It’s scary how often workers loose fingers or parts of their fingers in the workplace. From crushing injuries to fingers getting trapped in lathes or being cut by saws, it is sadly a common occurrence. We are always taking on cases for victims of finger loss injuries at work, as a firm of specialist work accident lawyers.
So do you need some advice about the best way to access the compensation you deserve? If so, read on.
Do I have a claim?
Unless you deliberately did something against the rules or knowingly caused harm to yourself, it is likely you have a claim. Health and safety legislation that employers must abide by is designed to protect employees from injuries at work, and with finger loss injuries being sometimes substantial, this kind of thing should never happen.
I know I said its common, and it really is; but the law is clear in making sure it doesn’t happen. So if you have suffered a loss of finger at work injury then it’s likely that you have a case we can investigate for you on a no win, no fee basis.
How does a finger loss injury compensation claim work?
Because we only help victims of accidents like you, we have very efficient and streamlined ways of fighting for cases, and we make the whole process as hassle free for you as we can. It’s a lot easier than you might think.
The basic outline of how we work is:
- We can take your instructions over the phone so you don’t have to sift through loads of paperwork before going ahead. We can provide you with clear information about how the funding works over the phone
- Submit a claim notification form for you as soon as we can (which can even be on the day you instruct us)
- Arrange for private medical examinations and treatment where applicable
- Settle the case for the maximum amount and as quickly as possible
How much is a loss of finger at work injury claim worth?
It’s totally dependent on the amount of your losses and expenses, which can be very high where the finger loss injury causes permanent problems and affects your ability to do your job. If you can never do your job again then the amount for future lost earnings can be considerable.
For the injury alone – which is for the general pain, suffering, and inconvenience – payouts can be up to £12,000 for a single finger. I know this sounds low, but that’s because the major part of these types of claims is often the losses and expenses part. Final settlements could be in the tens or hundreds of thousands of pounds.
