The unpredictable weather in the UK means that pavements are often snowy, wet from rain, or icy, which promotes slips and falls. Damaged or missing paving stones can also be dangerous. In institutions, offices, or shopping centres, we often encounter slippery floors or wet stairs, which are a common cause of falls. Accidents also occur in lifts, at bus stations, in car parks, and at airports.

There is an increased risk near construction sites, where falling objects can lead to serious injuries. The responsibility for safety in such places lies with the owners, administrators, and institutions, who have a duty to maintain pavements, secure construction sites, repair defects, and carry out maintenance of lifts, stairs, and handrails. Unfortunately, due to costs and haste, negligence and violations of Health & Safety (H&S) regulations often occur, which increases the risk of accidents – in England, Wales, and Scotland alike.

When are you entitled to compensation?

If an accident in a public place occurred at least 50% not through your fault, you can start the compensation process.

What evidence is worth collecting?

• Photos from the scene of the incident,
• Details and statements from witnesses,
• Medical documentation confirming the injuries,
• Receipts for treatment and rehabilitation,
• Proof of lost earnings.

Your Rights

If you have been injured as a result of an accident in the UK (England, Wales, Scotland), you have the right to claim for personal injury compensation and reimbursement of incurred financial losses. The amount of compensation depends on the type of injuries and the time needed to recover, which also affects the amount of lost income.

The compensation process can be started immediately after the incident, without waiting for treatment to end. If you have any doubts, take advantage of a free case analysis at our law firm.

No Win No Fee Principle

We operate on the “No Win No Fee” principle, which means you only pay when we obtain compensation for you. This allows you to use the help of solicitors without any upfront fees. In practice, this means you bear no financial risk – you can only gain.
