Common Public Liability Claims We Handle

‍

Slip and Fall Accidents

‍

One of the most common types of public liability claims involves slip and fall accidents. If you’ve been injured due to a wet floor, uneven surface, or other hazards in a public space, you may be entitled to compensation. Our public liability lawyers will help you prove negligence and secure a settlement to cover your medical expenses and other losses.

‍

Injuries in Shopping Centres or Supermarkets

‍

Injuries in commercial spaces such as supermarkets or shopping centres can occur from poorly maintained premises, falling objects, or unsafe conditions. If you’ve been injured while shopping, we’ll work to hold the business accountable and recover the compensation you need for medical treatment and lost income.

‍

Parks and Public Spaces

‍

Public liability claims also cover injuries sustained in parks, playgrounds, or other public spaces. These injuries can occur due to faulty equipment, poor maintenance, or hazardous conditions. If you or a loved one has been injured in a public area, we’ll help you pursue a claim for compensation.

‍

Sporting and Recreational Accidents

‍

If you’ve been injured while participating in a sport or recreational activity, you may be entitled to make a public liability claim, especially if the injury was caused by unsafe facilities or negligence on the part of event organisers. Our team will assess the circumstances of your case and guide you through the legal process.

‍

Dog Attacks and Animal-Related Injuries

‍

Animal attacks, particularly dog bites, are covered under public liability claims if the owner of the animal is found to be negligent. We’ll help you hold the responsible party accountable and ensure you receive compensation for your injuries, medical bills, and other losses.

‍

What You Can Claim in a Public Liability Case

‍

Public liability claims can compensate you for a variety of damages. Depending on the nature of your injury and the impact it has had on your life, you may be entitled to claim compensation for:

‍

• Medical Expenses: Including hospital bills, surgeries, medication, and ongoing rehabilitation.
• Lost Income: If your injury has left you unable to work, you can claim for both past and future lost wages.
• Pain and Suffering: Compensation for the physical and emotional distress caused by the injury.
• Care and Assistance: If you require ongoing care, you can claim for the costs of home care, nursing, or other support services.
• Future Treatment Costs: We’ll ensure your claim covers any long-term medical or rehabilitation costs required as a result of your injury.

‍

The Public Liability Claims Process

‍

Step 1: Initial Consultation

‍

We begin with a free initial consultation to discuss your case. With our no win, no fee policy, you can receive expert legal advice without the worry of upfront legal fees.

‍

Step 2: Gathering Evidence

‍

A successful public liability claim requires strong evidence. Our lawyers will gather medical records, incident reports, photographs, and any witness statements to support your claim and prove negligence on the part of the property owner or responsible party.

‍

Step 3: Lodging the Claim

‍

Once we have all the necessary evidence, we’ll lodge your public liability claim with the appropriate parties, whether it’s an insurance company or the negligent party. We’ll handle the entire process on your behalf, ensuring everything is filed correctly and on time.

‍

Step 4: Negotiation and Settlement

‍

Many public liability claims are settled out of court through negotiations. Our experienced lawyers will work tirelessly to secure a fair settlement that covers all your medical expenses, lost income, and other damages.

‍

Step 5: Court Representation (if necessary)

‍

If a fair settlement cannot be reached, we’ll represent you in court and advocate for your rights. Our team has extensive courtroom experience and will fight to ensure you receive the compensation you deserve.
