Electric shock claim from broken / defective product
100% compensation for product claims
So, you’re using a hairdryer, or perhaps a lawnmower, or some other form of electrical equipment, and it shocks you – causing an injury. What can you do?
If the electric shock is caused because the product is defective, or perhaps the plug or wiring is faulty, you may have a claim for personal injury compensation depending on how it has happened, and where it has happened as well.
Accidents when traffic merges – advice from The Injury Lawyers
No Win, No Fee for Road Accident Claims!
When two lanes become one, accidents can easily occur. There are a lot of lanes on our roads that close in to one lane forcing traffic to merge, and when people are not paying enough attention, or being impatient, they can become road accident hotspots.
So what are the rules of the road when it comes to accidents where traffic merges, and who is at fault?
Ever walked through a door and slipped on a floor?
You walk through a door to a shop, or a supermarket, or a pub, or perhaps to your place of work – and as soon as you walk through the door you slip on the floor. It can be as painful as it is embarrassing – and it may mean that you have a claim for personal injury compensation if this happens to you.
So can you claim? If so, how much does it cost?
100% Compensation for Product and Service Claims
When we buy a product or invest in a service, we expect a certain quality in what we’re paying for. Importantly, we expect not to be harmed by the product or service we have parted ways with our money for – The Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982 demands it.
So what happens if you are harmed because a product is dangerous either due to it being defective or due to a failure to warn of inherent dangers? Or what happens if a service ends up leaving you injured? Can you make a claim? If so, how much does it cost to claim?
Road Accident Injury Lawyers – Changing Lanes
I often get inspiration for my blogs through recent claims we take on and stories I read in the press. On occasions, the inspiration comes from my own personal experience – and given I do a commute of more than 66 miles a day, I’m almost taken out on the motorways and on roundabouts on a regular basis.
It’s quite concerning sometimes – but as I’m a good driver (in my opinion) I can normally avoid the idiocy of others causing an accident. So let’s look at the changing lanes scenario.
Workplace Accidents – Cranes and Plant Equipment Claims
100% compensation for workplace accidents
I saw a recent story in the Derby Telegraph about a worker who narrowly escaped what could have been a fatal injury when a crane toppled over whilst trying to lift a heavy object (source). According to the news story, the accident, which happened in my resident city of Derby this week, confirms that the worker managed to escape the crane unharmed.
But it could have been so much worse – so what happens if someone is injured in an accident involving cranes and plant equipment? Can you make a claim for personal injury compensation?
10% Increase in Injury Compensation
110% Compensation with The Injury Lawyers!
April 2013 saw a lot of government legal reforms which have rocked the personal injury claiming world to its very core, and largely left the victims more worse off than they have ever been in the history of injury claims. We’ve known its coming for a while, and the government have caved to pressures from the multi-billion pound insurance industry to reduce the burden of legal costs to the defending parties.
But compensation in general has been increased by 10% to offset the changes victims are now suffering from – so here is an insight in to the overall picture of what’s happened.
Co-op Successfully Sued when boss told worker to put her hand inside a broken air conditioning unit
100% compensation for workplace claims – click here for more!
We take on a lot of workplace accident claims and we’re often astonished at some of the circumstances employees are injured in. Health and safety is significantly stringent in the UK, and whilst many workplaces can boast of good records when it comes to keeping accidents down, there are times when things happen that could have easily been avoided.
So here’s a story from the Matlock Mercury (source) about a local woman in chesterfield who is suing her employer, the Co-op, after she was told to put herself in danger in the workplace.
Cash upfront claims – why to avoid them
Did you know we still offer 100%?
Many personal injury lawyers and claims companies are thinking of as many ways as possible to entice you to use their services. There are some firms out there who will give you money up front as an incentive to make your claim with them.
But here are some reasons as to why this isn’t always as attractive as it might sound…
100% Compensation for Tripping Claims
The Injury Lawyers still offer 100% for tripping claims!
If you have had a tripping accident, whether it’s a trip in a shop, at work, or out in the high street on a pothole or raised paving slab, we should be able to offer you a 100% compensation agreement.
Tripping claims at the best of times can be very hard to win – so this, combined with some rather ruthless legal reforms the government imposed in April 2013, has led to most lawyers now taking up to 25% from their client’s payout.
But read on to find out how we can still offer 100% compensation agreements!
