Accident At Work Compensation Claims FAQ
Here are some common questions and answers about accidents at work. If your question is not answered here, please use the form at the bottom of the page and one of our team will get back to you as soon as possible.
What can I claim for?You can claim compensation for the injuries that you have suffered and the effect of the injuries on your daily life. You can also claim for any out of pocket losses or expenses that have been incurred as a result of the accident. The most common losses claimed are loss of earnings, travel costs, medical costs and damage to property or clothing.
What do I have to pay?With Claims For You - NOTHING! As solicitors we offer a "No Win, No Fee" and "Win, No Fee" service. This means that if you do recover compensation you will receive it in full, 100% without deduction. Our charges are paid by the Defendant who you claim from. They are obliged to do this by law and therefore we do not need to make any deduction on your compensation. If, for whatever reason, you do not recover compensation, we will not charge you anything.
If my accident happened at work and I make a claim against them, can they dismiss me?It is not legally justifiable for your employer to dismiss you for making an accident claim. It could amount to unfair dismissal.
It's also important to remember that your employer is required by law to take out insurance cover against staff accidents. This means that your employer's insurance company will pay your compensation, not your employer.
How long will it take?Generally, the speed at which your claim may be settled depends on how promptly the Insurance company replies and negotiates with us. We find that most claims can be processed within a matter of months. At Claims For You, we pride ourselves on our speedy service as many of our former clients can attest to (please visit our Testimonials page).
What does "no win, no fee" actually mean?It is simple: if you do not succeed in your claim, you pay nothing. For more information please read our "no win, no fee" FAQ.
