Accidents in Fast Food Restaurants

Almost all of us can claim to have visited a fast food restaurant at some time in our lives. Such places are popular with young and old alike and can be found on most high streets.

Many fast food restaurants do a strong trade catering for children’s parties and often have designated areas and staff to handle these. The restaurant must take extra care to ensure that their premises are safe for use by children when that is a part of their business.

The owners of fast food outlets have a duty to ensure that their customers are not at risk of having an accident whilst they are enjoying their food. The restaurant must have adequate systems in place to ensure that the floors are clean and not wet and posing a risk to customers. They must also ensure that furniture and other fixtures in the restaurant do not pose a risk.

Bartletts have acted for numerous clients who have unfortunately had an accident whilst in a fast food outlet.

Mrs Greenwood

Mrs Greenwood was visiting a well known fast food restaurant with her family. As she made her way to the wash rooms she slipped on liquid on the floor and injured her ankle.

Mrs Greenwood contacted Bartletts and was represented on a No-Win No-Fee basis. Bartletts contacted the fast food company and obtained an admission of liability after providing their representatives with the evidence Mrs Greenwood’s husband who witnessed the accident. Mrs Greenwood was then examined by a consultant orthopaedic surgeon who prepared a report on the ankle injury she had suffered.

Mrs Greenwood received £4,000.00 in compensation when her case settled out of court.
