Information Required for Supermarket Accident Compensation
What to do if you have an accident in a supermarket or shop
As with most personal injury compensation claims, there are a number of steps you should take to help you make a no win no fee* supermarket accident claim.
Record your accident in the supermarket accident book
If you are unfortunate to have an accident in a supermarket or a shop, it is important that you report the accident to the supermarket or shop in question. All supermarkets and shops should have an accident book, and a report of your accident should be filled out in their accident book.
Record details of any witnesses
If there are any witnesses to your supermarket or shop accident, it is a good idea to try to make a note of their name and telephone number. If you do go on to make an accident claim, a witness can be used to verify your accident.
Take photographs of the scene
Although it may not always be possible, if you are involved in an accident in a supermarket or shop, photographs make excellent evidence. Therefore if you slip on a puddle of water or trip over a damaged display unit, taking photos of the area on a mobile phone will act as good evidence if you decide to make an accident compensation claim.
Seek medical advice
In order to make a personal injury claim for a supermarket or shop accident you must seek medical advice for your injuries. It is therefore important that you visit your GP or the hospital as soon as possible
