This kind of accident is covered by a concept in Law called Occupiers Liability under the Occupiers Liability Act 1984.
In essence it is for the ‘ occupier’ or ‘ owner’ of land or premises to ensure that all reasonable steps have been taken to ensure the safety of people, visitors, to those premises.
In work and public places as well as supermarkets and restaurants, the owners must show that they have taken all reasonable steps to keep the premises safe and this is an ongoing duty resulting in appropriate inspection and cleaning arrangements. This can be a complicated area of law and it is essential to find the right legal advisor. At Smooth Law we do not give our clients a false sense of success but if we support your case through a conditional fee agreement then we will pursue your claim and interest vigorously together with our professional partners.
Smooth Top Tip
In supermarkets, restaurants and your place of work, ask for the accident book and record the accident and witnesses. DO NOT sign the accident book unless you are happy with what is recorded.
