Personal injuries can occur in day-to-day life. People often suffer on-going pain, disability and financial distress as a result of injury, either through motor vehicle accidents, workplace accidents or because of another person.
The law of negligence operates to protect people who have suffered injury including back pain, neck pain, whip lash, brain or head injury, burn injury etc.
If you have suffered an injury at work you may be entitled to a workers compensation claim (the ‘statutory claim’). Under this avenue you will be entitled to initial medical treatment or other rehabilitation payments for the time you have off work. However, you may also be entitled to a common law claim for damages, which can cover future economic loss and future medical treatment. Time limits apply to bringing a claim. At Macrossan & Amiet our team of Personal Injury Solicitors are experts when it comes to Workers Compensation Law and can advise you of your rights and work with you to claim the maximum compensation you are entitled to. We’ll deal with the insurance companies so you can work on recovery.
If you suffer an injury in a motor vehicle accident, the first thing you should do is to see a doctor. You may be entitled to make a compensation claim against the driver who was at fault. Our team of experienced Solicitors will handle everything for you during this difficult time and will work towards securing the best compensation claim you are entitled to.
If you suffer an injury because of another person, you may bring also bring a claim. This may be one in public liability, occupiers liability, medical/professional negligence or product liability. Again time limits apply and you have a duty to co-operate with the other party and to ‘mitigate’ your losses.
