Slip, Trip, And Fall Claims

slip and fall Injury Claims

Slip, Trip & Fall Claims

Had a slip, trip, or fall at work? You may be entitled to compensation.

Slip, trip, and fall injuries are among the most common workplace accidents in Dublin. Wet floors, uneven surfaces, poor lighting, cluttered walkways, and missing warning signs are all hazards your employer is legally required to manage. When they don’t, the consequences can be serious, broken bones, head injuries, ligament damage, and long-term mobility issues.

At WorkClaims.ie, we’ve helped hundreds of workers across Dublin secure compensation for injuries that weren’t their fault. If your employer failed to maintain a safe working environment, you have the right to claim for lost earnings, medical expenses, and the pain and suffering caused by your injury. We handle the claims process and explain the applicable fees and costs before you proceed.

We handle the full claims process for you:

  • Assessing honestly whether you have a valid claim
  • Gathering the evidence that wins these cases - medical reports, accident records, witness accounts
  • Submitting your claim to the Injuries Resolution Board correctly and on time
  • Negotiating with the insurer so you are never pressured into accepting less than your claim is worth
  • Pursuing your case through the courts if a fair settlement is not offered

Time limits apply - in most cases a claim must be started within 2 years of the injury, so get advice early.

Why Representation Matters

In slip and fall cases the employer's side often argues you were careless - and the evidence gathered in the first weeks decides that argument. A well-prepared claim settles more often and settles higher. In our experience, 80% of claims resolve without going to court.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much compensation can I claim for a back injury at work?

It depends on the injury. A minor sprain may settle for €10,000-€15,000, while fractures or head injuries can reach €40,000-€100,000+. We’ll assess your case and give you a realistic estimate.

Photos of the hazard, an accident report from your employer, medical records, and witness statements all strengthen your case. Even if you don’t have all of these, get in touch, we can help you build your claim.

Yes. In Ireland, contributory negligence may reduce your payout but doesn’t prevent you from claiming. If your employer’s negligence played a role, you still have a valid case.

Most cases settle within 12-18 months, though complex cases can take longer. We keep you updated at every stage and push for the fastest resolution possible.
