Summary
A recent high court ruling now makes it easier for individuals to seek compensation for accidents in shopping centers by shifting the burden of proof onto store owners regarding how long debris has been present. This aligns with standard cleaning practices recommending rotations every 15-20 minutes. Although the full impact on claims is yet to be seen, the decision benefits previously difficult cases. Injured parties are advised to report incidents, document details, seek medical help, and contact a lawyer promptly.
