Accidents in public places cover injuries you suffer on places you did not own or control, such as streets, parks, or council-run facilities, where the occupier owed you a duty of care. A solicitor in this area investigates how the injury happened, gathers medical and incident records, and reviews whether the local authority or another occupier failed to keep the area safe. They then pursue a claim for damages, typically under occupiers’ liability principles, in order to recover compensation for medical costs, loss of earnings, and pain and suffering. The path of these cases can depend on who controlled the place and the available evidence, including photographic records and the strength of liability under established statutory duties and case law.
The stakes are high when a public space is involved because injuries can have lasting effects and involve complex liability against a public body or private occupier. A solicitor will identify all liable parties, assemble medical evidence, and manage deadlines and evidence preservation to protect the client’s position. The evidence and negligence findings determine whether liability is established, the amount of compensation, and the prospects on appeal if the first decision is unfavourable.

Satisfied with Kim's handling and approach to the claim. Disappointed with the decisions of the Water Board and local Councils attitude.

Experts in recovering damages. I have instructed this firm for some years and have never been let down. The slowness I imagine is because they can get busy. They have a strong reputation and an excellent track record of success, at least for me. I am very happy to wholeheartedly recommend them. Felix particularly is very diligent and amazing to have as an advocate. However - if you have alternative options, go elsewhere, I need his time and prefer him not to be booked and committed elsewhere.

Just over a year ago we met Kiran after my wife was involved in a road traffic accident. She has helped and guided us from the start to the finish of our claim. Always incredibly professional whilst being approachable. Through her hard work we received more than we ever thought possible. We would highly recommend her for all your legal needs.
