Slips, trips and falls

How can compensation lawyers help with a slip, trip or fall injury?

A successful public liability claim is made by establishing fault in the person or organisation overseeing facilities where the accident occurred. Slip, trip or fall compensation covers economic and non-economic loss, including:

  • Loss of income; past, present and future
  • Medical expenses and hospital costs
  • Ongoing care and nursing arrangements
  • Payment for pain and suffering

How do I know if I qualify for fall injury compensation?

Every situation is different, and anyone who frequents shopping centres or other popular public places will encounter minor, major and possibly tragic accidents or incidents. Wherever a slip, trip or fall accident happens in public, a public liability claim may be possible. Common claim scenarios include:

  • Injuries while at the supermarket
  • Injury in a shopping or tourist precinct
  • Injuries occurring in a car park
  • Injuries in rental accommodation
  • Schoolyard and sporting injuries

What results can I expect from compensation lawyers?

Long-established lawyers such as Taylor & Scott fulfil the need to protect the rights of individuals. This service is no more graphically illustrated than in our approach to assisting all slip, trip or fall victims with valid claims for compensation. If the claims only involved filling in a few forms and waiting for payment, you probably wouldn’t need us at all, but the law is complex and often deceptive; that’s why we are here to care for you. Our assistance is on-hand and ongoing for the duration of your claim’s case, with services that include:

  • A free, confidential and comprehensive consultation and case assessment
  • Building your case; compiling documents, evidence, reports and more
  • Present your case for examination by legal insurance representatives and other parties
  • Enter into negotiations with opposing persons, organisations, or their legal team.
  • Proceed to trial with a winnable case if negotiations reach a stalemate

It’s worth remembering that you are obliged to be treated with a duty of care by individuals or organisations. The obligation and onus is on them to provide an environment where risks are minimised and harm is prevented. If negligence results in injury, suffering or loss, you have every legal right to make a public liability claim for damages. When you are ready and it’s time to take action, Taylor & Scott compensation lawyers are right by your side.
