Accidents Involving Members Of The Public
Every year members of the public suffer accidents as a result of someone else’s fault. Injuries are often significant and can result in visits to the GP and/or hospital. Treatment may take the form of physiotherapy, chiropractic, osteopathy, acupuncture and pain management.
Accident Location - Not Just A Public Place
Claims can be brought for injuries suffered in a public place such as in the street (on the pavement or the road), in a playground or on a beach. But they can also be brought for injuries suffered in a privately owned location, for example, in a shop, supermarket, leisure centre, swimming pool, a football or rugby stadium, a concert venue or someone’s home.
Types Of Public Accident Claims
Typically, injuries arise from a trip, a slip or a fall. They could for example be due to an uneven surface or a wet floor. Injuries can also arise for example from such things as falling objects or environmental factors affecting breathing.
