A public liability claim is a legal action taken by someone who has suffered a personal injury in a public place. These claims are made against individuals, businesses, or organisations whose negligence or misconduct has caused the injury. They typically arise where a duty of care has been breached, such as in the running of a business or the upkeep of public spaces. Common examples include slips, trips, and falls in shops or public areas, as well as injuries caused by defective products. All businesses are required to have public liability insurance to protect against the financial impact of such claims. Our specialist public liability lawyers are here to offer expert advice and support, helping you pursue compensation for your injuries.
