Who do I claim against?
If you have an accident at work then your claim will probably be against
your employer.
If you have a road
accident you can claim against the other
driver, they will usually be insured and
their insurance company will end up paying.
If you trip on a pavement
it may be the local council that you sue.
If the accident occurred
on private property you may have to sue the
owner of the property.
If you slip on flooring at
for example, a supermarket then you may have to sue the supermarket or the person
who owns the property where you were
injured.
You may have to sue the
manufacturers if you have caught an illness
because of a chemical or product. Or you
may be able to sue the company that sold or
gave you the chemical or product.
If it is a medical
accident you may have to sue the hospital
involved or your GP, or even your dentist.
They will all usually have insurance to
cover claims made by patients.

correct person or organisation to sue if you
have a claim.
