As with any personal injury claims, there are certain criteria that must be satisfied in order for it to be successful. You must:

• Initiate your claim and bring it to the courts within 3 years of the date of the slip and fall accident that caused the personal injury
• Have suffered injury as a result of your slip and fall – a claim cannot be made for the accident alone
• Prove that the party responsible for the premises had been negligent and this was the cause of your clip and fall accident.
• Have not been to blame for the cause of your slip and fall in any way.

If the accident involved a child under the age of 18 suffering injury, they would have 3 years from the date of their 18th birthday to pursue their claim.

The party responsible for the premises could be your employer, your local county council or the occupier of a premise open to the public, such as a shop or restaurant. There are various types of negligence, but any breach in duty of care could make the responsible party liable to have a claim brought against them. This may be because they failed to carry out a risk assessment, or because they failed to fix a problem they knew about or should have been aware of.

Our experts could help you make a claim for damages for the injury sustained, the pain and the suffering experienced, as well as aid you in claiming back financial losses that you have incurred, such as a loss of earnings as a direct result of time off work to recoup from your injury or for the cost of medical prescriptions.

You should always seek medical attention for the personal injury that you sustained in your slip and fall accident in the UK, as this will create documented evidence in your medical record. You should ensure that it is recorded that your injury was sustained as the result of an accident.

If the slip and fall took place at work or in a place open to the public, you should report it immediately to the manager or other responsible party and ensure the details of the accident and your injury are recorded in their accident record book.

These records could be used as evidence to avoid and resolve any potential disputes that could arise when pursuing a compensation claim. Photographs taken at the scene of the accident to show the contaminant or other cause of your slip could also be extremely useful.
