Yes. The key to succeeding in a public liability claim is proving that another party was negligent and their negligence caused your accident. If your injury took place on someone else’s property there may be a specific act that the property owner or occupier took which caused your injury or there may have been an omission, for example a lack of maintenance to the property, which caused or contributed to your accident.
If your claim is based on an allegation of negligent omission, then it is important to also establish that the occupier knew or should have known of the defect that ultimately caused your accident and that they had an opportunity to do something about it.
