What responsibility do supermarkets have to keep shoppers safe?

When we visit a supermarket, we expect it to be a safe place, somewhere we can shop without worrying about being injured. But what happens when a supermarket or shop fails to keep its premises safe, and someone is injured as a result?

Accidents at work: shared responsibility for injuries

Workplace safety is a shared responsibility, especially when employees work on third-party premises. A recent case we handled demonstrates how failures on the part of both an employer and an occupier contributed to a worker suffering injury.

Securing justice for an elderly client after a preventable fall

When walking on a public footpath, most of us assume it is safe to use. But sometimes a small oversight can cause serious harm. For our client, that’s exactly what happened.

The hidden dangers of playgound pranks

School is meant to be a safe place, a place where children learn, laugh, and grow together. But sometimes, what starts as a “bit of fun” on the playground can quickly turn into something serious.

Securing justice and future support for a child injured in nursery accident

For many parents, one of the hardest moments is leaving their child in someone else’s care – whether at a nursery, school or activity club. We trust that professionals will provide a safe environment, but sadly, accidents can and do happen.

Rebuilding life after a motorcycle accident

Motorcycle accidents can have life-changing consequences. In this case study, we explore the journey of a client who suffered a severe leg injury in a road traffic accident, the legal steps taken, and how rehabilitation and compensation helped support his recovery.

Back to school: Playground safety matters

As the summer holidays come to an end, many parents have been busy with new uniforms, school shoes, and the excitement (and nerves!) of another school year. But there’s something else we need to keep in mind as our children return to school: their safety at play.
