Am I Eligible To Make A Compensation Claim With Personal Injury Solicitors For Cambridge?
You probably would like to know when you can use No Win No Fee solicitors for a Cambridge based accident. To have a strong claim for negligence, you will need to be able to demonstrate three things. These are:
- You were owed a duty of care by a third party.
- This third party breached their duty.
- The breach caused you harm or injury.
There are common duties that apply to everyday life, such as an employer’s duty to take reasonable steps to ensure your safety at work, which comes from the Health and Safety At Work Act etc. 1974.
If you use the road, then you are owed a duty by other road users. This duty is that road users must navigate in such a way that harm is avoided to others on the roads. The Highway Code and the Road Traffic Act 1988 must be followed; otherwise, it could be a breach of duty, and if an injury is caused, a claim could be made.
Additionally, you are also owed a duty of care while you are out in public places. This is under the Occupiers’ Liability Act 1957. This means that the person or organisation in charge of a space must ensure the relative safety of members of the public while they are using that premises.
