

We provide privately-funded legal advice and will give you a clear, transparent estimate of our fees from the start. This ensures our advice on your claim's prospects and any settlement offers remains completely impartial and focused on your best interests. In successful cases, a significant portion of your legal costs can often be recovered from the other side.
