You may be able to make a claim for compensation due to suffering from a work related illness, sometimes known as an industrial disease.

Your employer has a duty of care to you as an employee, and must protect you from any health risks in the workplace.

 

How We Can Help

— Hearing Loss Tinnitus & Industrial Deafness
— Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
— Vibration White Finger
— Occupational Asthma and other Chest related Disease
— Asbestos Related Disease committed there.

There are many conditions than can be caused by employer negligence, some of which are listed above.

Most of the industrial disease claims we handle are on a No Win No Fee basis, which means there’s nothing to pay upfront, and that you won’t have to pay any legal fees if your claim isn’t successful. If your claim succeeds, your opponent pays most of your legal fees, with anything outstanding (usually only a success fee) coming out of your compensation.

As with other personal injury claims it is important to contact us as soon as possible after your accident. The limitation date (the last date on which you can take legal action against the guilty employer) is usually on the 3rd anniversary of the accident. There are some exceptions to this (for example the date that you became aware of the negligence) and we can explain the exceptions if they are relevant to your case.

RT @JanetDaby Today I called on the Government to do more to help criminal legal aid solicitors. Despite the warm words from @MoJGovUK many smaller firms are struggling financially and Tory cuts are making this situation worse. My constituents deserve access to justice. @the_AYJ pic.twitter.com/ovf7m8F7l7
