How to Track down a Management Company??

allgirlz

I had a nasty fall in a small retail unit in Waterford on new years eve, I have a fractured bone in my wrist and ache from head to toe! The fall was due to the floor being tiled and wet, now I am not looking for anything from them before anyone starts to give out to me, what I want is for them to at least to put down some mats, as while I will be fine, if it were my mam or another elderly person then they would have surely broken a hip! I just want them to put some safety precautions in place before someone gets seriously injured. So how do I go about finding out who owns it/management company? I have googled it but getting nothing so far.

Did you go in and ask anyone there?

No, am back up in Dublin now and was too sore and shocked at the time to do anything. A girl from the tattoo shop came out to help us but I could not get back up at the time as I was too sore and felt very faint. All I wanted to do was get home, its only now that I am back home with my cast on, that it is occuring to me to report it to the management company as being dangerous before someone seriously gets hurt.

I don't understand why you need the management company. Surely the retail unit is responsible.

Sorry I didn't explain properly it was outside the shops in the corridor, I was walking along the corridor when I had the fall. Don't want to name the place just in case but it is a small group of shops and you can walk through the unit to get through to the street behind if that makes sense?

Maybe your best bet is to contact the health and safety authority explaining the situation to them, I am sure they will be able to notify the relevant bodies responsible.

If you send me a PM ill probably be able to point you in the right direction.

Funfair

Sounds to me like you need to contact a solicitor and get compensated for the broken wrist and the trauma associated if you feel the company was negligent in any way.
Never mind the idiots here that tell you off for filing a claim, if you were injured and someone else was at fault for that injury, you are entitled by law to be compensated.

Jesus lads I know they did wrong not having the place suitable for walking, but to suggest milking it and suing them seems a bit extreme. Is it any wonder why insurance is so expensive in this country!

i take it this is walk way between parnell street and johns street? if so the problem is from greese form bodega resturant as the back doors are just on the corner and the owner of the building is the guy who owns and run rainbow records on new street.

Thanks everyone, I am not pursuing this for compensation reasons. I am fine, bit sore from the impact of the fall but now my wrist has been treated I will be grand in a few weeks.
Sully I appreciate your help, hopefully I will be able to track the owners down and get them to sort this issue out. Thanks again for the replies

Nothing, two head shop style stores opened just before the ban and closed.

Bodega use a unit for storage and that's it.

Thanks a million, just spoke to him. Now he does not own the place outright but is part of a consortium, however he was very helpful and is going to follow this up on my behalf.

I agree with ya Sully, but unfortunately some of these companies do nothing until their hand is forced, ie money.

Firstly let me wish allgirlz a speedy recovery.I am the owner of rainbow records but only part owner of Parnell Court.The floor area in question is made slippy/greasy by staff from the Bodega passing to a storage area in Parnell Court.The matter is being investigated and I will be talking to allgirlz in due course.
