Accident Types - Can I Claim
Compensation?
There are numerous types
of accidents that happen to people – and many victims are left
confused over whether they can justifiably make a compensation
claim.
Here is advice as to the types of accidents that personal
injury lawyers deal with, as well as some helpful hints for
next steps.
Accidents at work are very common and can occur in any job.
Every employer has a duty to look after the safety of employees
in their workplace, whether this is an office, a factory, a
warehouse, outside, or anywhere an employee is required to
work. Even on the road, an employee provided with a vehicle to
use for work purposes can expect that vehicle to be safe and
roadworthy.
The duties of an employer include complying with Health and
Safety laws, and complying with the many regulations which have
been put in place to make the workplace a safer environment and
reduce the risk of work accident compensation claims. Proving
the employer was at fault will require a good knowledge of the
laws and regulations about work accident claims. Good legal
advice is essential for anyone injured in an accident at
work.

Car accidents can be very traumatic, even if you are not
seriously injured. If you make a car accident claim, the
insurers of the person responsible for the accident have to
decide whether to accept the claim, and what compensation to
offer you.
The most common claim types following a car accident are
whiplash claims but claims can be made for a variety of
injuries. Our specialist independent solicitors will make sure
that you receive the compensation you are entitled to. You will
feel far more comfortable knowing that the right decisions are
being made about your car accident compensation claim, and its
value.
Remember that all car drivers should be insured against car
accident claims. Insurers charge insurance premiums so that
they can pay out compensation claims, as well as make profits
for their shareholders. You should not feel embarrassed about
making a claim if you have suffered an injury from a car
accident that was not your fault.
Car accident compensation will not make you better, but it may
help to cover your losses and ease your suffering. Anyone
injured in a car accident - be they drivers, passengers,
cyclists or pedestrians - should get independent advice about
whether it is sensible and right to make a car accident
compensation claim, and how to do it properly.
With so many of us working and travelling abroad, accidents are
bound to happen.
Making a holiday accident claim has always been tricky.
Compensation claims for accidents which happened abroad are
usually subject to the law of the country where the accident
happened, which affects your right to compensation and the
value of the holiday accident claim. Lawyers' fees may not
always be recoverable even if your compensation claim is
successful.
Have you had a slip or trip and injured yourself and do not
know whether you are able to make a claim for compensation?
If you have slipped in a shop whilst out shopping and injured
yourself on a slippery floor that was unmarked, or tripped on
an uneven or broken pavement you may be able to make a
compensation claim for any injuries suffered. It is important
to have the right advice when making a claim following a slip
or a trip that you believe to be the fault of another party and
specialist and expert advice will help guide you through the
compensation claims process. Claims processes can be confusing
at times and it is the duty of the specialist solicitors to
explain the process, from how long the claim process might
take, what costs might be incurred and who will pay these
costs.
