Unfortunately accidents and injuries can occur where you might not expect. For example, a trip and fall injury may occur on a slippery floor at the supermarket or shopping mall; or you may fall due to lack of fencing in a public place, or perhaps your injury is a result of badly maintained or uneven steps. If you experience a fall which results in serious injury, you may have rights and protections under Public Liability law.
A Public Liability claim may be brought against the party at fault (even if only partially) for failing to take reasonable care, such as failing to reasonably ensure a safe environment. If successful, a Public Liability claim settlement can compensate you for your injuries, including medical costs, self-care and loss of past and future income.
On the first Wednesday of every month, from 9am-12 noon, Senior Associate Solicitor Amanda Robinson is holding free Public Liability Advice consultations. You may book a time to meet with her to discuss the possibility of making a Public Liability claim. These sessions are no obligation, and may help you in making a decision to move forward following such an injury.
