If you've slipped on a wet floor in a shop, restaurant, office, or other public or private premises and there were no warning signs or proper maintenance, you could have a right to claim. There are no upfront fees.
Wet floor injury claims arise when someone slips and is injured due to surfaces made hazardous by spills, cleaning, weather, or poor maintenance, especially where no proper warning signs or preventative measures were in place.
If the accident wasn't your fault, and the owner or occupier of the property failed to keep you safe, you may be able to claim compensation for your injuries and related losses.
Even if your accident seemed minor at first, injuries can worsen over time. We can help you understand your rights and start your claim today.
You pay nothing to start your claim and nothing while it runs.
We only handle personal injury and clinical negligence claims, from first advice through to court if it comes to that.
If your claim succeeds, the other side pays your legal costs and you keep 100% of your compensation.
Our legal insurance covers the costs if your claim doesn't succeed.
We'll look at what happened and tell you honestly whether you have a claim. There's no pressure to go ahead.

It's a personal injury claim you can make if you slipped on a wet surface and were injured due to someone else's negligence.
Yes. If there was no visible warning sign or hazard control, and you were injured as a result, you may be able to claim.
Shops, supermarkets, restaurants, public toilets, offices, hospitals, and entrances during wet weather are common places.
Fractures, sprains, head trauma, back injuries, and wrist injuries are among the most common.
You may still be able to claim under employer liability. Employers have a duty to keep the workplace safe and dry.
Photos, witness details, medical reports, accident book entries, or CCTV footage are all helpful. We can help you gather this.
