What Is a Slip, Trip & Fall Accident Claim?
A slip, trip, or fall accident claim is the legal process of seeking compensation if you have been injured after slipping on a wet floor, tripping over an obstacle, or falling due to unsafe conditions. These types of accidents are some of the most common personal injury claims in the UK and can occur in workplaces, shops, supermarkets, restaurants, pavements, or other public areas.
If you have suffered an injury in the last three years in a slip, trip, or fall that wasn’t your fault, LITKRAFT can help you make a claim and access the support you need to recover.
Who Can Claim After a Slip, Trip & Fall Accident?
You may be entitled to compensation if you were injured due to:
• Wet or slippery floors without warning signs
• Uneven pavements, potholes, or broken kerbs
• Poor lighting making hazards hard to see
• Loose carpets, cables, or cluttered walkways
• Unsafe stairs or missing handrails
• Negligence by employers, local councils, property owners, or businesses
Both employees and members of the public can make a claim if negligence caused the accident.

I am very impressed with the service provided. Thanks to LITKRAFT assistant I was able to prove my innocence. Third party was denying the damages suffered, but we never gave up, resulting in a settlement of compensation that I was really happy with.
If you had an accident – immediately call LITKRAFT. They are true professionals and it really shows, as they can tell you straight away if you have a case. When I had another accident I emailed all details to them and they called me back within 20 min.
Great company, fantastic staff who are just a phone call away to help. They were very patient in explaining every document received from solicitors or doctors. When we first started the claims process, the other party tried to deny liability, but LITKRAFT solicitor fought my case in court and won it. I was delighted with the process and I couldn’t have asked for anything more from LITKRAFT.
