Supermarket Slip and Fall
Compensation Claim in Dunfermline
– £7,500 Settlement

A woman from Dunfermline asked for help after slipping in a supermarket. She had gone in for a few basic things and was near one of the chilled aisles when she lost her footing on a wet patch. The fall was quick and awkward. She put her hand out to stop herself and ended up with a painful wrist injury, along with bruising and soreness on one side of her hip.

The effects of the fall continued well beyond the accident itself. She found it hard to carry shopping, do jobs around the house, and keep up with the usual family routine. Even small things became difficult. She also felt uncertain about whether she even had a case, which is common after this kind of accident. A lot of people assume they should just put it down to bad luck and move on.

Once she contacted HD Claims Legal, she was connected with a solicitor who could look at the circumstances properly. The claim was later settled for £7,500, reflecting both the wrist injury itself and the disruption it caused in the weeks that followed.
