If you’ve been injured in a public place, you may be entitled to compensation through a public liability insurance policy that is already in place to cover these situations.
Many businesses, shopping centres, venues and property owners carry insurance specifically to protect members of the public if an injury occurs due to unsafe conditions or negligence.
At WA Legal, we help you understand your rights and guide you through the claims process with clarity and confidence.
A strong claim relies on clear evidence. This may include:
We help ensure all relevant information is properly collected and presented to support your claim.
Public liability claims are typically made against an insurance policy held by the business, property owner or organisation responsible for the location where the injury occurred.
This means you are not pursuing the individual directly, but accessing insurance that exists to cover these situations.
Compensation is based on the impact of your injury and may include:
We ensure your claim reflects the full extent of your injury, not just the immediate costs.
Most public liability claims are resolved through negotiation with the insurer.
If an offer is made, we help you understand whether it fairly reflects your situation and advise you on the next steps. Where necessary, further action can be taken to resolve the claim.
We’ll provide some advice, and whether we’ll be able to take your case.
