Public Place Accident Compensation

Many different types of claims can be described as Public Liability claims. At Sinnamon Lawyers, our lawyers for compensation in Brisbane & QLD provide services for personal injury claims that draw upon a range of public liability areas such as:

  • Slip and fall claims
  • Injuries on public and private property
  • Injuries occurring during recreational activities

To support our clients through their legal journey, we offer the skilled representation of our no win no fee lawyers in Brisbane & QLD, ensuring that financial constraints do not impede access to justice.

Most public liability claims are based upon the assumption of a ‘duty of care’ by the landowner, council or occupier of land or premises. Councils, owners and occupiers of commercial and private premises owe a duty of care to take reasonable care for the safety of people who enter onto their property. When that duty of care is breached, recourse is available, and our personal injury lawyers in QLD are skilled in securing the compensation you deserve.

To recover damages in most public liability claim cases, you must be able to prove:

  • The nature of the duty of care owed.
  • Breach of that duty of care.
  • That the personal injury has been caused by a breach of that duty of care.

Public Liability claims have very specific parameters, and are well-legislated. Our team of public liability lawyers at Sinnamon Lawyers are able to assist in claiming compensation for injuries that may have occurred in a public place. If you’ve suffered as a result of such an injury, it’s important to seek guidance from experienced QLD & Brisbane personal injury lawyers who understand the nuances of these claims.
