Slips, Trips and Falls Claims

Slips, Trips and Falls Claims


These types of accidents happen all the time and can be caused by hazards like uneven pavements, poor lighting or wet surfaces. They often happen due to poor housekeeping by councils, businesses or landlords who fail to maintain the public areas for which they’re responsible. They can happen in offices, shops, restaurants, supermarkets, on the street or whilst taking public transport.

The injuries that people suffer can vary from cuts, and bruising that heal quickly through to broken bones, damage to the spine and severe head trauma that can turn people’s lives upside down.

Your Duties

Under the Public Liability Protocol, the burden is on you to prove that your accident was caused as a consequence of the defendant’s actions or negligence. It is therefore important that you provide Crest Solicitors with as much information as possible to support your accident and injuries.  Please ensure that the following are available:

  • Full details of the incident location, including address and contact numbers of Head Offices;
  • If you tripped in a store, then please ensure that an accident report form is completed, even if it is recorded shortly after your accident date;
  • Details of any Witnesses i.e. name and contact details, in order that we may obtain their Witness Statement;
  • Please take photographs/videos of the location of the incident, the defective area or spillage in question;
  • Photographs of any injuries sustained;
  • Seek medical treatment as soon as possible.  If you do not attend the hospital on the very same day, then visit your GP the next convenient day;
  • We can also seek to obtain CCTV footage where available.
