Can I pursue my claim?

I’ve never had much dealings with solicitors and imagine I don’t have the fees they need upfront. So I’ve been considering no win no fee, and this is due to people around me saying I have a claim, but I’m not sure and want advice from people who probs do. 

I recently fell down some stairs in my boyfriends building due to the cleaners steaming the stairs and failing to dry the rubber ledges/put out wet floor signs. I have badly bruised my lower back and bottom (embarrassing) and have a haematoma (sorry if I’ve misspelt it’s what the doctor said when the pain and swelling didn’t subside) and leaving me with pain walking, sitting and laying in bed. However, I haven’t taken time off work, I am still going about my normal life albeit in pain and looking slightly odd shaped. So do I even have anything to pursue?! And if I do, how do I do it?

    Who are you going to pursue ??and do you have details and evidence .
    Suggest advice from CAB before anything .
    What are you expecting for a bruise ?? anything else may require a medical report .
