Personal injuries are claims in torts law where the wrongful act resulted in injuries to the wronged person. It should be noted that there are two very important aspect of that statement. One is the wronged person. Local Solicitor see many instances where a person has been wronged i.e., injured. That person would come to Local Solicitor with one question, do I have a claim? Local Solicitor accept that they say they have been injured. Local Solicitor also accept that they have a reason why they were injured. However, what we do not see, sometimes, is the other aspect of the statement i.e., the wrongful act.

Local Solicitor appreciate that people suffer injuries but when somebody asks, do I have a claim? we ask what the wrongful act was. A person may have been wronged, if there is no wrongful act a claim for compensation cannot succeed.

Local Solicitor can provide you with advice and guidance. The amount of compensation that you are entitled to will depend on the injury sustained. The following are some of the types of case we have dealt with:

• Car Accidents
• Slip and Trip
• Workplace Accidents
• Children and personal injury

If you have been involved in an incident please seek medical assistance, preferably from your own doctor.

If you have been injured in a slip or trip type situation you could be entitled to compensation as the entity responsible for the property must take reasonable care to ensure that the property is a safe place for people to be. The law divides those who may be entitled to compensation for injuries into three types: visitors, recreational users, and trespassers. In relation to visitors, the owner/occupier of the property must take reasonable care to ensure that the visitor dopes not suffer injury or damage while on the

property. The responsibility towards a recreational owner or trespasser while it exists it is considerably less that that owed to a visitor.
