I crushed my foot in a well known store due to negligence on their part can i claim them for injuries?

no health and safety person was available and no accident report book,isnt this illegal?

for all the smart asses sending the sarcy comments..it wasnt my fault! iron bedside left unattended got knocked over and landed on my foot..didnt see it coming,kept i hospital,unable to walk for 8 days,thanks for the helpful answers.

you can claim negligence if the store did not take precautions to provide you with a safe environment. You will be able to recover your medical expenses and expenses for any future care, and possibly pain and suffering. Get a lawyer and have them retrieve the store surveillance video before it is discarded.

Good luck

speak to one of the many lawyers who advertise on tv now days on a no win no fee basis. They will give you the best advice.

yea ! as long as u have no drugs in ur system and hold a safe pass

No proof, means plausible deniability,

Negligence or stupidity.

That is the question.

Geesh !
did you crush your own foot or did a store clerk come over to you and smush your toes to smithereens ..... what are you a fruity-la-la

Forget about it. Everyone does make mistakes,you know.

There is no need for Health and Safety to be involved.
Yes it is illegal for there not to be an Accident Report form available.

You have a case, but only if you reported it to the store or they initially treated you.

I would not use one of these 'no win, no fee' groups that advertise on TV.
A good lawyer is all you need.

yes sue them


good luck

if you actually reported when it happened to the manager and there were witnesses then you could sue my mum cut her leg on a broken class shelf in a well known store it was all reported and an ambulance was called she also had independant witness ie not relative and the store settled out of court contact a lawyer not ones on tv they can give you help and advice on how to proceed

You have a very good case, you were kept in hospital and even if you weren't your casualty card is all the solicitors need.
They will apply to the hospital for your medical records on your behalf. It doesn't matter whether or not health and safety were involved or even if an accident book was available.

yes you can make a claim they should have given you an address to contact you can have them on a lot of things get in touch with a layer and they will tell you where to start
