How to start a work accident claim
After you have received medical treatment and have been assessed by a doctor or specialist, we recommend that you contact a law firm to discuss where you stand legally regarding a claim for compensation.
If you have sustained a serious injury, it is likely that you will be unable to work while you recover and in some very serious cases, you may be signed off work for several months without pay.
If you would like to start a new accident at work claim with Nigel Askew Solicitors, call and speak to one of our team today.
From our initial phone consultation, we are usually able to tell you whether we think your potential claim has any prospects of success.
I’m worried about claiming against my employer
If you have been injured in an accident at work, through no fault of your own, then we recommend you contact us to discuss making a claim against your employer for negligence.
They owe you a duty of care to ensure you are reasonably safe and not at risk of sustaining an injury, so if they have breached their duty and you have been injured as a result then you have a legal right to compensation.
If you feel that your employer has failed you, then contact us to discuss a potential claim. Call us on 01507 609027 today.
How long do I have to make a claim?
The law states that you have 3 years from the date of an accident, or a medical diagnosis, to start a claim for compensation.
There are some exceptions to this 3 year claim deadline so we recommend you contact us as soon as possible to discuss your particular circumstances so your claim does not fall outside this 3 year claim limitation period.
