Claiming against your employers

Employees are sometimes reluctant to sue their employers. They think it could cause a lot of hassle and embarrassment and might even cost them their job. However the law requires employers to have insurance in place to pay out compensation in the event of a claim. It is not the employers who pay out accident compensation but the insurers. Winston Solicitors LLP will ensure that your claim progresses as smoothly as possible.

If your injury occurred whilst you were at work, please contact us today to see if you have the right to claim compensation.

This is what one of our clients recently said about our Personal Injury service: "I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the professional, courteous and efficient way in which you dealt with my claim. Even though there was a significant delay as a result of the complication to my back you respected my views and pursued the case to its fullest extent resulting in a more than satisfactory settlement. I would have no hesitation in recommending you to others who are unfortunate enough to find themselves in a similar position" >>read more
