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

Where we offer No Win No Fee services typically customers pay 25% of the amount recovered to our solicitors, although this may be higher or lower subject to your individual circumstances. Please note this excludes claims for Road Traffic Accidents where customers typically pay 35% + VAT due to changes introduced through the Civil Liability Act 2018.

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.
