Accident at Work
Trinity Law Partnership
If you have had an accident at work we may be able to help you claim compensation at no cost to you.
What to you need to prove?
You may think that if you have an accident at work then you have an automatic entitlement to compensation. In fact to succeed with a claim for an accident at work you must first be able to prove that the accident was the fault of your employer.
But how will I know if it was my employers fault?
That may already be obvious to you for example if you are using a piece of work equipment which is faulty or if you trip over a raised carpet tile which hadn’t been secured properly. However there are a lot of situations where the injured person simply doesn’t know or realise that his/her accident at work was due to the fault of their employer.
