Accidents at Work
These are a common occurrence and we have dealt with many successful cases.
It is important to keep a record of all the facts - how/why the accident happened and to obtain a statement from any witnesses. It is also important that the employer makes a suitable record of the accident in the appropriate records and that you retain a copy of that note.
Questions and Answers
If I am involved in an accident and sustain an injury what should I do?
Contact us as soon as possible if you wish to make a claim. Make sure you seek medical help and keep a record of all the relevant facts including dates. If appropriate, we can help you obtain the Police and Health and Safety reports.
How much will my claim cost?
Your solicitors will review the evidence and, if proceeding, will complete the case without charge to yourself or any reduction in the amount you get awarded as damages.
How much compensation will I get?
This will depend on the severity of your injuries and the amount of money you will lose (wages/extra travelling costs/medical help) as a result of the accident. Any future disability, pain or distress will also be assessed. Your solicitor will be able to give you a broad outline of the level of compensation you may receive at the outset after having assessed the facts.
