Slips, trips, and falls account for a significant percentage of personal injury claims across the UK. While often dismissed as minor missteps, a severe fall can lead to broken bones, torn ligaments, joint dislocations, or permanent mobility restrictions.
Whether your fall happened in a retail shop, on a defective council pavement, or at your place of work, establishing liability requires demonstrating that a hazard was left unaddressed for an unreasonable period.
Key Factors in Establishing a Slip or Trip Claim
Defective Surface Hazards: Pavement potholes or raised paving slabs measuring over 1 inch (2.5 cm) in height.
Slippery & Unmarked Surfaces: Wet floors in commercial premises without clear warning signage.
Poor Lighting & Hidden Obstacles: Insufficient lighting in stairwells, walkways, or parking facilities leading to trips over unseen hazards.
