Injuries sustained in shopping centre or supermarket accidents often mean time off work, unplanned expenses and financial stress. But we’re here to help. We get to know you and your family to learn about your life before you were injured. We look beyond your injuries, to understand your work, family, social and financial situation. Then we look at what’s changed. Many of our clients’ injuries have led to other life complications and health issues. By getting to know you personally we identify these issues and claim all your entitlements. That’s why you’ll get more compensation with Law Partners on your side.
What can I claim for?
The most common accidents in supermarkets and shopping centres are slips, trips and falls. Common causes of slips, trips and falls in shopping centres include:
- Spills and dropped food items
- Failure to mop up liquid spills as soon as they happen
- Not clearing up litter and debris, especially broken glass
- Not placing non-slip mats in areas where slip hazards are likely
- Failure to place signage down to warn of hazards such as freshly mopped floors or water leaks
- Poor lighting

Your NSW-based Law Partners public injury lawyer will:
Gather evidence of your supermarket or shopping centre injury, which may include photos of the hazard that caused your accident, CCTV footage, statements from witnesses and accident reports from the centre management.
Have your injuries assessed by a doctor. We need medical evidence such as scans and x-rays to prove what injuries you suffered from the accident.
Identify the public liability insurer we’ll be claiming against and submit your supermarket or shopping centre injury claim. If the insurer accepts liability then it’s likely it will offer you a settlement payment.
Most of our claims are settled without the need for court action, but if the insurer rejects liability or we’re unable to settle out of court, we may need to take court action to get your compensation.
Frequently asked questions.
If you’ve been injured in a supermarket or shopping centre, it’s likely your compensation claim will be successful if:
- Your accident could have been avoided if the supermarket or shopping centre management had taken action to prevent it.
- You’ve incurred losses as a result of your injuries, such as lost wages through time of work and treatment costs.
We have extensive experience with Coles, Woolworths, Aldi, Westfield and other shopping centre compensation claims, and we win over 99% of our cases. We can advise you over the phone on whether your claim is likely to succeed.
No win no fee public injury lawyers offer to run your case for you and only get paid when you win. If you choose the right lawyer, it’s an excellent option that allows you to pursue your claim without any risk, but it’s important to check the lawyer’s costs agreement to fully understand what’s covered. With some no win no fee lawyers you can still end up having to pay thousands of dollars in disbursements if your case is unsuccessful. This is because their no win no fee agreements cover their professional fees but not the costs they incur. At Law Partners, our no win no fee, no disbursements guarantee covers all our costs and disbursements as well as our professional fees, so you can pursue your claim with peace of mind.
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 we can’t come to an agreement on the settlement amount, or if the defendant denies liability, then we 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 injury lawyer will keep you informed about your claim regularly and advise you on your options.
