An injury or illness, which is not your fault, in the workplace or in another environment is an unpleasant experience.

Aside from the pain of the injury, you can also make a claim for your inability to work, resulting in a loss of income, permanent damage to bodily parts as well as mental trauma.

We can connect you to firms that cover a comprehensive range of personal injury and accident claims, in different scenarios and situations to ensure you get the compensation you deserve. The most common examples include:

Road Traffic Accident

Accident at work

Creating a safe working environment and having the necessary health and safety measures in place is the responsibility of employers. Unfortunately, certain work conditions such as in factories, offices and warehouses are unsafe, due to employer negligence in enforcing safe working conditions and methods. This is reflected in the astonishing health and safety statistics from the 2014/2015 fiscal year, which included 1.2 million employees suffering from a work-related illness and a total of 611,000 work place injuries that resulted in a loss of 27.3 million working days. If you feel let down by your employer, contact us.

Slip, trip or fall

A slip, trip or fall is usually caused by walking or running on a surface that is uneven, has unsuitable floor covering, is wet, has changes in levels, has loose trailing cables or poor lighting. We appreciate, such accidents painful and unwanted. If you have suffered from a slip, trip or fall that is not your fault, you may be entitled to get compensation.

Overseas accidents

Injuries and accidents abroad are more traumatic and stressful than at home. A holiday is supposed to be a relaxing period of enjoyment and recharge. Dealing with the language barriers and the medical system of overseas countries is an added barrier, notwithstanding the cost of the holiday going to waste. You are entitled to make a compensation claim, even if the incident occurs abroad.

Contact us in order to discuss getting the compensation that is due to you.

Faulty products

An investment into a product that causes you injury can leave a strong feeling of betrayal and mistrust. Electrical shocks from faulty electronics, skin rashes from clothes, sofas and cosmetics, feeble prosthetics and allergic reactions to food and medicine are common examples of grounds you can make a faulty product claim against.

Who can I claim against?

A personal injury claim is made against the responsible party and/or owner who has failed to take appropriate measures to prevent an accident owing to negligence.

How much can I claim?

The quantity of compensation you are entitled to depends on the nature of the injury and illness, the length of recovery and other losses incurred such as loss of income and permanent loss or damage of bodily function. Minor injuries that take a few weeks’ recovery can fetch up to £3,000. More severe injuries to bodily parts that result in a lengthy recovery period and huge losses to income can go well beyond £100,000.

How long do I have to make a claim?

Ideally, a claim should be made and a negligence highlighted as soon as possible to ensure you receive swift medical attention and to prevent others from being inflicted with similar injuries. Furthermore, a longer time gap between incident and claim can potentially lead to an unsuccessful claim and, in certain cases, a claim after three years will not be worthwhile. The earlier you notify us, the better.
