Legal Support After a Workplace Injury
Aequitas Legal acts for employees and workers across a wide range of industries. Our personal injury solicitors understand that workplace accidents are not always straightforward and may involve concerns about employers, insurers or future employment.
An injury at work can affect more than your ability to do your job. It can disrupt household finances, delay career progression and require ongoing treatment. Our approach is focused on understanding how the injury has affected you personally and ensuring any claim reflects the full consequences.
Clients in Harpurhey and Moston value our clear communication, careful case preparation and supportive approach throughout the claim.
Accident at Work Claims
Employers are required to take reasonable steps to reduce risks in the workplace. When those steps are not taken and an injury occurs, compensation may be available.
When an accident at work claim may be appropriate
A claim may be possible if an injury was caused by unsafe working conditions, poor training, defective equipment or failures to follow safety guidance.
Who may be entitled to claim
Employees, temporary staff, agency workers, contractors and apprentices may all be able to bring a claim, regardless of how long they have been in the role.
Compensation is intended to recognise pain and suffering as well as financial losses such as reduced earnings, medical costs and future income where work is affected long term.
Falls From Height at Work
Falls from height remain a leading cause of serious workplace injuries, particularly in manual and trade-based roles.
When a fall from height claim may arise
Claims may arise where ladders, scaffolding or platforms were unsafe, or where appropriate safety measures were not in place.
Who can claim following a fall
Workers injured while working at height may be entitled to claim, including those working on temporary structures or access equipment.
Injuries from falls can include fractures, head injuries and spinal damage, often requiring extended recovery or rehabilitation.
Warehouse Accident Claims
Warehouse environments present risks linked to storage systems, vehicle movements and manual handling.
When a warehouse accident claim may be possible
Claims may follow incidents involving unsafe lifting practices, falling stock, forklift accidents or poorly maintained walkways.
Who may bring a warehouse injury claim
Warehouse employees and contractors injured during their duties may be entitled to compensation.
Evidence such as accident reports, training records and CCTV footage can play an important role in establishing liability.
Factory Accident Claims
Factories often involve repetitive processes and heavy machinery, where safety systems must be properly managed.
When a factory accident claim may be appropriate
A claim may be possible where injuries result from inadequate training, poor machine maintenance or unsafe systems of work.
Who can claim for a factory injury
Factory workers, including agency and shift staff, may be entitled to claim if injured while carrying out authorised duties.
Compensation may take into account both physical injuries and any psychological effects linked to the accident.
Dangerous Machinery Injury Claims
Machinery-related accidents can result in severe injuries when safeguards are missing or ignored.
When a machinery injury claim may be possible
Claims may arise where machinery lacked proper guards, was defective or where workers were not properly trained.
Who may be entitled to claim
Employees and contractors injured while operating or working near machinery may be able to pursue compensation.
Such claims often involve detailed technical and medical evidence to assess long-term impact.
Construction Injury Claims
Construction work involves multiple contractors, changing environments and higher risk activities.
When a construction injury claim may arise
Claims may be possible following injuries caused by unsafe sites, falling objects, poor supervision or lack of protective equipment.
Who can claim for a construction-related injury
Construction workers, subcontractors and site visitors may be entitled to claim if injured due to negligence.
We assist with claims involving both short-term injuries and those with lasting effects on employability.
