Work Accident Solicitors
If you've been injured in an accident at work, this can not only impact your ability to do your job, either in the short or long-term, but also your ability to undertake your normal daily routine, from driving or walking to work to partaking in leisure activities and doing everyday tasks. Worse still, the effects of a serious workplace injury can be completely life-changing, where you may be left with significant ongoing symptoms and unable to work at all.
In cases where injury has been sustained in consequence of an accident at work, and where your employer can be held responsible for that accident, either in part or in full, you may be eligible to claim compensation, typically through your employer’s insurers. Your employer is under a duty to take reasonable care to ensure your health and safety at work, such that they will be held liable for any injury or losses arising from a breach of that duty, including a failure to provide adequate training, protective equipment or a safe working environment.
A successful claim for employer's liability could include damages to compensate you for any pain, suffering and loss of amenity arising out of your workplace injury. It could also include any past and future loss of earnings, the cost of care and assistance both received and required, any medical or travel expenses, and any other out of pocket expenses. In cases of serious injury, you may even need to claim for the cost of adaptations to your home or vehicle.
What We Do For Our Clients
At Farnworth Rose Solicitors we have extensive experience in pursuing claims for a wide range of injuries arising out of all kinds of accidents at work, including slips and trips, falls from heights, being struck by or caught in moving plant and equipment, heavy manual lifting, repetitive strain, exposure to harmful substances, fires and explosions, and much more.
Where liability is denied by an employer, our team of highly experienced lawyers will work hard to secure an admission of fault or, where necessary, robustly pursue a claim on a client’s behalf through the courts. Equally, we consider every aspect of a client’s claim, from the extent and effect of their injury to all financial losses arising out of the accident. Where needed, we will also facilitate access to any support and treatment to help with a client’s rehabilitation.
