This is why our team here at The Injury Lawyers write our blogs – to inform and educate our readers. At The Injury Lawyers we deal with all sorts of claims; some of which I have listed below:
- Road Traffic Accidents – these are probably one of the most common accident claims we receive. The system for dealing with these types of accidents was changed last year; it’s a much more simplified and more stream-lined process, making claims run at a faster pace. If you weren’t at fault in a road accident, it’s likely you have a claim.
- Clinical Negligence – if you feel you have received inadequate care from a healthcare professional, whether it’s in a hospital, clinic or GP’s surgery, then you may have a claim for any suffering and loss caused.
- Accidents at work – if you have had an accident at work and it was not your fault, then you may have a claim with your employers insurance. Accidents at work may involve a fall from a height or an injury resulting from heavy lifting; it may however be an industrial disease such as Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome developed through the use of power tools or similar vibrating equipment at work. It can be a mentally difficult task to claim from your employers’ insurer, but that is why we are here to act on your behalf. Employers have a legal duty to be covered by insurers which deal with these situations.
- Accidents in a supermarket – there are many hazards in a supermarket: these may include items falling on you from a poorly stacked shelf, slipping on a spillage that has negligently been left un-cleared, or tripping on an item negligently left in an aisle. If the accident was not your fault then you may have a claim against the supermarket.
The above list is by no means exhaustive; at The Injury Lawyers we have many more sorts of personal injury cases that we deal with. In summary, if the accident was not your fault, then you may have a claim.
