Hartlepool Medical Negligence No Win No Fee Claims
Medical negligence is an avoidable illness, an unnecessary injury or the worsening of a condition that could have been avoided if it hadn’t been for the negligence or mistakes of a doctor or a nurse or other medical or health care staff.

- Neglect of patients in residential nursing homes causing unnecessary suffering.
- Errors or accidents in surgery resulting in; infections, instruments retained in the patient’s body.
Workplace Accident And Industrial Disease Compensation Claims
Any person or business who employs people has an obligation to ensure that they are safe as possible from accidents, industrial diseases, and other health hazards within their working environment. If your employer has fallen short of what is required under the law and you have suffered an accident then you could be entitled to make a compensation claim and your employer could be liable. Our panel of solicitors can help you do this. Examples of health and safety negligence and the effects it could have include:
- Not providing proper training to their staff i.e. the correct lifting techniques.
- Not providing safety equipment such as eye protection, Hi-Vis clothing, and gloves.
- Not providing ventilation and breathing masks to protect staff from harmful particulates and fumes which can cause long term health problems.
- Allowing a high-stress environment or workplace bullying which can lead to anxiety and depression.
- Not providing security features in the workplace such as a security guard that can lead to staff being victims of violent crimes.
Flight Delayed Or Injured On Holiday? – Claim Compensation
If you have had a flight booked which has been delayed then you could claim compensation for the stress, inconvenience, and loss of enjoyment on a holiday. If the flight delay was on a flight that was booked as a part of a package holiday then the travel company could be liable. Travel companies could also be held liable for any injuries and accidents that you suffer while on a package holiday barring those which are not connected to an aspect of your holiday which was handled as part of the package, i.e. if you went to the beach and suffered an injury there.
If you weren’t on a package holiday then an accident abroad would have to be made through the law of the country where the accident happened. Our panel of no win no fee solicitors covering Hartlepool are knowledgeable in international law and can assist you in making a claim for injuries that happened abroad.
No Win No Fee Compensation For Violent Crime Injuries
Is there proof that you have been the victim of a violent crime that has caused you an injury? Even if there has not been a guilty conviction you could be entitled to claim for criminal injury compensation. The Government awards criminal injury compensation to victims of crime via the Criminal Injury Compensation Authority CICA.
In addition to violent crimes such as mugging or assault, you can also claim compensation for being the victim of rape and sexual abuse. Most crimes have a two-year time limit on when the victim can claim compensation, however in some cases of sexual abuse compensation claims this time limit need not apply as many victims do not feel able to come forward with their testimonies until a number of years have passed.
What Other Accident Claims Could Be Made?
A wide variety of everyday accidents could, in fact, give you the right to make a no win no fee personal injury claim. Even something like tripping or slipping and falling over could be grounds for making a personal injury claim with our panel of no win no fee solicitors. Here are a few examples;
- Claiming against the local council for tripping on a pavement that was broken and uneven due to disrepair.
- Claiming against the local council for slipping on a pavement that was slippery due to ice that had not been cleared with salt grit.

No Win No Fee Claims For The Mis Selling Of Financial Services
As well as claiming compensation for physical injuries you also have the option of working with our panel of no win no fee solicitors to claim compensation for financial losses that you have incurred due to a third party’s negligence. One example of how this could happen is financial mis-selling. Financial mis-selling is any instance in which a financial advisor or a bank sells a financial product, i.e. PPI, stocks or pensions in a way that is dishonest and does not allow their customers to make an informed decision and it has resulted in you suffering financially. If you;
- Have bought a product because you felt pressured into buying it.

No Win No Fee Tenancy Deposit Scheme Compensation Claims
You are entitled to receive your tenancy deposit from your landlord in full at the end of your tenancy agreement if you have met all the requirements. Your landlord cannot withhold your tenancy deposit without no legitimate reason. If your landlord is withholding your tenancy deposit or is informing you that they no longer have access to it then you may have grounds to begin a tenancy deposit scheme claim. If it has been more than thirty days since you paid your deposit to your landlord and they have not given you notice that they have placed the money in a tenancy deposit scheme then you would also have grounds to begin a tenancy deposit scheme claim. Be sure to read through Shelter’s page on tenancy deposit disputes for more information.
