Pavement Accidents

If you have been injured as a result of tripping on a defective pavement that was not your fault, you may be able to make a claim. Councils are under a duty of care to ensure that pavements are in a safe condition for the public to use.

Our specialist lawyers have recovered millions of pounds in compensation for people who have tripped on a pavement through no fault of their own. Our lawyers have significant experience in dealing with minor injury claims through to catastrophic life changing injury claims.

What should I do if I have been involved in a tripping accident on a pavement?

  • If possible, take photographs of the area and measurements if appropriate.
  • If you have tripped over a defect in the pavement, do not report the accident to the Council until you have spoken to us.
  • Get any witness details.
