We acted for a woman who slipped on a wet surface while shopping in a pound shop. She slipped on what she thought was shampoo or oil that had leaked from a bottle on the shelf.
The pound shop were believed to be negligent because they had failed to clean or block off the area and customers were given no warning of the hazard.
As a result of her fall, our client suffered a knee injury, for which she attended her GP surgery and a number of physiotherapy sessions. After a detailed medical examination, it was found that the accident had aggravated lower back and hip problems.
The pound shop offered a settlement of £3,260 in compensation, which she accepted.
If you have suffered a similar injury from a slip or fall in a shop, you may be entitled to a No Win No Fee compensation claim. Contact us today to find out how we can help you.
