No win no fee advice on claims for industrial diseases

If you have suffered from what you believe to be an industrial disease, injury or disorder you could be entitled to make a compensation claim.

Industrial disease cases can be complex because unlike work accident claims, it must be shown that on the balance of probability, the symptoms of the complaint of were caused or aggravated by the working conditions. We have a team of specialist solicitors who deal in this area of law.

Many people incorrectly believe these claims only apply to workers in heavy industry such as steel works, mills and mining. In reality there are many jobs that could cause occupational diseases or disabilites. Jobs which require workers to work in noisy environments, use hand held tools or involve a degree of exposure to hazardous substances such as chemicals or even asbestos. You could have worked in such environments and come into contact with these substances many years ago but only now noticed the symptoms.

Please contact us today to make an enquiry regarding your possible industrial illness compensation claim. You could be entitled to a significant compensation award and also entitled to loss of earnings or treatment costs.

This is what one of our clients recently said about our Personal Injury solicitor service: "I would like to take this opportunity to thank you both 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
