- Road Traffic Accidents
With an increased number of motor vehicles on the road, road traffic accidents are perhaps the most common form of injury compensation claim. If you have been injured in a road traffic accident that was the fault of a third party, then you may be entitled to injury compensation to cover any physical or mental injuries, as well as any financial losses which you may have suffered. Whether you are a motorist, cyclist, motor cyclist or pedestrian, we attempt to achieve a fair injury compensation package – even in cases where the third party is not insured.

That′s why our expert team of solicitors are here to make the entire process as clear and as simple as possible. If you can prove negligence on the part of your employer or one of their employees, then you may be able to make an injury compensation claim. We can advise you on a full range of injury compensation claims, from trips, slips and falls, injuries / illnesses caused by industrial machinery, chemicals or heavy lifting through to office-based injuries such as RSI (repetitive strain injury), acoustic shock syndrome and carpel tunnel syndrome.
- Accidents in a Public Place
You may also be able to make a claim for injury compensation if you suffer an accident on public or private land, such as a slip, trip or fall. It is usually the responsibility of the local council or land owner to maintain their property to a safe standard. If it can be proved that the land owner has been negligent in this responsibility, then you may be able to pursue a claim.
