Slip or Trip Accident Compensation: Your Right to Claim

Slip or Trip Accident Compensation: Your Right to Claim

If you’ve suffered injuries after a slip or trip in a public place or at work, which was the fault of someone else, you could be eligible for compensation, whatever the severity of your injuries. At Winclaim, our accident lawyers have in-depth knowledge and extensive experience in pursuing private or public organisations for compensation on behalf of injured victims so that they can get their lives back on track as quickly as possible.

Slip accidents can happen either in icy conditions, or where a spill or leak has not been quickly cleared or guarded. Tripping accidents commonly occur on uneven, poorly maintained public footpaths or roads. Slip or trip accidents can happen anywhere, from supermarkets and restaurants to shopping centres.   Whiplash, soft tissue injuries, back strain and broken bones are common slip or trip injuries and some can have long term effects.

When you can claim

If the accident was someone else’s fault, Winclaim can help you claim the compensation you deserve. People and businesses that are responsible for a property have to make sure that visitors are reasonably safe. If a car park is in a poor state of repair or obstructions have been left in corridors and cause injury, you can bring a claim for compensation. If you slip in a supermarket because they have not done enough to ensure it is safe, then they will be regarded as being at fault for your accident and have to pay compensation for any injury or loss you have suffered.

Local Authorities are under a duty to maintain footpaths and roads.  If they do not carry out their duty you then you may be able to claim.  Of course it’s not possible for public footpaths to be in a perfect state of repair all the time and this will be taken into consideration. But if there are reasonable grounds for your claim, we’ll take it on and then move swiftly to secure a settlement that gets you the money you need to pay for good quality treatment or care, and compensates you and your family for any financial losses. If your injuries are likely to continue causing problems into the future, or have accelerated or worsened an underlying problem, we’ll make sure your award reflects this.

At work strict health and safety regulations apply. If you have slipped at work because of a wet floor or tripped because of an obstruction you may be able to claim. Here at Winclaim, we are experts at winning slip and trip claims. We will look after every aspect of your case and give you the best chance receiving proper compensation for your accident.
