What Is a Work Accident Claim?

A work accident claim is the legal process of seeking compensation if you were injured at work (or while doing your job) due to unsafe systems, poor training, faulty equipment, or another party’s negligence. UK employers have a legal duty to take reasonable steps to keep workers safe — from risk assessments and training to safe equipment and PPE.

If you’ve been hurt in the last three years because safety rules weren’t followed, LITKRAFT can help you start your claim and get the support you need to recover.

Who Can Claim After a Work Accident?

You may be entitled to compensation whether you were:
• A full-time, part-time or agency worker, contractor, temp, or zero-hours worker
• Injured on a client site, warehouse, farm, factory, office or retail premises
• A delivery driver, carer, or mobile/remote worker injured while working

Claims are usually paid by your employer’s compulsory liability insurer, not out of your manager’s pocket.

How Much Compensation Could You Get?

Every work accident claim is different. The amount of compensation you may receive will depend on your own circumstances, including:
• The medical evidence of your injury and how long recovery takes
• Any loss of earnings and the impact on your future income
• The effect on your day-to-day life, independence and wellbeing
• The cost of medical treatment, rehabilitation and ongoing care needs
• Travel expenses and other out-of-pocket costs caused by the accident

Your solicitor will calculate the value of your claim using medical reports, financial records and the official Judicial College Guidelines (JCG). This ensures your work accident compensation reflects the real impact the accident has had on your life — both now and in the future.

Reviews

I am very impressed with the service provided. Thanks to LITKRAFT assistant I was able to prove my innocence. Third party was denying the damages suffered, but we never gave up, resulting in a settlement of compensation that I was really happy with.

If you had an accident – immediately call LITKRAFT. They are true professionals and it really shows, as they can tell you straight away if you have a case. When I had another accident I emailed all details to them and they called me back within 20 min.

Great company, fantastic staff who are just a phone call away to help. They were very patient in explaining every document received from solicitors or doctors. When we first started the claims process, the other party tried to deny liability, but LITKRAFT solicitor fought my case in court and won it. I was delighted with the process and I couldn’t have asked for anything more from LITKRAFT.
