Injured in an incident on private or public property?

What You Need to Know If You Have Been Injured in a Public Place in the ACT

People in the ACT everyday are injured as a result of someone’s negligence. This commonly occurs in public places where an individual, an organisation, a business or a local authority fail to take care of something that as a result causes a person an injury. For example, at a shopping centre, someone slips and falls as a result of a spilt liquid on the floor.

In these types of matters, public liability insurance paid by the relevant organisation extends cover to them to pay compensation to those injured as a result of their negligence. These claims are referred to as “public liability claims” or “slip and fall claims.”

I would recommend gajic lawyers to anyone of my family and friends. The level of commitment and professionalism to achieving the absolute best outcome for me did not go unrecognised. I received regular emails updating me on the progress of my matter witch was very convenient and gave me piece of mind. I felt supported and protected from begining untill the end settlement. Thank you again to all of the staff at the gajic lawyers Parramatta office.Regards,B. Albert .

Shmeet was my solicitor who was great. The process was very clear and quick for a legal claim, and I was very happy with the result and level of service. I was always kept in the loop with updates and paperwork, which was something I noticed other companies don't do.

What information do I need to provide?

In these types of matters, evidence is crucial. If you have suffered an injury in a public place, do your best to identify and ask for the details of any person who may have witnessed the accident. If your accident occurred at a shopping centre, a hotel or in a public facility there may be CCTV evidence that should be acquired as soon as possible.

It is also vitally important that you seek legal advice as soon as possible in case you require our assistance to obtain relevant evidence to assist in your case.

Timeliness

As with many legal claims, there are strict time limits that apply. This is no different in relation to public liability cases in the ACT.

What amount might I be entitled to receive?

If your injuries have resulted in medical expenses and/or rehabilitation expenses, you may be able to receive compensation for them. Depending upon the facts of your case, you may be entitled to compensation for: past and future medical expenses; past and future economic losses; loss of business profits; care provided by family or friends to help you with your injury; paid care services; travel expenses associated with your medical care; and damages associated with pain and suffering.
