If you have been injured in an accident at work that wasn’t your fault, you may be able to claim compensation as a result. Much of the workforce of the City of Westminster is office based but you could have been injured in any work environment. It is the responsibility of your employer to ensure your safety at work, no matter your work environment.

This responsibility includes following the health and safety guidelines that are relevant to your industry.

Accidents in Public Places

Accidents can happen anywhere and if the accident was not your fault, you are probably eligible to claim compensation. For example, if you have been injured due to tripping on an uneven curb, you could potentially claim against the council for not properly regulating the pavement surfaces.

The amount of compensation that you could be awarded will be dependent upon the specifics of your case, such as the severity of your injuries and their impact upon you. To find out how much compensation you could be owed, speak to First Personal Injury today.

How much compensation am I owed?

Compensation is decided on a case by case basis, taking into account the pain and suffering caused by your injuries and the impact that these injuries have had upon your ability to function/your amenity. For example, if you can no longer complete tasks that you normally could, you may be able to be compensated for this loss of ability.

Compensation also takes financial loss into account. If you have experienced a loss of income due to your injuries, then it may be possible to account for this loss of income through compensation. Similarly, if you have had to pay for treatment or other costs associated with your injuries, it may be possible to claim these costs back through compensation.

To calculate how much compensation you could be owed, use our compensation calculator. However, it is important to remember that these figures are just estimates based upon previous cases. The best way to determine how much compensation you are likely to receive in your case is to speak directly to a personal injury solicitor.

How do I make a claim?

At first, you must provide some initial details about your accident in the City of Westminster– such as the date it occurred and where it happened.

If you have any documents related to the accident, such as medical transcripts, photographs, witness details or notes, you should keep these safe as they could be used as important pieces of evidence in your case.
