ANKLE INJURY COMPENSATION CLAIM

UK Ankle Injury - Tripping & Slipping Accident Claims

If you have suffered an ankle injury, you may be entitled to claim compensation, depending on the circumstances of the accident. Ankle injuries commonly occur as a result of tripping or slipping in a public place or at work as a result of an unsafe working environment or unsafe working practices. If you sustained the injury through an accident at work, your employer could be liable to pay you compensation. It is your employer’s obligation to ensure that your working environment and training meets with UK health and safety regulations; therefore, should your ankle injury have occurred through negligence on your employer’s part you could be entitled to make an ankle injury compensation claim against your employer.

Responsibility of Owners & Occupiers of Land & Premises

Should you have sustained an ankle injury through a slip or fall on a pavement or road or in a public place or private area, you may also be entitled to claim ankle injury compensation from the person who is the owner or occupier of the land or property or the person who is responsible for maintenance. Owners and occupiers are obliged by law to ensure their premises are reasonable safe for members of the public, so if you suffered an ankle injury as a result of slipping on spilt liquid in the supermarket for example, then the supermarkets owners or operators would be liable to pay damages in an ankle injury compensation claim if they failed to ensure reasonable safety for visitors. Another common way of sustaining an ankle injury is through sport. If you can prove the injury occurred as a result of another player’s deliberate violence, recklessness or negligence or as a result of unsafe pitch or ground conditions, then you may be entitled to make a claim for compensation for an ankle injury against the player involved or against the club or association or owner and occupier of the land or premises concerned.
