I Was Injured by a Raised Pavement on Private Property – Could I Claim Compensation?
There are a number of different types of negligence in public areas that could lead to people sustaining injuries. We have highlighted some of the most common ones below which include:
Accidents as a result of cleaning: If a floor area or stairs have been cleaned or mopped it is the duty of the company to put out proper signage indicating that the area may be wet or slippery. If there is inadequate signage and you slip or fall and injure yourself you could be entitled to make a claim.
Areas that become wet as a result of leaks: It is the responsibility of the owners or occupiers of buildings to ensure they are properly maintained. If there are leaks and floors become wet and an accident occurs that results in you sustaining an injury you could be entitled to make a wet floor compensation claim.
Spillages: Failure to clear a spillage immediately is an act of negligence and if you slip and are injured on the area you are likely to have a valid claim for compensation.
Inclement Weather: No one can control the weather however it is the responsibility of business owners to highlight any areas of risk to customers, employees or visitors to the premises. Failure to do this could be construed as negligence.
