Making a no win no fee claim

All our claims are made on a No Win No Fee basis, meaning that if you want to claim for your slip, trip or fall, then you don’t need to worry about being out of pocket in the unlikely event that your case is unsuccessful.

Slips, trips & falls at work

According to the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992, employers in the UK are legally obliged to provide a working environment free from slip, trip and fall hazards.
Any employer who fails to reasonably meet this requirement is at risk of one of their employees suffering an injury, which could have been avoided. Our friendly legal advisors are on hand to give you advice if you are worried about making a claim against your employer.

Slips, trips & falls are unexpected, and sustaining an injury can put you out of action for a considerable amount of time. We’re here to help you get back on your feet; give us a call on if you want to make a no win no fee claim, or even if you just want advice on what steps to take next.

What are the common causes of slips, trips & falls?

Slips, trips and falls often occur due to someone else’s negligence. If you’ve been injured through no fault of your own, you are fully within your rights to make a claim. Some of the most common causes of trips and falls in the workplace:

Contaminated floors from leaky machinery and buildings.
Not drying floors or excluding people until the floor is dry
Not dealing with spillages promptly.
Loose, damaged and worn flooring
Insufficient lighting and not keeping walkways and work areas clear of obstructions.
Not being given the right footwear
Overcrowding and trailing cables
