Can I claim if I slipped in a public place?
Can I claim if I slipped in a public place, and what conditions must be met to make a successful compensation claim?
Yes, you may be able to claim compensation if you slipped, tripped or fell in a public place due to unsafe conditions like wet floors, uneven pavements, poor lighting or missing warning signs. The organisation responsible for the area, such as a council or business owner, has a duty to keep it safe. If they failed to do so and you were injured, you could have a valid slips, trips and falls claim.
You may also claim for injuries, lost earnings and recovery costs. Even if you were partly at fault, you could still be entitled to compensation.
