Injuries from accidents at fast-food chains like McDonalds, Hungry Jacks and KFC are quite common, as they tend to be very busy and hazards like spillages can be missed, causing customers to slip and fall. If you’ve been injured at a fast-food chain in a slip and fall or any other accident, and you’ve needed time off work or treatment, you may be entitled to compensation.
Your Law Partners public liability lawyer will gather all the evidence we need to support your claim.
This could include:
When you make a public liability claim, you’re claiming the defendant is liable for your injuries. If the defendant admits liability, then their public liability insurer is likely to offer you a sum of money as compensation – this is known as a settlement. If you can’t come to an agreement on the settlement amount, or if the defendant denies liability, then you have the option of taking them to court and letting a judge decide on the outcome – this is known as litigation.
Most of our claims are settled out of court. Your Law Partners public liability lawyer will keep you informed about your claim regularly and advise you on your options.
Caring for our clients drives everything we do – that’s why thousands of Australians every year choose Law Partners.
