Have you been injured in a slip trip or fall as a result of a defective road or pavement?

Have you slipped or fallen in a shop or supermarket ?

Slips and trips can occur in a variety of different locations, and for a variety of reasons. Tripping accidents caused by defective pavements and slipping accidents caused by spillages in supermarkets or other buildings are common incidents.

Your personal injury may be due to damaged paving stones, potholes, spillages, or an uneven path or road. If you are injured due to the negligence of a local authority or business, you may be entitled to claim compensation.

Your local authority has a responsibility to the public to maintain pavements, roads and other areas to ensure safety to users. Similarly, buildings open to the public must take steps to ensure the safety of visitors.

In order to make a successful claim for accident compensation in a public area it has to be proven that the persons responsible for the area were to blame and were negligent. For example, local councils should have regular inspections and repair of any hazardous areas of road or pathway. If these repairs and inspections have not been made, injured parties have good ground for compensation. Compensation-Experts have solicitors that cover all areas of personal injury.
