Work Accident Compensation If you've decided to claim compensation for your work injury, you may be unsure where to start. This section of work-injuries.co.uk gives you more information about choosing a solicitor and what to expect. The first step is to choose a personal injury solicitor to handle your claim. This is an important decision - you may have seen adverts on TV advertising personal injury claims services, or have been told about a law firm by a friend, but which one is best for you? Factors to keep in mind include the following; • Most solicitors should be able to handle your claim on a No Win No Fee basis. This essentially means that if for some reason your claim is unsuccessful, you will have nothing to pay. • Most solicitors should be able to offer you 100% compensation. This means that if your claim is successful, you keep all of the compensation awarded. Your solicitor's fees will be paid by the other side. • Make sure the advice you're being given is legally sound. Anyone giving advice should be a legally-trained professional. It's impossible to say how much compensation is usually awarded in a work injury claim, as this will vary hugely from one claim to another, depending on factors including whether the employer was wholly or partly responsible for the accident, and the severity of injuries sustained. Similarly, it's impossible to say how long it will take for a claim to be settled - this will depend on similar factors. Your solicitor will be able to give you an estimate on both how much compensation may be awarded, and how long your claim may take once you have discussed your accident with them. National Accident Helpline has been helping people claim compensation after being injured at work for over 18 years. All their advisors are legally-trained, claims are handled on a no win no fee basis, and if your claim is successful, you keep 100% of compensation awarded. If you're ready to start your claim, simply give them a call or make a claim online.
