Tripping & Slipping Accident Compensation Claims If you have been injured in a tripping or slipping accident, you may have a claim for compensation against the party responsible for the accident. The compensation should cover the injuries you receive and any expenses or losses that you incur as a result of the accident.
The most common types of these accidents are slips on spillages in public buildings (such as shops, supermarkets, restaurants) and trips over badly maintained footpaths.
Slipping accidentsIf you slip on liquid or objects on the floor whilst in a commercial premises (such as a supermarket, restaurant, shopping centre), then there may be a claim against the owner or occupier of the premises. They are responsible for taking reasonable steps to ensure your reasonable safety while you are on their premises. This usually involves them inspecting and cleaning the premises on a regular basis.
Trips on the pavementIf you have an accident on a badly maintained footpath (such as a dangerous pothole or uneven paving stone) you may be entitled to make a claim for compensation.
The Local Authority is under a duty to regularly inspect the pavements and footpaths in your area. If the defect has been present and the Local Authority knew, or should have known, about it through their system of regular and reasonable inspections, and no action has been taken to remedy the problem or warn pedestrians about it, then you should be able to claim against their insurers.
Other accidents may occur on the highway and you may be able to claim if the Local Authority has failed to maintain or repair the roads, or failed to safeguard manholes or failed to guard or fence roadworks.
