Injuries at Work

If you have been injured in an accident at work or while doing work for your employer, you may be entitled to compensation.

We understand the impact a workplace injury can have on you physically, psychologically and financially.

However, it is not enough that you were injured at work, the law requires you, the injured party, to prove that the injury was caused either wholly or in part by someone or something else.  There are also strict time limits within which you are allowed to bring your personal injury claim.  This is why having an experienced team of solicitors who will take immediate steps to preserve vital evidence & progress your claim is so important.

From the outset our team at Douglas Law Solicitors LLP will investigate your case fully and take all of the necessary steps to protect and preserve essential evidence which may be required at a later date to assist in proving your injury claim.
