<\/span>Broken arm in a slip on a wet supermarket floor<\/h4><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>
A broken arm in a slip on a wet supermarket floor can be painful and have you off work for some time. You may be unable to drive and may even need help doing everyday tasks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nThe supermarket has a duty of care to customers. The management must have a plan for cleaning spillages and a slippery floor on rainy days. You could have a public accident claim* if they breach that duty of care.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nWhen a wet floor is left untended and not clearly marked as a hazard, you may have a compensation claim* if you slip and injure yourself.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/span>Torn ligaments in a fall over rubbish left outside a caf\u00e9<\/h4><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>
Torn ligaments in a fall over rubbish left outside a caf\u00e9 can affect your life and how you look after the kids or get to work every day. You could need physiotherapy and may not be able to exercise or play sports for several months.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nThe caf\u00e9, supermarket, private property owner or office building management should only put rubbish out on designated days and only in approved bins. Rubbish bags and other items must not be left on the footpath and be a danger to pedestrians.<\/span><\/p>\nYou may have a claim* for compensation if you trip over rubbish left on the street and suffer injury like torn ligaments in the arms or legs. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/span>Facial cuts and bruises after a trip on an uneven footpath<\/h4><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>
Any facial cuts and bruises after a trip on an uneven footpath can be unsightly and embarrassing. You may suffer a lot of pain and even have scarring for life when injuring yourself in any public accident.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nThe local council or landowner has a duty of care to users accessing their property. They must maintain the footpaths and keep them safe for members of the public.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
