Common Questions
What is an occupiers liability claim?
An occupiers liability claim arises when you are injured on premises controlled by another person or organisation due to their failure to maintain safe conditions. The Occupiers' Liability Act 1957 requires occupiers to take reasonable care to ensure visitors are safe.
Who can make an occupiers liability claim?
Any lawful visitor who is injured on premises due to the occupier's negligence can make a claim. This includes customers, guests, patients, employees, and delivery workers. Under the 1984 Act, even trespassers may have a claim in certain circumstances.
What is the difference between occupiers liability and public liability?
Occupiers liability is the specific legal framework under the Occupiers' Liability Acts 1957 and 1984 that governs the duty of care owed by premises occupiers to visitors and trespassers. Public liability is a broader term covering general negligence claims in public places. Many public liability claims are brought under occupiers liability law.
How long do I have to make a claim?
You generally have three years from the date of the accident to start a personal injury claim. For children, the three-year period does not start until they turn 18. It is advisable to seek legal advice as soon as possible to preserve evidence.
