If it\u2019s on private land like on a supermarket or a car park, then similar laws can apply for whoever owns\/ is in control of the land,<\/p>\n<p>If they have no knowledge of the defect, then it comes down to proof that all reasonable steps have been taken to prevent an accident occurring. For a council claim, the Highways Act applies; on private land, the Occupiers Liability Act applies; and if it\u2019s in the workplace, The Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 apply. All generally place a duty on whoever is in control of the area to take reasonable steps.<\/p>\n<p>Reasonable steps would normally be systems of inspection and maintenance. On private land or in the workplace, you\u2019d expect this to be fairly common as people of authority like staff may be there all the time. On public land however, \u00a0it\u2019s down to systems of inspection based on how frequent the area is used. Inspection intervals can range from monthly to annually \u2013 so if they can prove a pothole has appeared in between inspection periods, they can defend the claim.<\/p>\n<p><b><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">100% Compensation Offer<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p>Did you know that the law changed last year which resulted in lawyers being unable to recover all of their fees from the other side?
