Local Councils, businesses and property owners must keep their property and the areas around it free from hazards and defects.
Common causes of slips and trips claims are as follows:
- Failure to repair holes or cracks in pavements
- Failure to remove obstructions from pavements
- Failure to clean up slippery floors, including food or liquid spillages in supermarkets, for instance
- Failure to erect railings and barriers or mark or fence-off dangerous areas
- Failure to provide adequate lighting to streets or premises
To bring a claim, you must show that the owner or person with responsibility for the land upon which you fell, was at fault and that the defect caused your injury.
