Public LiabilityA duty of care exists for those who own and occupy buildings or other spaces that are accessible to the public.  The owner has to ensure it is safe for all to use.  This applies to properties such as shops, supermarkets, leisure centres etc.

So, if you have an accident or injury in one of these places, you may be entitled to claim for compensation.  It is important that you have

1) The matter logged in an accident book.

2) Try and get names of witnesses and if possible photographs of the causal factor – for example an unmarked wet slippery floor.

Can’t work?
