Bars, pubs and nightclubs are part of the food and drink industry, and according to statistics are four times as likely to have slips, trips and falls accidents as other types of businesses. The common injuries are fractures, head impacts and dislocated bones. The number one cause is slippery surfaces and the dreadful part is that it could have been avoided in the first had the right procedures were in place.

For the owners of bars, pubs or nightclubs that are open to the public, a duty of care is owed to the visitors of their establishments. This means that they should ‘reasonably’, being the legal term, do what they can to protect the public from danger.

In a bar and nightclub, it is likely that you may have been wrongly assaulted by the door staff (bouncers) or injured by a member of the public. This is a type of injury that you may be able to claim compensation for.
Often, a drunken person can become hostile and start a fight which can harm innocent bystanders. If you have been hurt in this way, then this type of assault can be determined as criminal injury. A claim can be defined from the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA) provided that you meet certain criteria. Discuss your circumstances with us and we will tell you if a criminal injury claim is viable.
