I bet a lot of you out there feel embarrassed or silly if you have a slip or trip in a public place; I know I do. But if the reason for your accident was caused by someone else’s negligence, we at The Injury Lawyers believe you may have a claim for compensation.

An accident can occur at any place or at any time and can cause serious injury. An innocent trip to the supermarket can sometimes end in a trip to A+E due to the carelessness of the supermarket!

Supermarkets; you can either love them or you hate them. Many people favour supermarkets as they have everything under one roof, discounts galore, and plenty of choice. For some, they dread the weekly ‘big’ shop due to the hassle of queuing at tills and queuing in traffic to get in and out of the shop car park.  Whatever your feeling on supermarkets, I can hazard a guess that you would not anticipate having an accident whilst shopping in one that was not your fault.

There are many potential hazards in supermarkets. These can include a spillage that has been negligently left unmopped on the floor, causing a dangerous slip hazard, or an item left on the floor causing a trip hazard, or a poorly stacked shelf causing an item/items to fall on someone.  This is not an exhaustive list, as our clients here at The Injury Lawyers can vouch for having suffered all sorts of accidents whilst in a supermarket.
