Simpson's Attorneys - We have your legal needs covered

Simpson's Attorneys have over two decades of experience in assisting clients throughout South Africa, with all kinds of legal needs. Public liability claims are one of those legal issues that can be either quick and simple, or long and complicated.

Is your claim valid?

Depending on the incident and whether or not there is a public liability insurance in place, it is not easy to say how long the process can take. Simple incidents such as a slip and fall in a public area, for example, a shopping mall, public transport area or a business, with no major injuries, can be a cut and dry case, should the building or business owner has insurance for this kind of incident. If the client can prove there were no signs pointing to a wet or slippery floor, the case is simple and we can assist you to make a claim after which remuneration will be awarded to the client.

We care about our clients

In more complicated situations, where more than one person is injured, and the injuries are far more drastic, the case can take a little longer to resolve, as a full investigation would need to take place in order to prove negligence of the building or property owner. Other public liability cases can include compensation for dog bites or attacks, where the owner of the dog would be liable for the incident if the dog was not on a leash or if the dog is known to be vicious.

Whatever your situation may be, you can claim for loss of income if you have not been able to work because of your injuries. Pain and suffering from emotional trauma and medical bills can be covered by the public liability insurance cover. If you think you have a case, contact our firm today.

Provide us with all the reports and photographs you have that can add to your case, and we will determine if you have a case to take further or not. We work on a no win no fee basis, so you don't have to pay initially for your claim. We care about putting our clients first and will do whatever we can to make your case a winning one at the end of the day.
