What Is An Accident At Work Claim?

Your employer is legally obliged to ensure your safety while you are at work. Their obligation is to do all that is reasonably possible to prevent their employees from suffering harm.

Some common examples of accident at work claims include the following:

Falls From Height

Falls from height at work can cause serious injuries. Some occupations, like scaffolding and window cleaning, necessitate working at height routinely. Others, like office work, might require working from a height on occasion, such as climbing a ladder to retrieve files from a high shelf. Whatever the circumstances, if you sustain an injury after a fall from a height and your employer is to blame, you may have cause to make an accident at work claim.

Slips, Trips, And Falls

Employees can slip, trip, or fall at work for a number of reasons. For example, they may slip on oil or water that has been spilt and not cleaned up or fall down a staircase that is not adequately lit.

If you slip, trip, or fall at work due to your employer’s negligence, you may be entitled to compensation.

Defective Work Equipment Claims

Defective work equipment can cause serious accidents. Employers have a number of legal duties regarding the equipment they provide for their employees to use. These include ensuring the equipment is fit for purpose and keeping it adequately maintained.

If you are injured as a result of using faulty equipment at work, you may be able to bring an accident at work claim.

How Much Compensation Will You Receive For An Accident At Work Claim?

The amount of compensation you can expect to receive if your accident at work claim succeeds depends on the circumstances.

Like all personal injury compensation, accident at work compensation comprises two distinct elements: General damages and Special damages.

General damages compensate the victim for their pain, suffering, and loss of amenity. The amount of general damages depends on the extent of your injury and how it impacts your daily life. Our expert personal injury solicitors will be able to give you a feel for the general damages appropriate in your case when they have had a chance to consider your situation.

Special damages compensate the victim for the financial losses they have sustained due to their accident. Those losses might comprise loss of earnings, medical expenses, and travel costs.

Most accident at work claims are settled before they reach trial. Some settle before a legal claim is issued. Our personal injury solicitors are specialist negotiators and frequently achieve excellent settlements in accident at work claims on behalf of our clients.

Is There A Deadline For Making An Accident At Work Claim?

Yes, strict deadlines apply to accident at work claims. Once these deadlines, known as ‘limitation periods’, expire, you cannot bring a claim, regardless of its merits. Accordingly, understanding the deadline applicable in your case is crucial.

Most accident at work claims must be made within three years of the date of the accident. If you only become aware of the harm the incident caused at a later date, you will have three years from the date of knowledge to bring a claim.

If you believe you may have cause to make an accident at work claim, you should take legal advice as soon as possible to ensure you do not miss the deadline.

How Can You Fund An Accident At Work Claim?

At Bartlett’s, we firmly believe that anyone who has been injured at work through no fault of their own should be able to make an accident at work claim, whatever their financial situation. That’s why we act for most of our clients on a no win, no fee basis.

Under a no win, no fee arrangement, you only pay our costs when you win your case, either at trial or through a settlement. At that stage, you pay the amount set out in your no win, no fee agreement with us, which can be no more than 25% of the compensation you receive.

We’ll talk you through the terms of your no win, no fee agreement and ensure you are happy with its terms before you sign. We’ll then work tirelessly to secure you the compensation you deserve.

I Had An Accident At Work What Are My Rights?

Anyone who has had an accident at work has a variety of legal rights. They include the following:

• The Right To Sick Pay.

If your accident at work renders you unable to do your job, you are entitled to sick pay while you recover in the same way you would be had your accident occurred elsewhere. To establish the extent of your rights in this regard, you should check your Contract of Employment.

• The Right To Remain In Your Job And Not Be iscriminated Against.

Some people worry about how an accident at work might affect their job or career prospects. Rest assured; your employer cannot fire you or discriminate against you in any way for having an accident at work or bringing a personal injury claim against them. The only potential exception is if your accident resulted from your own gross negligence. If you believe that your employer fired you as a result of your accident or subsequent personal injury claim, you could bring unfair dismissal proceedings against them.

Your employer should have Employers Liability Insurance in place to cover any compensation they have to pay out, so no employees will shoulder the burden.

• The Right To Compensation.

Your employer has a number of legal obligations when it comes to keeping their workers safe. For example, under the Health and Safety Act 1974, if your employer fails to provide a safe working environment and you are injured as a result, you are entitled to compensation.

I Had An Accident At Work What Are My Rights To Compensation?

If your employer fails to comply with their legal duties to keep you safe, you may be eligible for compensation. The amount to which you are entitled depends on the facts of your case.

Compensation in accident at work claims comprises two elements, known as ‘general’ and ‘special’ damages. ‘Damages’ is simply the legal term for compensation.

General damages are designed to compensate you for what the courts call your ‘pain, suffering, and loss of amenity’. While there are guidelines to assist personal injury solicitors and judges in ascertaining the range of compensation suitable for specific injuries, these are only a starting point. The court will go on to consider how the injury impacted the specific claimant (the person making the claim). As a result, the compensation awarded in two cases involving very similar injuries may be very different if their impact on one claimant was more severe than on the other.

Special damages are designed to compensate you for the financial losses stemming from your accident. Special damages are usually easier to calculate than general ones since they are more readily identifiable.

Examples of losses that might comprise your special damages claim include any loss of earnings, pension losses, medical and rehabilitation expenses, and travel costs.

Everything good, handled well – vary satisfied with the service

How We Can Help

Our personal injury solicitors will gather evidence to support the compensation claimed in your case. That evidence will likely include items such as expert medical reports detailing the nature of your injuries and your prognosis, wage slips to prove how much income you lost due to being unable to work, and receipts for any medical treatment you received.

We act for most of our personal injury clients on a no win, no fee basis. This means that you can pursue your accident at work claim with no financial risk since you only pay our costs when you win your case. At that stage, you pay us the amount detailed in the no win, no fee agreement you enter into us at the outset of your matter. That amount cannot be more than 25% of your compensation, so you can be confident that you will still receive the majority of the amount you are awarded.

We also offer a free, no-obligation initial enquiry service where you can discuss your case with one of expert solicitors and assess your options before proceeding. If you decide to make a claim, we’ll fight your corner every step of the way, making sure you secure the compensation you need and deserve.

What Do Our Accident At Work Solicitors Do?

Our accident at work solicitors deal with all types of no-fault accidents at work, including:

• Slips, Trips, And Falls.

Slips, trips, and falls are some of the more common workplace accidents. Inadequate lighting, spilt liquids, and cluttered corridors can all contribute to the risk of sustaining an injury due to a slip, trip, or fall at work.

Your employer should take reasonable steps to reduce the risk of slips, trips, and falls among their workers. For example, they should ensure all areas are adequately lit and use appropriate signage around spillages they’re made aware of. If your employer fails to do so and you are injured as a result, our accident at work solicitors will help you claim the compensation you’re entitled to.

I was very impressed by the speed and diligence with which my case was handled

- Phyllis

• Falls From Height.

Falls from height can result in injuries ranging from minor bruising to catastrophic brain damage. Some workers, such as those in the construction industry, are more likely to fall from height while at work, but anyone who climbs on a table or uses a ladder to retrieve something may be at risk.

Your employer must ensure that processes are in place to mitigate the risk of their workers falling from a height. For example, they should ensure all equipment is appropriately maintained and safe to use and provide ongoing training on the appropriate use of such equipment.

If your employer’s safety practices fall short of what could be deemed ‘reasonable’ and you are injured as a result, speak to our accident at work solicitors. We will consider the circumstances of your accident and advise on the possibility of making a personal injury claim against your employer.

• Handling, Lifting, And Carrying Accidents.

Many jobs require workers to regularly lift, push, carry, or pull heavy objects. If proper precautions aren’t taken, these actions can cause immediate injuries like strains and sprains as well as long-term conditions.

Your employer should put reasonable measures in place to reduce the risk of their employees suffering an injury due to manual work. For example, they might offer regular training on how to perform your role safely. If your employer does not do what is reasonable to prevent an accident and you suffer an injury, our accident at work solicitors are here to help you bring a personal injury claim for the compensation you deserve.

• Machinery Accidents.

Many types of machinery have the potential to cause accidents if not properly maintained and used. Sometimes, those accidents result in minor injuries, such as cuts. Other times, the injuries can be far more severe, like crushing injuries and amputations.

Your employer has a legal duty to take reasonable steps to ensure the safety of any workers using machinery. For example, they should provide regular training to anyone operating machinery and undertake regular inspections to confirm the machinery is fit for purpose.

How Do Our Accident At Work Solicitors Charge?

We are committed to ensuring that anyone injured in an accident at work can hold their employer to account for their failings and receive the compensation they deserve. We understand that legal costs can be a worry for many clients, so we act for most of our personal injury clients on a no win, no fee basis.

When we act for you on a no win, no fee basis, we agree not to charge you any legal fees until such time as your claim succeeds. At that stage, you agree to pay us the sum set out in your no win, no fee agreement. That sum can’t be more than 25% of the compensation you receive, either following trial or, more likely, through settlement.

The effect of no win, no fee arrangements is that you are able to make a personal injury claim against your employer without taking on any financial risk.

In addition to helping you secure compensation, our no win, no fee accident at work solicitors can help you in a variety of other ways, including:

• Arranging An ‘Immediate Needs Assessment’.

Where necessary to establish your immediate rehabilitation needs, we may arrange for you to undergo an ‘Immediate Needs Assessment’, also known as an INA.

• Accessing Rehabilitation Services.

In some cases, we may be able to help you access the rehabilitation support you need to begin your journey to recovery. The other side is usually responsible for covering the costs of any treatment you receive.

• Securing An Interim Payment.

Personal injury compensation is usually paid at the end of the case. However, given that personal injury claims can take some time to resolve, there may be scope to request what is known as an ‘interim payment’ from the other side.

We can request interim payments to cover items such as medical expenses, loss of income, and transport costs.

• Holding Your Employer To Account.

Making a personal injury claim against your employer is not only important to ensure you recover the compensation you deserve, but it also ensures your employer’s failings do not go unchecked.

Holding your employer to account can help bring about positive changes within their organisation and reduce the risk of others falling victim to shoddy work practices.

How Do Our No Win No Fee Accident At Work Solicitors Charge?

Solicitors usually charge their clients periodically as the matter progresses. This means that every so often, you receive a bill for the work your solicitor has carried out on your matter to date. At the end of your case, your solicitor will send a final bill covering all the work they have done and have not yet charged for.

No win, no fee arrangements are different. When your solicitor agrees to represent you under a no win, no fee agreement, they accept that they will not receive a penny in fees until you win your case.

Your no win, no fee agreement with us will specify the amount you will pay us when your claim succeeds. We will ensure you understand and are happy with that amount before you sign the agreement. The amount cannot be more than 25% of the compensation you receive for your accident at work.

How do our no win no fee solicitors get paid when we settle your case out of court?

The vast majority of the accident at work claims are settled through negotiations between our accident at work solicitors and the other side’s legal team. We are highly experienced negotiators and frequently negotiate extremely favourable settlement terms for our clients.

If your claim is settled before trial, it will count as a win for the purposes of your no win, no fee agreement.

Why Do We Accept No Win No Fee Accident At Work Claims?

Some clients express concerns over solicitors acting on a no win, no fee basis, believing it too good to be true and suspecting that there must be a catch. Rest assured, this is one of those rare instances in life where everything really is as it seems. You will not pay a penny towards our legal fees unless and until your claim succeeds.

We accept no win, no fee accident at work claims because we strongly believe that everyone who has been injured through no fault of their own should be able to hold those responsible to account and secure the compensation they deserve.

To protect us and you, we will only accept your case on a no win, no fee basis when we believe it has a strong prospect of success. Our vast experience in accident at work claims makes us ideally placed to assess the merits of a case, so you can be confident that our assessment is as accurate as it can be.

Do You Need A Work Accident Lawyer?

You can make a work accident claim without legal representation if you wish. If you do so, you will be known as a ‘litigant in person’.

Personal injury law is complex and full of pitfalls for the unwary, so litigants in person can be at a distinct disadvantage. Without an understanding of the law and experience of the litigation process, crucial steps like valuing your claim and gathering evidence can be incredibly tricky.

We understand that legal costs are a concern for many people, which is why we act for most of our personal injury clients on a no win, no fee basis. This means you can bring your claim with support from an expert work accident lawyer and only pay our fees when you win.

Martin - Thank you so much for all you have done for me and making my claim successful. I will always be very thankful for what I have received. Once again many thanks

What Will Your Work Accident Lawyer Do?

Your work accident lawyer will run your case from start to finish. Just some examples of the tasks they will undertake include the following:

• Advise You On The Merits Of Your Claim.

Not all accidents at work warrant a personal injury claim. Rather, it must have occurred due to your employer breaching their duty to keep you safe at work. Making a claim in circumstances that do not justify doing so exposes you to being ordered to pay the other side’s legal costs of having to defend the matter. Accordingly, ensuring your claim has merit is crucial.

Your work accident lawyer will review the circumstances of your accident and advise on the strength of your claim. You can then proceed with peace of mind that your claim has good prospects of success.

• Prepare And Send A Letter Of Claim To The Other Side.

All accident at work claims begin with an accident at work lawyer preparing and sending a letter of claim to the other party.

The letter of claim must include specific information, including the nature of your injuries and the amount of compensation you seek. The letter of claim is a vital step in any personal injury claim, so getting it right is essential.

Our work accident lawyers have vast experience in preparing letters of claim. We will ensure the letter meets all relevant legal requirements and provides enough information for the other party to understand the case against them.

• Collate Evidence.

Evidence is key in any personal injury claim. For your claim to succeed, you’ll need to prove that everything you say is correct and accurate. Doing so requires gathering extensive evidence.

For example, you’ll need evidence to support your damages claim. So, if you were unable to work as a result of your accident, you’ll need to provide wage slips and other documentation to establish your loss of earnings.

Your work accident lawyer will advise you on the evidence required to support your case and assist you in gathering it.

• Obtain Expert Evidence.

Expert evidence often plays a crucial role in personal injury claims. Specifically, many cases hinge on the evidence of medical experts. Your work accident lawyer will have a network of trusted experts whose expertise they can call on to assess your condition and provide an opinion on your injuries and likely prognosis.

• Value Your Claim.

Understanding the true value of your claim is essential for several reasons. For example, how much your claim is worth dictates the court procedures you must follow. Furthermore, without knowing how much you could expect to recover at trial, you cannot properly assess the adequacy of any settlement offers the other side makes.

Valuing a claim can be a complex task. Your work accident lawyer will calculate not only your past losses but also seek to place a value on the compensation you require to cover your future needs. Sometimes, this necessitates the involvement of a specialist forensic accountant.

Once you’ve placed a value on your claim and received your compensation, you can’t go back later to claim more. Accordingly, the importance of working with an experienced work accident lawyer who can accurately calculate the compensation you deserve cannot be overstated.

• Negotiate With The Other Side.

Most personal injury claims are settled through negotiation between the parties’ legal teams or alternative dispute resolution methods like mediation. Our work accident lawyers are specialist negotiators who frequently secure excellent settlements for our clients. We’ll ensure you do not accept a settlement offer that does not accurately reflect the true value of your claim.

• Prepare Your Case For Court.

In the unlikely event your claim does not settle before trial, your accident at work lawyer will ensure your case is as robust as possible and work with an experienced barrister to present it in the best possible light in court.

Who Is Responsible For Council House Damp?

Council house providers have numerous legal obligations with respect to the properties they let to tenants. All properties must provide reasonable warmth, be in reasonable repair, and be fit to live in. If there is mould and damp in your home, your housing provider may well be in breach of one or more of these obligations.

Furthermore, landlords are responsible for ensuring that the structure and exterior of the homes they rent out are maintained. Sometimes, the presence of damp in a home indicates structural defects, which your landlord is legally obliged to fix.

Landlords are sometimes quick to blame tenants for any damp issues that arise in rented accommodation. For example, they may claim that the damp has been caused by you drying your washing indoors or failing to adequately heat your home. However, the government has made it clear that this is manifestly unfair and that a mould and damp problem should not be blamed on a tenant’s ‘lifestyle choices’. It is up to the landlord to investigate and address the underlying issue, such as inadequate ventilation or insulation.

When Are You Eligible To Make A Council House Damp Compensation Claim?

Before you can make a council house damp compensation claim, you must notify your housing provider about the issue and allow them a reasonable time to fix it. If they fail to do so, you should take legal advice from specialist housing disrepair solicitors like us as soon as possible. Damp and mould can cause a myriad of health issues, both physical and mental, so prompt action is essential to protect you and your family.

Our housing disrepair solicitors will begin by assessing your situation and advising on your eligibility to make a council house damp compensation claim. We’ll then contact your housing provider to remind them of their legal duties and demand that the issue be remedied. If you’re entitled to council house damp compensation, we’ll set out the sums due and require the housing provider to pay them by a specified date. Often, receipt of a letter from a firm of solicitors like us is enough to encourage housing providers to take the necessary action without us having to take the matter further.

If your housing provider fails to remedy the issue and pay the council house damp compensation to which you are entitled, we’ll advise you on the process involved in issuing a claim and guide you through the proceedings, fighting your corner every step of the way.

How Much Council House Damp Compensation Will You Receive?

The amount of council house damp compensation you can expect to receive depends on the circumstances of your case. Examples of the types of factors that a court takes into account include the following:

The severity of the issue.
How long you’ve had to live with damp.
Whether the damp has impacted your health.
Whether the damp has affected your property, such as furniture or clothing.

Our housing disrepair solicitors will review the evidence in support of your council house damp compensation claim and advise on the likely amount of compensation you’ll receive.

How Can You Prove Your Council House Damp Compensation Claim?

The more evidence you have in support of your council house damp compensation claim, the better. Examples of the types of evidence that can assist include the following:

Photographs of the damp.
Correspondence between you and the housing provider about the issue.
Medical notes relating to any health issues that you or your family developed because of the damp.
Photographs showing any personal belongings damaged by the damp.
Documentation to show any financial losses, such as increased heating bills.
