Suffering a workplace accident can leave you feeling unsettled and you may not be sure what to do next. This is where our skilled local solicitors can step in to help.
If you’ve experienced a workplace injury – whether from lifting heavy items, slipping, or falling from a height – we can connect you with a legal expert in your area. They’ll be there to answer your questions and walk you through each stage of the claims process. We only work with fully regulated solicitors so you can rely on their expertise.
How much compensation will I receive for a workplace accident?
Each workplace accident is unique, so the amount of compensation you receive will depend on the specific details of your situation.
If your claim is successful, your final settlement will take into account:
- The pain and discomfort you’ve endured
- How long your recovery might take
- Lost income if you’ve been off work
- Costs related to medical equipment or home adjustments
- The impact on your ability to earn in the future
Your solicitor will be able to give you a clearer estimate after talking to you about what happened in more detail.
Only pay a fee if you receive compensation
Our No Win No Fee solicitors will take a success fee from the compensation you are awarded for a successful claim in the form of a percentage of your damages. This could be up to 25% but it won't be more than that, except in cases of road traffic accidents. Changing laws mean our solicitors will now take a payment of 35% of the final compensation amount plus VAT for all road traffic accidents.
First4Lawyers are an award-winning claims management company with a track record of delivering service that our clients love.
How long will making an accident at work claim take?
Workplace injury claims don’t all follow the same timeline. Some may be resolved quickly, while more complex cases can go on for longer.
How long it takes to settle your claim will depend on factors such as:
- The type and severity of your injury
- How the injury affects your day-to-day life
- Whether your employer accepts responsibility
It’s always best to seek legal advice sooner rather than later. To find out if our solicitors in Bristol could help you, get in touch with our friendly team.
