one of the best personal injury firms nationwide
Every year there are thousands of avoidable accidents involving potholes, dangerous paving or unsafe playing surfaces and equipment in a park or school.
The Local Authority has a legal responsibility to ensure the safety of members of the public who are using any public space which is looked after and controlled by the Local Authority. Their responsibilities include the maintenance and upkeep of public highways, parks and pathways as well as school grounds and other public buildings.
If you sustain an injury whilst on the highway, street or other public area you may be able to bring a compensation claim against the council. As in all personal injury claims you will have to establish that the Council was at fault by not doing what was reasonable to ensure the safety of the public. These cases are rarely straightforward. That is why it is important to make sure your solicitor is experienced in dealing with the arguments regularly raised by local authorities.
At Ashtons Legal we have a dedicated team of lawyers who have many years of experience dealing with cases of this nature. Call us now if you would like to discuss a potential claim.
