Personal Injury Claims

Accidents in Shops and Supermarkets

If you suffer an injury in a supermarket or other shop, and it was not your fault, you may be able to make a personal injury compensation claim.

Common causes of injuries include:

• Obstructions on walking surfaces
• Insufficient lighting
• Spillages on the floor
• Poorly maintained walking surfaces
• Badly fitted carpets or floor coverings.

Whether you are in a supermarket or other shop, the occupier of those premises has a duty to take reasonable care to ensure that their premises are safe for members of the public. This includes keeping walking areas free of obstruction and safe for people to use. If for example you slip on a spillage and suffer an injury, you may be able to make a personal injury compensation claim if the shop can be shown to have been negligent.
