To err is human but to forgive is divine and mistakes happen to us all and today we exist in a society where mistakes have a price. If you are involved in an accident and the blame was not yours you could be able to make a challenge for compensation against the outcome of that accident.
First it's important to understand what a personal injury is.
A personal injury can be physical or psychological injury including an injury sustained at work which can also include sickness which is created by the conditions you were required to work in. A common example of this was people required to work in places contaminated with asbestos.
Where people are affected by stress at work, due to the strain of their job , that is also a work related illness. Many people don't know that individuals may also make claims for discrimination or harassment at their employment .
One of the most common injury claims are those caused by car accidents, faulty goods or a trip in a public place .
If you fall into one or more of the above categories there are a number of things to consider. You can complain to the organisation you believe was responsible for the injuries .
You can make a ask for compensation to cover losses you have suffered as a result of the personal injuries. You can ask for support or counselling from a professional. You must report all injuries however minor to your doctor straight away as they will be called on to provide medical reports if the case goes to law . If there are any witnesses to the incident you must ask for statements from them as soon as possible. Ensure you get full addresses of any witnesses.
If the claim concerns a car accident the police must be told as soon as possible. In the case of pain sustained at your employment you must officially inform your employer and ensure the accident is recorded in the accident book. Your manager should then report this to the Health and Safety Executive.
Finally you need to talk with a qualified personal injury claims solicitor in Chester, Cheshire or North Wales , and see how they can help you . They will advise you on all aspects of the case and will drive the paper work forward towards a conclusion.
They will talk with you on the amount of money you may be entitled to. If you have been injured in an accident, then you are likely to want to see if you are entitled compensation, and what you need to do in order to have your claim assessed .
