How to Make a Personal Injury Claim if you are injured at work: The No Win No Fee Approach
Posted on 14th December 2023
Workplace injuries can be a life-altering experience, impacting not just your health but also your ability to earn a living as you did before your accident. Navigating through the aftermath of such an injury requires understanding your rights and the best approach to claim compensation. One increasingly popular method is hiring a 'no win, no fee' solicitor, such as those at MG Legal, to handle your personal injury claim.
Understanding 'No Win, No Fee' Agreements
A 'no win, no fee' agreement, also known as a Conditional Fee Agreement (CFA), means that your solicitor will only charge you if your claim is successful. This approach minimises financial risks for you, the claimant, and ensures that legal support is accessible, regardless of your current financial situation. Firms like MG Legal specialise in these agreements, offering expertise without the upfront costs.
Step-by-Step Guide to Making a Claim
Report the Incident
Immediately report the injury to your employer. This should be logged in your workplace's accident book.
Seek Medical Attention
Your health is paramount. Additionally, medical records serve as crucial evidence for your claim.
Gather Evidence
Collect as much evidence as possible - photographs of the accident scene, witness statements, and any other relevant details.
Contact a 'No Win, No Fee' Solicitor
Research and contact a reputable firm like MG Legal. They will assess your claim and advise on the likelihood of success.
Documentation and Representation
Your solicitor will help gather further evidence, negotiate with the responsible party, and, if necessary, represent you in court.
