Slip Trip and Fall

A slip, trip or a fall is a very common accident and it can happen to anyone anywhere. Whether it occurs from falling down the stairs at home or tripping over some uneven pavement slabs you may be entitled to claim for compensation.

If you slip trip or fall on a an uneven pavement then your local council will be liable as they have a legal duty to make sure the pavement or street is in a good state of repair. If on the other hand you slip trip or fall at work then it is your employers responsible to make sure everyone follows the health and safety regulations. The same goes for a fall in a shop, the shopkeeper has a duty to make sure that their customers are safe on their premises.

If you have a slip trip or fall accident that was a result of someone else’s negligence the first thing to do is to try to obtain as much evidence as possible. If possible a photograph of what caused the accident would be of great benefit. If there were witnesses to the accident then asking for their contacts details would also be of great benefit.
