Frequently Asked Questions
Can I claim if the accident was partly my fault?
Possibly. In many cases, compensation is still payable on a split liability basis if both parties share responsibility. We'll assess this during your free consultation.
Will making a claim affect my job?
It's unlawful for an employer to dismiss or victimise you for making a genuine injury claim. Claims are usually handled by your employer's liability insurance, not out of their pocket.
What evidence helps a workplace claim?
Accident book entries, witness details, photos/CCTV, medical records, training logs, risk assessments, and any reports can all help. We'll guide you on gathering what's available.
How long do I have to claim in Scotland?
In most cases you must start your claim within 3 years of the accident (or date of knowledge). Contact us as soon as possible so we can protect your position.
How much compensation could I receive?
It depends on injury severity and recovery time, plus financial losses such as lost earnings and treatment costs. We'll provide an initial estimate after assessing your case.
