Accidents at Work

Your employer should reduce the likelihood of you suffering an accident or being injured in the workplace by following the health and safety standards that are relevant to your industry. For example, if you have to control a forklift truck at work, your employer should have provided you with adequate training in order to perform your job role safely.

If this has not been completed and you or someone else is injured, it would be possible for you or them to claim compensation.

Accidents on the Road

Road traffic accidents can often be traumatic and the injuries that are sustained can often have a long period of recovery. Therefore, First Personal Injury understands the need to claim compensation if you have been in a road traffic accident that wasn’t your fault. Compensation can help with the costs of recovery treatment and surgery, as well as helping to cover any financial losses you might have suffered such as a loss of income.

We have more information about Road Traffic Accidents available on our website.

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.
