Sometimes claims can be difficult to win, and we don\u2019t know whether there is a good case or not until we actually pursue it.<\/p>\n<p>So how does it all work?<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"h3\">No Win, No Fee explained<\/h2>\n<p>If the claim doesn&#8217;t win, we don&#8217;t charge you. We can do this because we only ever take on a case on a No Win, No Fee basis if we think we have a good enough shot of winning the claim. So it&#8217;s a business decision to take the risk of the case on, and it&#8217;s totally down to us to accept the risk of not getting paid.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"h3\">The Law for slip and Trip claims<\/h3>\n<p>I&#8217;ll split this in to two categories \u2013 one for work claims, and one for public claims.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Work Claims<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The law that commonly applies is The Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations. The regulation that can be most commonly cited is Regulation 12 (3) that states:<\/p>\n<div class=\"well\">\n<em>So far as is reasonably practicable, every floor in a workplace and the surface of every traffic route in a workplace shall be kept free from obstructions and from any article or substance which may cause a person to slip, trip or fall.<\/em>\n<\/div>\n<p>This means an employer has a specific duty to make sure that floors are not going to be a slip or trip hazard for employees, and this can be enforced with things like training and safety procedures, and regular inspection and maintenance systems.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Public Claims<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Perhaps if you\u2019re out and about in a supermarket, shop, restaurant, or similar, the duty under The Occupiers Liability Act is to enforce a system of inspection and maintenance to take all reasonable steps to ensure the safety or visitors to the premises. Training for employees of the premises should also be in place as well.<\/p>\n<p>In either circumstance, if whoever is in control of the premises has not taken reasonable steps to prevent accidents, you could have a good <a href=\"\/slip-trip-fall-claims\">slip or trip claim<\/a> to make.<\/p>\n<p>Call us <strong>0800 634 7575<\/strong> to get your claim started today.
