Public Liability

A simple trip, slip or fall can result in serious injuries, ongoing medical treatment and time away from work. When an injury occurs because a property owner, business or organisation failed to take reasonable care, you may be entitled to compensation

At Chris Trevor & Associates, we help people throughout Queensland understand their rights and pursue compensation following injuries sustained in public places, private properties and commercial premises.

If you've been injured and believe someone else's negligence may have contributed to the incident, our team can provide clear advice and guide you through the claims process.

Property owners, businesses, councils and other organisations have a duty to take reasonable steps to ensure their premises are safe for visitors.

When they fail to do so and someone is injured as a result, a public liability claim may arise.

Every situation is different, but if negligence contributed to your injury, compensation may be available.
