Home accident injuries we handle

Injury types we can help with

Even a "minor" household accident can leave you with injuries that take months to recover from. Whatever you're dealing with, we've handled public place accident claims and home injury cases like yours before.

Broken Bone

Broken bones & fractures

Falls on unsafe stairs, slippery floors, or broken fixtures can cause serious fractures. Arms, wrists, hips, and ankles are especially vulnerable.

Head Brain

Head injuries & concussion

Falls from height, collapsing fixtures, or objects falling from shelves can cause concussion or traumatic brain injury with lasting effects.

Fire

Burns & scalds

Faulty wiring, defective appliances, or scalding from plumbing failures can cause painful burns requiring specialist treatment and skin grafts.

Electric Shock

Electric shock injuries

Poor electrical work or faulty wiring can cause electric shocks ranging from minor to life-threatening. Nerve and tissue damage is common.

Spine

Spinal & back injuries

A fall on unsafe stairs or a collapsed ceiling can cause spinal damage and chronic back pain that affects every aspect of your daily life.

Mental Health

Psychological trauma

Anxiety, PTSD, and fear of being in your own home. The mental impact of a household accident is a real injury that deserves real compensation.

Common questions

Home accident claims FAQ

Everything you need to know about making a home accident claim. Can't find your answer? Call us on 0333 006 8282.

If someone else's negligence caused your home accident, whether that's a landlord ignoring unsafe conditions, a contractor doing poor work, or a manufacturer selling a defective product, you absolutely deserve compensation. Your home should be your safe space, not a place where carelessness puts you at risk.

We see people struggling with medical bills, time off work, and the stress of being injured in their own home. None of that should be your burden. Call us on 0333 006 8282. It's No Win, No Fee¹.

Absolutely. Where your household injury happened doesn't change your right to compensation, what matters is that someone else's negligence caused your accident. Most homeowner's insurance covers exactly this scenario through public liability coverage, so you're not claiming against their personal money.

Your compensation depends on your specific injury and circumstances, there's no one-size-fits-all amount. You'll get money for actual costs (medical bills, lost wages) plus compensation for pain and suffering based on Judicial College Guidelines. Your dedicated solicitor will calculate the exact figure once they've assessed everything properly.

Being partially responsible doesn't end your claim. Most cases get resolved through split liability, if you were 30% at fault, you'll still get 70% of your household injury compensation. We'll work out exactly who was responsible for what and fight for your fair share.

Yes, you absolutely can. Your landlord has a legal duty to keep your home safe, when they fail to maintain appliances, fix dangerous structures, or ignore hazardous conditions, they're liable for your injuries. Faulty boilers, crumbling stairs, broken fixtures, if their negligence caused your accident, they owe you compensation.

You've got three years from your home accident to start your claim. Don't wait though. The sooner you act, the easier it is to gather evidence and build a strong case. Call us on 0333 006 8282 to get started while everything's still fresh.

Home accidents are extremely common. The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents reports that 2.7 million people end up in A&E every year after household injuries. While many are genuine accidents, a significant number are caused by someone else's negligence.

These numbers highlight why it's so important to claim the compensation you're entitled to if you've been injured at home through no fault of your own.
