What is a Public Place Accident Claim?

A public place accident claim is when you seek compensation after being hurt in a public area because someone did not keep it safe. In the UK, this process is covered by the Occupiers' Liability Act. It applies to places like shops, streets, parks, and other areas open to the public. The person or organisation responsible (called the “occupier”) has a legal duty to make sure the area is safe for everyone.

If they fail in this duty and you get injured, you may be able to make a public liability claim. This could cover physical and emotional injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, or travel expenses resulting from the accident. Common examples include slipping on wet floors, tripping over uneven pavements, or accidents caused by poorly maintained equipment.

At Callisto Claims, we can help you understand your rights and guide you through the steps to claim fair compensation.

Common Examples of Public Place Accidents We Handle

At Callisto Claims, we help people claim compensation after an accident in a public place. Many accidents in public places happen because someone did not keep the area safe. Our team of expert personal injury solicitors handles many types of cases, including:

● Slips – On wet floors in supermarkets, shops, or public buildings with no warning signs. These slip, trip, and fall accidents often cause serious personal injuries.

● Trips – Over uneven pavements, potholes, or ripped carpets in areas maintained by local authorities or councils.

● Falls – from faulty railings, broken stairs, or poorly lit areas in public spaces.

● Defective equipment or products – such as broken playground gear or unsafe fixtures in public parks.

● Animal-related incidents – dog bites or accidents caused by animals in public areas where the handler was careless.

● Accidents on public transport – including buses, trains, or trams due to driver error or poor maintenance.

If you suffered an injury in any of these situations, you may be able to make a claim. We handle public liability claims on a win-no-fee basis, meaning no upfront cost and no financial risk to you. Our goal is to secure the compensation you deserve for your losses.

General Damages

This covers the pain, suffering, and the effect the injury has on your life. It includes both physical and emotional impact. For example, a broken leg that stops you from working or enjoying your hobbies is part of general damages.

Special Damages

This covers financial losses caused by the accident, such as:

● Lost earnings (including future loss of income)

● Medical bills and prescription costs

● Travel expenses for hospital or doctor visits

● Care and rehabilitation costs

● Home adjustments or equipment you need after the injury

Public Accident Claim FAQs

Q1: How long do I have to make a claim?

In the UK, you generally have three years from the date of the accident to make a public accident claim. It is always better to start sooner. Early action helps gather strong evidence and improves your chances of success.

Q2: Can I claim against the council for a trip?

Yes. Councils have a legal duty to maintain pavements, roads, and public spaces. If you tripped on a broken pavement or pothole, you may be able to claim compensation. We investigate whether the council failed to meet this duty before starting your case.

Q3: What if I were partially at fault?

You may still claim a rule called "contributory negligence." This means if you were partly responsible for the accident, your compensation may be reduced. However, at Callisto Claims, we work hard to secure the best possible result for you.
