Slips, trips and falls cover harm suffered from someone else’s negligence on a public or private area, including pavements, shops, workplaces or communal spaces. A solicitor in this area handles investigations into what happened, gathers evidence, and pursues or defends a claim for compensation for physical injuries, psychological impact and financial losses. They guide the client through the fault assessment, liability issues, and the higer-level settlement or court process, from initial disclosure to final settlement or judgment.
Where a solicitor protects your position
The focus is on deadlines that bite and the consequences of critical decisions in fault, liability and settlement. A solicitor provides regulated protection through client accounts, conduct of proceedings, and access to professional indemnity insurance if a case proceeds to court.
