Tripping and Slipping Accidents Tripping and slipping claims are either on private land such as in a shop or nightclub or alternatively on public property, such as over an upstanding paving stone. Tripping and Slipping Accidents - Shops and Nightclubs When you are on private land it is the duty of the owners to keep you safe from harm. That includes preventing you from hurting yourself by slipping on wet floors or spillages on stairs or over broken furnishings. Even if you have been drinking you are not at fault for the accident if we can show that the owner has not kept the premises safe for you. It always helps to have photographs to show the area where you are hurt and details of any witnesses although these are not compulsory.
