PUBLIC LIABILITY CLAIMS

This rules that govern public liability claims applies to both publicly and privately owned properties. As such, most proprietors will be insured against accidents including slips and trips on their property.

When can I bring a Public Liability claim?

If you have been injured on a property such as a gym or a pub, you are entitled to bring a claim under common law. Essentially your claim will be saying that you have sustained injuries as a result of the negligence of the proprietor of the premises in question. In bringing this type of claim you will need to show that you were not a trespasser and that the proprietor breached their duty of care.

An unfortunate slip and trip accident can lead to any injury from bruising or whiplash to torn muscles or bone fractures. This might mean you have to take time off work along with appropriate medical and therapeutic treatment and care, and in such cases, you can always claim for compensation.
