Accidents at work - Taylor&Emmet LLP Solicitors

Accidents at work

It’s an unfortunate statistic, that despite improved occupational, health and safety regimes many people are injured in accidents at work every year. These accidents range from minor cuts and bruises to disease or loss of life.

Taylor&Emmet solicitors have extensive experience in dealing with claims arising from workplace injuries. We will pursue a full investigation of the incident and an assessment of compensation for personal injury and any financial loss or expense.

You may be able to make a claim after an accident at work if your working environment was not safe, if another employee has been negligent, if you did not have proper training or safety equipment or if the equipment provided was defective or dangerous.

What can I claim?

The value of your claim will depend on a number of factors including:

The nature of the injury or illness
Whether your child (or you) recover fully from the injury or illness or if it has a long term effect on their health and wellbeing
The amount of any losses you incur as a result of the injury

You can claim compensation for the following things if they are a result of your injury:

Pain, suffering and loss of amenity
Loss of earnings
Medical and nursing care costs
Special equipment needed to carry out daily activities and any costs involved in adapting your home
Other expenses incurred as a result of your injury, for example, travel expenses incurred whilst receiving medical treatment.
