What to do after an accident at Lidl?

• Report the incident to a member of staff, ensuring a record has been made
• Take photos of any injuries or hazards that caused the accident
• Gather the details of any witnesses to the accident.

Amount of compensation in claims against Lidl

Every personal injury claim is different, therefore meaning that every compensation amount will be unique and is not operated on a 'one size fits all' basis. The amount of compensation that is awarded is determined by looking at two specific factors – general damages and special damages.

Except for children, there is a three-year time limit on making a personal injury claim. This time limit begins from the date that the accident occurred. You should contact us as soon as possible to assess your case.
