Cases are only as strong as the evidence that can be produced to support them. Although our Team are experts in obtaining evidence and preparing cases, it is crucial that you take steps to preserve evidence yourself early on.
If safe to do so you should:
- take photographs of the hazard and the surrounding area
- note details of any witnesses or surrounding CCTV cameras
- keep copies of any relevant documents (such as receipts, invoices) or any physical evidence.
In some situations, such as a case involving a road or road-related area, you may be required to formally report the incident with the responsible body.
