Call Irwin Mitchell Solicitors now on 0870 024 0560 or complete the claim form to register your claim.

One of our trained staff will call you back as soon as possible for a free initial consultation to discuss your case in more detail and advise you further. If you have a case, we assign our best staff with the expertise to handle your claim.

We will investigate and build evidence to back up your case. We may in some cases obtain the opinion of a lawyer practicing in the country where your accident occurred for further advice.

Once we have all the relevant information, we will send a letter of claim to the Defendant and then correspond with their representatives. We will keep in touch with you throughout, so you’re always informed.

Finally, with your approval, we arrive at the best compensation settlement possible.

Workplace accidents

Experience

We have extensive experience acting for clients who have been injured whilst working abroad.

Basis of claim

A claim may be made against your employer (depending upon your contract of employment) following an accident at your workplace if they had sufficient control over that workplace to be found at fault. If this cannot be shown, you may still have a claim against the owners of the premises where you worked.

Where can you bring your claim

You may have a choice of where to bring your claim. It is very important that you choose the most appropriate one for you as it could make a significant difference to the amount of compensation you could recover and whether you can recover any legal costs. We can advise you on this.

Time limit

NOTE!! Time limits in which your claim can be brought can vary throughout the world. It is therefore important that you contact us as soon as possible for advice. Remember, we offer a FREE initial consultation.
