Unlike other personal injuries, it may be years before you develop symptoms of a work-related illness or industrial disease; you may even be retired. Unfortunately, by this time, the injury could be life-changing or even result in loss of life. If you have been diagnosed with a work-related illness, we have the right experience and expertise to help you with a claim. Even if the company or companies to blame are no longer in business, you may still be able to make a compensation claim. With our personal and compassionate approach, we’ll help you to secure the compensation you deserve to give you and your family the best possible future.

The standard three-year rule for personal injury claims does not apply for work-related illnesses or industrial disease claims.
In these cases, the general rule is that the limitation clock does not start ticking until the injured person becomes aware that they have an injury and that the injury is related to work. Once the limitation clock starts, then you generally have three years from that date to make a claim.
A typical example would be someone who worked in a noisy factory for many years in the 80s and 90s but who only became aware they had started losing their hearing in the last few years.
As specialist personal injury lawyers, we will be able to advise you on your rights.
Once diagnosed with a work-related illness or industrial disease, the next step is to get in touch with us as soon as possible to see if you have a claim.
We offer a Free No Obligation Case Review so that we can understand more about the accident circumstances and to advise you on whether or not you have a claim.
Such cases are often complex and require a solicitor with experience and expertise in these types of claims as in most cases, there is not one single event which caused the injury, it may have developed during employment with 1 or more employers dating back many years, and some, if not all, of those companies, may no longer exist.
We will guide and support you throughout the personal injury claims process, dealing directly with your employers and their insurance company, tracking down companies if necessary, on your behalf to secure the compensation you deserve for your injuries.
In handling your claim, we will also look at other financial aspects such as medical expenses and loss of earnings you may have had as a result of the illness. We will also factor into the value of your claim any long term medical expenses that you may incur for life-changing injuries that require ongoing medical treatment. The value of every compensation claim for a work-related illness depends on the seriousness of the injury as well as the chances of you making a full recovery.
We will also seek to obtain interim payments where possible to help you to avoid financial hardship caused by industrial disease, as well as making claims on behalf of families who have lost loved ones to a work-related illness or industrial disease.
Whatever the nature of your injury, our aim is to get you the highest amount of compensation as quickly and stress-free as possible.
