Shopping centre injuries, which fall under public liability claims, are expected to provide their customers a safe environment, and to do their best to avoid accidents that can be prevented. The reality of shopping centres and supermarkets is that shoppers are often distracted and not looking where they are walking. Because of this, shopping centres owe a duty of care to make sure their floors are properly swept and cleaned, with any spills frequently cleaned up.
The shopping centre's 'duty of care' generally only extends to 'reasonably foreseeable' harm. For instance, if a cleaner leaves their equipment container unattended in a pedestrian area of the center, which then causes a customer to trip and injure themselves - this is foreseeable. On the other hand, if a customer is assaulted by another customer and injured for example - There may legal consequences, but the shopping centre would likely not be liable for compensation.
If you've slipped, tripped or fallen in a shopping centre - CMC Lawyers will act in the, most effective way to ensure you get the compensation for your suffering, and ensure that minimal stress is endured by you and your loved ones.
We can help you achieve compensation, including loss of earnings, pain and suffering, medical expenses, rehabilitation, and loss of life quality.
