We will work with you to collect all the information required so we can confidently advise you of the best approach to take.

Our team is also experienced in dealing with matters involving large organisations and local councils.

Can you sue for falling downstairs and can you sue for slipping on a wet floor?

You may be entitled to sue.

If the stairs or steps were worn, not maintained, or there was some other defect or circumstance at play, you may be able to prove the fault of the occupier or contractor if you fall down steps or stairs.

As to the wet floor scenario, if there was no or no inadequate system of cleaning, then you may be entitled to sue for a wet surface.

We usually ascertain these circumstances through a legal process called ‘discovery’.

Our team will help you to determine if you can sue for falling downstairs and if you can sue for slipping on a wet floor based on the details of the case.
