Trip And Slip

Trip and Slip are the terms used to describe accidents which happen through tripping or slipping. Examples of personal injury claims which Direct 2 Solicitors specialist solicitors have dealt with include:

• A lady who tripped over a tree trunk root protruding through the tarmac of a pavement sustaining a broken arm
  
• A young boy who slipped on a grape in a supermarket and injured his back
  o A man who tripped in a large pothole in a cul-de-sac fracturing his ankle
  
• A worker who slipped on ice after parking his car in the company's private car park, breaking his leg in the process.

We have many years experience of handling these claims, and can use our knowledge to give you the best chances of success. All of this whilst you are safe in the knowledge that if you use our services and do not win your claim, you do not have to pay a penny to us for your legal costs.

How long do I have to make a trip or slip personal injury claim?

The most important point here is that you must make the claim as soon as possible after the accident. It is vital for the chances of your trip and slip personal injury claim to succeed that photographs and measurements are taken as soon as possible following the accident. Any delay in notifying your claim can lead to evidence being removed by weather or repairs and may damage your prospects of successfully claiming.

In addition the law states that in most cases you have three years from the date of an accident to make your personal injury claim. However, in some circumstances this can be extended for an even longer period, for instance if you were not 18 years old at the time of the trip or slip. If you are in any doubt, please call us, email us, or complete our online claim form, and we will be in touch with you promptly to give you advice. There is no charge for assessing your claim, so you have nothing to lose and much to gain if you can make a successful claim.

How much personal injury compensation will I receive for my injuries?

Every claim is different. However, there are guidelines issued by the courts for solicitors. All 'Direct 2 Solicitors' solicitors are experts in handling accident claims and know how to use these guidelines to ensure you receive the right amount of compensation for your injuries. You will be advised once initial evidence has been collected as to the likely level of the award of compensation for your personal injury claim.
