The Occupiers Liability Act puts a duty on the supermarket to take all reasonable steps to prevent someone being injured in their store. If you have an accident, it doesn\u2019t automatically entitle you to compensation \u2013 we must prove they have breached the law.<\/p>\n<p>If you have slipped, were there any wet floor signs deployed or cordons? Has the area been recently inspected by staff to clear away hazards? Are there training policies for staff to look out for and rectify such hazards? If there isn\u2019t, you may have a claim.<\/p>\n<p>If you have tripped in the car park because of a pothole or another common defect, how long has it been there for? What steps have the supermarket taken to ensure people are not in any danger? These are the sorts of questions we\u2019ll be asking the supermarkets or their insurers when we pursue your claim for you \u2013 and if they don\u2019t have the answers or the evidence, you can win a claim.<\/p>\n<p>But if they can prove they have taken reasonable steps, they can successfully defend a case. And in most cases, they may try it on. We have seen on so many occasions where they have tried to fight and defend the claim with evidence that isn\u2019t accurate, and steps that aren\u2019t good enough.<\/p>\n<p><b><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">How do I give myself the best chance at winning?<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p>Simple \u2013 ensure the accident is reported, and contact The Injury lawyers immediately to start a case. CCTV could well be your best friend in proving your claim, but it is only kept for a few short weeks and once it\u2019s gone, it\u2019s gone. \u00a0The key evidence that could win your claim may very well slip from your grasp, leaving you with a much harder fight on your hands.<\/p>\n<p>We are a specialist firm of personal injury lawyers, so we are used to dealing with claims for supermarket accidents and we know how best to fight them and what steps to take to give you the best shot of winning.
