Compensation Claims For Accidents At Work

Employers have a legal duty to keep their staff safe and if they fail to do this and you are injured as a result, you deserve compensation. It can sometimes seem scary to make a compensation claim against your employer, as you may worry that you will lose your job or that they might punish you in some other way. Our no win no fee claims solicitors have the years of experience you need to help you get the compensation payment you deserve whilst still keeping a good relationship with your employer.

For you to make an accident at work compensation claim, your employer must have been able to anticipate what happened to you and must not have taken enough steps to keep you safe. Your accident must also have taken place at work and you must have been doing something you would normally be expected to do or something you were asked to do.

This might sound very limiting, but it really isn’t. It just means that you can’t claim for accidents that happen on your way to or from work (unless you are on land owned by your employer). You also can’t make a claim if you were doing something dangerous, such as using machinery, without the knowledge or consent of your employer.

How Much Compensation Is Awarded On Average For Personal Injury Claims?

Although it might seem like a simple question, it is not possible to give an accurate estimate of how much compensation your personal injury might attract without knowing the details of your case. This is because there are so many different factors which will have an impact. In general, however, compensation claims can be divided into two parts.

Compensation claims for all accidents and injuries are in two main parts. The first is to compensate you for the pain and suffering that you have experienced. The guideline amounts for these are ranges set by the Judicial College, and are set nationally and reviewed regularly. These guideline ranges for any particular injury can be very broad, which allows them to take into account the individual nature of your specific personal injury case. Our years of experience helping people just like you with their personal injury compensation claim allows us to give you the best possible estimate of where in this range your injury is likely to fall.

The second aspect to consider when thinking about how much compensation you might receive is any costs, expenses and losses you might have suffered as a result of your injury. The purpose of this aspect of your compensation claim is to make sure that you are not disadvantaged financially as a result of your injury. This can include loss of earnings if you cannot work while you are recovering, adjustments and modifications you need to make to your home or vehicle if your injuries are particularly severe, and the costs associated with any rehabilitation, including treatments that you have needed to take privately, for example physiotherapy. Any other costs associated with your injury can be included here.

Expert help from our dedicated team of personal injury claims solicitors means that you can be sure that you are claim for all of the expenses you are entitled to. This means that you will have the financial support you need to get your life back on track as quickly as possible.

Does It Take Long To Make A Personal Injury Compensation Claim With Personal Injury Solicitors In Worcestershire?

How long a personal injury compensation claim takes to complete depends on the nature of the case itself. We understand that you want your claim resolved as quickly as possible, and we work tirelessly to get you the compensation you need to put your personal injury behind you.

In cases where agreement is reached quickly, the entire case can be concluded in just a few weeks. This requires that the other party accepts liability almost immediately, as gathering evidence and demonstrating liability can add significantly to the duration of the case. It is only possible to complete a case in this period of time if it very straightforward, which usually means that the injuries are relatively minor as well. Cases involving smaller sums of money are often easier to resolve quickly, as the other party has less to gain from fierce negotiations.

Complicated personal injury claims include those which involve multiple people who are all partially responsible for what happened, as well as those with very serious injuries. Cases like that will usually take far longer to be resolved than those which are straightforward. If the claim has to be decided in court, the delays can increase further.

What If I Am Worried About How To Afford My Personal Injury Compensation Claim?

We want you to have access to the expert legal advice you need to have the best chance with your personal injury compensation claim, without needing to put yourself at financial risk or making any up front payments. This is why we offer our services on a no win no fee basis to most of our clients.

If you accept a no win no fee agreement, this allows us to act on your behalf without you having to make any payments at all.

Is There A Time Limit On Making A Personal Injury Compensation Claim?

The deadline for making a personal injury claim following an accident is two years from the date of the accident. Although this can be extended in very exceptional circumstances, almost all cases are resolved within this time limit and exceptions are very rare. If you are approaching this date, it is essential that you contact our no win no fee claims solicitors without delay.

There can sometimes be an advantage in waiting a little while before making a personal injury compensation claim. Some injuries may take a while to fully appear or they may take far longer than expected to heal. It is always worth having conversations with our personal injury solicitors in Worcestershire as early as possible, however, as this gives you the best chance of forming a strong case and getting the compensation you deserve.

Can I Lose My Job As A Result Of Making An Accident At Work Compensation Claim?

It is illegal for any employer to fire an employee for making any kind of accident at work compensation claim. They are not allowed to take any kind of action against you, or to punish you in any way. This includes reducing the opportunities available to you or changing you job in a way that you do not like, unless this is absolutely required as a result of your injuries.

Good employers don’t want to punish their employees for making an accident at work compensation claim. They recognise that your compensation claim is important to allow you to adapt to your injuries and that you were entitled to better protection than you received.

Many of our clients also tell us that making an accident at work compensation claim has helped to make their workplaces safer, for themselves and for their colleagues. Their employers have realised the importance of health and safety policies, and this has led to improvements that have helped everyone working within those companies to feel safer and work more effectively.

It can also be valuable to know that your employer is required to have Employers Liability Insurance. This covers them for any compensation claim made for any accident at work, including an accident at work compensation claim like yours. This means that you do not need to worry that the company will be unable to pay your compensation claim, or that making this payment will lead to the company being unsustainable and you losing your job as a result.

To start your accident at work compensation claim, or to get help if you are unsure, call us on 0800 567 7074 or 0121 565 4317 or claim online now. We are available 7 days a week to help you with your claim.

The Process Of Making A Compensation Claim

To make your personal injury compensation claim, you will follow a simple process.

You will want to make sure that you have access to the correct legal advice and assistance. Our specialised personal injury claims solicitors are able to provide you with all of the help and support you may need and are available 24/7. Call us on 0800 567 7074 or 0121 565 4317 or claim online to discuss your accident and to begin your claim.

We will write to the person to blame for your accident on your behalf. We inform them that you are making a compensation claim for your injuries and that you hold them responsible. We give them a deadline by which they need to either accept that this is true, or provide an explanation as to why they disagree.

If the other side tells us that they do not accept liability (this is known as them disputing liability), we will put together a file of evidence to support your claim. This will include any evidence you have found, as well as anything we gather. It can include a visual record of the event, if one exists, witness statements and expert testimony as to accepted safety guidelines for your industry. Once presented with this information, almost all employers will accept liability.

As soon as the other party has agreed liability, we can begin negotiations to decide how much compensation is fair. This will always be completely your decision, but we will offer you advice and support to ensure that you can be confident in your decisions. The other party will often offer a very low initial amount, known as a lowball offer, to see whether you will accept less than you are entitled to. With our experience, we are able to give you the information you need to identify these kinds of tactics and get the full amount of compensation you deserve for your accident.

Almost all of the personal injury compensation claims we deal with are resolved without needing to go to court. This is because most people are willing to accept liability, once they have been presented with the relevant evidence. It is also usually possible to agree on a compensation amount that seems fair to both sides. If these things are not possible, however, you may need to go to court and ask a judge to decide. In the unlikely event that you are in this position, don’t worry. We will support you throughout, and help you to get the compensation you deserve.

Can I Claim Compensation After My Accident?

Following an accident, many people just like you are left unsure as to whether they should make a personal injury compensation claim. There are a few conditions that are required before you are entitled to make a compensation claim, but they are very simple and most people will be able to claim.

The first thing to note is that you must have sustained an actual injury as a result of your accident. This injury does not need to have been exclusively physical, as psychological damage is also recognised as important. You cannot make a personal injury compensation claim for near misses, however, or if you have an accident but are not injured in any way.

It is also necessary for someone else to have to been to blame for your accident, for you to be able to make a compensation claim. This person or organisation does not have to have been the immediate or direct cause of what happened, but they do need to have been in some way responsible for your welfare and making sure that you are not put at risk. For accidents or injuries that occur at work, it is very easy to fulfil this criteria, as your employer has a legal responsibility to look after your health and safety.

The other party must also have been able to anticipate what happened to you, if they had thought about it sufficiently. This does not mean that they must have had the idea already, or that they must have known that this would happen. Just that a reasonable person who put some effort into thinking about health and safety matters (and who took the time to research appropriately) would have realised that this was a risk.

The last thing to check is whether they have taken sufficient steps to remove the risk, or to minimise the consequences if this is impossible. Even if some safety measures were taken, you may still be able to claim if these were not sufficient.

If you have experienced an accident that wasn’t your fault, we want to help you get the compensation you deserve. Our expert team of dedicated personal injury claims solicitors are here 24 hours a day, so call us on 0800 567 7074 or 0121 565 4317 or claim online today. We can even call you back at a time that suits, you to arrange your free, no obligation consultation.
