Trips and falls account for thousands of injuries every year, mainly on public footpaths and pavements or on wet floors in public spaces, or even at work. The result of a nasty fall or slip is often a serious injury and ongoing discomfort or even disability.
If you are unfortunate enough to trip or fall and injure yourself then please do ensure that you make a record of the cause of the accident. This will ensure that we have the necessary evidence to begin your claim. To keep a record of the accident it is advisable to (as soon as possible):
- Take photographs of the defect which caused the fall
- Measure the defect and photgraph the measursements of the defect
- Take names and addresses of any witnesses
- Make a note of the exact location of the accident
At Gard & co we can seek to recover compensation for you and arrange for appropriate rehabilitative treatment when an accident claim is pursued and liability can be proved.
