How Personal Injury Solicitors For Dundee Assess Whether You Might Qualify For Compensation?

Our potential clients are often keen to know whether or not they qualify to claim compensation for the injuries or illness that they have suffered. To claim personal injury compensation, your lawyers will have to prove the following:

  1. That the Defendant owed you, the Claimant, a duty of care. Legally, certain parties have a what is called a duty of care towards others. For example, employers are legally bound to provide employees with a safe and hygienic working environment. Medical practitioners such as doctors or nurses also have a legal duty of care towards their patients, meaning that they are bound to provide them with appropriate standards of medical care.
  2. That the Defendant performed a negligent action or inaction which breached their duty of care towards you. In the case of an accident at work, this could mean that your employer ignored a health and safety hazard, which resulted in you having an accident. In the case of clinical negligence, this could would mean that the medical practitioner delivered substandard medical care.
  3. Finally your injury lawyer, will have to prove that the accident, or substandard care was the cause of your illness or injury. In the case of medical negligence (also known as clinical negligence), it may be that the alleged negligence worsened an existing medical condition. Your medical negligence solicitor will have to provide evidence that this was the case.

If you have been injured or made ill anywhere in the country, in an accident that was not your fault, no matter where you live, Legal Expert could provide you with a personal injury solicitor to handle your claim. Many of our clients wonder if they can only claim compensation for certain types of illnesses or injuries.

Below are some common examples of the sorts of accidents and resulting injuries which your no win no fee solicitors can help clients to make compensation claims for.

Accident At Work Claims For Dundee

As we have already stated, according to the Health and Safety Act of 1974, employers have a duty of care towards their employees, whilst at work. This includes employed staff, agency workers and self employed contractors. To uphold their duty of care, employers must conduct regular risk assessments to identify health and safety hazards and ensure control hazards are applied to remove the risk they pose. If an employee is injured due to an employer ignoring a health and safety accident, the employer could be held legally liable for their injuries and have to pay the injured party accident at work compensation. Common accidents at work include: manual handling injuries, slip, trip and fall injuries and shelving and racking accidents. If you have experienced an accident at work in Dundee, you could use a personal injury solicitor specialising in workplace accident claims to conduct your compensation claim.

Trip and fall injuries caused by hazards on the floor are a common cause of personal injury compensation claims. What can cause slip and fall accidents? A spillage on a restaurant floor that has not been mopped up, broken floorboards, broken or uneven paving slabs and broken railings that collapse underneath someone’s weight can all cause slip, trip and fall accidents. Trip and fall accidents can cause injuries such as sprains, strains, fractured bones and broken bones.

Serious Injury Compensation Claims

Have you suffered a serious suffered injury due to someone else’s negligence? We often define serious injuries as injuries or illnesses that have a life changing effect on the victim. For example, those where the victim is left with brain damage, or a permanent disability. Appropriately, compensation claims for serious injuries are often worth hundreds of thousands or even millions of pounds, because of the life changing effect they can have. If you have suffered a serious injury in an accident that was not your fault, don’t let those responsible get away with it.

No Win No Fee: Personal Injury Solicitors For Dundee

At Legal Expert, we understand that claiming compensation can be a stressful experience. Many people who are claiming compensation have suffered difficult injuries that have had a negative impact on their quality of life. They may have even sustained a permanent degree of disability or a debilitating illness as a result, which will have life changing effects. Injuries can also have a negative financial effect on the victim, potentially causing them to lose income if they are unable to work for a period of time. In more serious circumstances, the person may not be able to work anymore in their choose career or be able to work at all. This is why we help you to make a no win no fee claim. If you are unable to work, your solicitor may be able to secure interim payments for you from the liable party, to cover your ongoing payments.

Even if you have legitimate grounds to claim compensation, you may be worried about having to find the funds to pay a solicitor upfront, or worry about being left out of pocket, in the unlikely circumstances that you do not win your personal injury claim. That’s why we offer all of our clients in Dundee and elsewhere the opportunity to make a no win no fee personal injury claim.  This means, because there are no upfront or ongoing fees to pay, a no win no fee claim is the more affordable option for many claimants. Instead, your fees will be taken out of your final compensation package if and when you win.
