How we can help you

Marley Solicitors supports Sussex residents with a wide range of slip, trip, and fall claims, including:

  • Public place accidents: Compensation for injuries on pavements, in supermarkets, restaurants, or parks due to hazards like uneven surfaces or spills, covered under the Occupiers’ Liability Act 1957.
  • Workplace slips and trips: Claims for injuries caused by wet floors, poor lighting, or lack of signage, protected under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992.
  • Private property incidents: Compensation for accidents in rented properties or private premises due to landlord or owner negligence.
  • Serious injuries: Support for severe injuries like broken bones or head trauma, ensuring funds for rehabilitation and long-term care.

Our team will gather essential evidence, including photographs of the hazard, witness statements, and medical records, to build a strong case.
