- Being injured because you were not trained properly in the use of specialist equipment.
- There were no health and safety regulations outlined to you and you were injured as a result, e.g. got a back injury from lifting heavy boxes incorrectly.
- You contracted a long-term illness due to a poorly ventilated work environment that handles hazardous materials.
- Being asked to use badly maintained or faulty equipment that resulted in an injury when it malfunctioned.
These are only examples of what can be regarded as an accident that was caused by your employer’s negligence. It is important to note that your employer has a duty of care to you and must ensure that are working in safe conditions. If you feel that an injury or illness you have picked up in work is due to a lapse in your employer’s responsibility to you, then you could be entitled to claim.
Your employer cannot dismiss you for making a claim against them or their insurance, as it would be regarded as unfair dismissal.

No Win No Fee Victim Of Violent Crime Compensation
Being the victim of a violent crime can have devastating consequences for most people. While compensation may not undo what happened, it can help in relieving stress during times of healing and recovery. Cases that involve violent crimes are made through a government-backed scheme called the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA).
Criminal Injuries
Criminal injuries can include assault, being mugged, being robbed or a burglary that resulted in injury. Your injuries can also include emotional or mental trauma from witnessing an event. For these types of criminal injury claims, it is important that you can provide evidence to show where the incident happened, who is to blame for harming you, and a record of the extent of your injuries at the time. You do have to report the incident to the police, but the success of your claim does not rely on a guilty verdict in court.
Sexual Abuse
Cases of sexual assault, rape, etc. are also handled through CICA. Compensation for these claims includes physical injuries as well as psychological trauma. Cases can be recent as well as historical.
Claims handled through CICA could have a shorter claim time limit, but there are exceptions for certain cases, so we recommend getting in touch with our advisors to see what time limit may apply to your unique case.

How Can I Sue My Landlord For My Deposit?
At the beginning of a shorthold tenancy in a rented property, your landlord will usually collect a tenancy deposit. This deposit protects the landlord in the event of a violation of tenancy agreement or damage to their property caused by the tenant. Your landlord has a legal responsibility to enter this deposit into an approved protection scheme and must do so within 30 days of receiving your deposit. Your landlord must also share the information on the scheme they used. If they fail to do this, or you later lose your deposit as a result of their negligence, you could be eligible to claim compensation. Our panel of no win no fee solicitors could help you get the compensation you may be entitled to. Feel free to see this link to the Shelter website for more information.
Claims For Housing Disrepair And Uninhabitable Living Conditions
Understanding your rights as a tenant of rented accommodation is important. Your landlord, letting agency or housing authority has responsibilities toward you, and these responsibilities include ensuring that the property you’re living in remains in a habitable condition. But what do uninhabitable living conditions entail? Possible housing disrepair cases can include:
- Exposed electrical wiring resulting in avoidable electrocution.
- Damaged flooring and uneven surfaces causing injuries.
- Mould on walls or ceilings resulting in undue illnesses.
The above are only examples of things that can make a property uninhabitable, and it is the property owners’ responsibility to ensure these issues are handled as soon as possible. If you live in a property with similar issues, that have caused you to become ill or injured and your landlord has refused to fix them, you could be entitled to compensation. There is a protocol that should be followed before you can make a claim, which is outlined on the Justice website. If you have followed this protocol and feel like you would like to make a claim, our panel of no win no fee housing solicitors could help.
