How hard is it to prove the council’s at fault for a fall?

 

[Ed Marshall]

Proving the council's fault in a fall can be challenging as they need to have breached their duty of care in maintaining safe public spaces. You would need to show that the hazard (e.g., an uneven pavement) was not properly repaired or inspected. Evidence like photos, witness statements, or reports of previous accidents may be helpful.
