Accident in a supermarket
100% Compensation
No win no fee
Accidents arising from slips and trips in a
supermarket are sometimes perceived as trivial. In reality, a high proportion of
such accidents involve serious injury and, if the accident was not your fault
and happened in the last three years, can result in compensation.
All supermarkets, in fact any shop, has a duty of care to provide a safe
shopping environment. Some accidents are unavoidable or even the shoppers fault
but in many cases accidents occur because the supermarket has not followed it's
own procedures to do regular inspections or clean up spillages.
Very
often the injuries
sustained in such accidents have adverse consequences for life. All
public and private organisations owe a duty of care to ensure all
visitors to premises are safe. Local authorities are also under a duty
to ensure that pavements and public highways are in a safe condition
for public use.
