We offer 100% compensation agreements exclusively to our clients
Wet floor claims can actually be very hard to win. The requirements in law, whether it’s in a public place or your place of work, does impose a duty on whoever is responsible for the premises, but the duty that they have is not as strict as you’d think.
Many people are under the impression that you have a solid claim if you slip on a wet floor – in reality, this isn’t the case. But either way, read on for more info on the law and how we can offer you not only a No Win, No Fee guarantee, but a 100% compensation agreement as well!
The Law
Generally speaking, to uphold the laws that can apply, those in control of the premises must take all reasonable steps to prevent people from being injured. When it comes to wet floors, the most common reasonable steps are:
- Regular inspection and maintenance programs
- Staff training and policies for spotting and resolving hazards continuously
- Deployment of wet floor signs and cordons when a hazard becomes apparent
- Mats at entranceways and deploying signs in times of adverse weather
For public places, the law that applies is the Occupiers Liability Act and for workplaces it is Regulation 12 of The Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992.
So how do I win a claim?
We must prove that the persons responsible have failed to take reasonable steps as per their requirement in law. The issue though is that, if they have taken reasonable steps, and they can prove this with evidence like photos, CCTV footage, copies of inspection regimes, training records, and policies etc, they can defend the claim. If they can prove they’re not in breach of the law, it doesn’t matter how badly injured you are or how awful the accident was – they can defend the claim.

Other law firms DO NOT offer 100% – but WE DO!
Because of law changes from April 2013, lawyers cannot recover all of their fees they sued to be able to do so thanks to government legislation reforms. But we all still get paid by the other side, and we simply accept the fees we can still get form the opponent and do not charge you the Success Fee other solicitors will.
Most will take 25% from the case as that’s the maximum they can deduct for the Success Fee which is no longer recoverable. But we agree to deduct 0% for it, so you keep all 100% of your payout!
