Claiming Compensation For Injury Following Accidents At Work

My colleagues and I are often instructed to deal with claims on behalf clients who have been injured at work. A split-second act or omission would usually lead to life changing injuries, affecting them and their family lives forever. With support and early rehabilitation, some clients do regain a reasonable quality of life, but not the same 'old life' that was pre-accident.

It is really inspiring to see that despite the enormous challenges faced, how some of our clients courageously re-build their lives. I recently settled a claim for once such client who was injured in an accident at work. He was operating a forklift truck and unloading a delivery from a lorry when he was knocked unconscious by the load which fell off a loose pallet. As a consequence, my client suffered severe bilateral leg injuries for which he required three surgical procedures within two operations including insertion of a nail to their tibia and fibula in the first instance.
