The prospect of taking any personal injuries case can be a daunting one – especially when that claim is against your employer. Our experience has shown that many who have been injured in the workplace are concerned that taking any such case can result in dismissal, bullying or curtailment of promotional prospects.

We fully understand these concerns. That’s why we’ll take the time to listen to your story, provide you with practical legal advice and ensure that any concerns you have are addressed. In any event, you can rest assured that there are strict laws protecting those who do take a claim from receiving unfair workplace sanctions and that, in most cases, your claim will be dealt with directly by your employer’s insurance company – meaning you don’t have to worry about it being interpreted as personal slight by your employer.

We promise to use plain language that you understand and update you at every stage of the process. We are committed to securing the best possible award in each claim while ensuring it is completed at the earliest possible opportunity. We can arrange a consultation in person, by telephone, email, or video call to suit your needs.
