Council accidents cover injuries or harm caused by the fault, neglect or poor maintenance of a local authority’s facilities or roads, where the injury happened on public or council-controlled land. A solicitor handling these cases assesses whether the local authority owed a duty of care, gathers evidence, and pursues compensation for the injuries and losses arising from the incident. Practically this includes inspecting the site, obtaining council records, and negotiating with the authority or pursuing a claim in the county court or High Court if appropriate.
