Your employer is legally responsible for ensuring your safety while you’re at work. If you’ve been hurt on the job, you may be able to claim compensation.
We work alongside trusted workplace injury solicitors in Cardiff who offer support on a No Win No Fee basis. This means you won’t need to pay anything upfront, and you won’t face any legal fees if your claim is unsuccessful.
Our local legal partners assist with a range of work-related injury cases, including:
Manual handling injuries
In 2023/24, manual handling injuries – usually caused by lifting and carrying – made up 17% of reported non-fatal workplace injuries, according to the Health and Safety Executive.
You could be owed compensation if your injury happened because:
- You weren’t given proper manual handling training
- You were expected to lift or move a heavy load without the right equipment
- Obstructions in your workspace contributed to your accident
If any of these apply to you, get in touch with our team for a free initial chat. We’ll let you know if you have a case.
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.
Falls from a height
Falls from height remain the leading cause of fatal injuries in the workplace, with 50 deaths recorded in 2023/24. They also represented 8% of all non-fatal injuries in the same year.
If your role involves working from a height, your employer should supply the appropriate protective equipment and provide regular safety training.
If these precautions aren’t taken and you’re injured as a result, our Cardiff solicitors could help you bring a claim.
