Road Slips

The highway authority (usually the local council) has a primary obligation to maintain all the roads in its area. This duty extends to pedestrians using the road as well as vehicles.

If you have slipped, tripped or fallen in the road as the result of someone else being at fault then you may have a valid claim for compensation for your injuries.

There are certain factors which need to be taken into account when making a road slip, trip or fall compensation claim and these include:

If the condition of the road was acceptable for the amount of use it gets;

The state of repair of the road was acceptable to a “reasonable” person;

If the highways authority could have expected to have known about the condition of the road;

If the highways authority had taken action within a reasonable amount of time.

Success Stories

“Alkers Solicitors looked after my claim following an accident in my car. Their service was excellent, I was kept updated with the status of my claim every step of the way. They took care of everything for me, arranging for my car to be fixed and for me to see a specialist doctor about my neck injury. I was six months pregnant at the time so it was great not having to worry about anything. You really feel that they actually care about your case and that you are not just on a conveyor belt of claims. The compensation came through really quickly and I also received money for the damage to my vehicle….I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Alkers to anyone who finds themselves needing to make a claim following and accident.”
