Personal Injury Claims

Accident Claims

Accidents at Work

Employers have a legal responsibility to keep their workplaces safe. When that duty is breached and an employee is injured as a result, the injured person has the right to seek compensation. Workplace accidents can occur due to inadequate training, unsafe or defective equipment, the failure to provide appropriate protective equipment, poor supervision and unaddressed workplace hazards.

Workplace Settings I Can Help With

• Construction and building sites
• Warehousing and logistics
• Factories and manufacturing
• Retail, hospitality and care work
• Driving and transport roles

How the Claim Process Works

1. 1
   Initial Consultation

   I’ll listen to your account of the accident, assess your prospects and explain how the process works — completely free of charge.

2. 2
   Gathering Evidence

   I’ll help you collate accident reports, witness statements, medical records, photographs and any other evidence relevant to your claim.

3. 3
   Claim Submitted

   Your claim is formally submitted to your employer’s insurer, setting out the circumstances of the accident and the injuries sustained.

4. 4
   Liability Response

   The insurer must respond to the claim, either admitting or denying liability. I will advise you on their response and the appropriate next steps.

5. 5
   Medical Evidence & Rehabilitation

   Independent medical evidence is obtained to document your injuries and their impact. I can help arrange treatment and rehabilitation where needed.

6. 6
   Negotiation & Settlement

   I will negotiate with the insurer to achieve the maximum possible settlement for your injuries and any financial losses you have suffered.

Accident Claims

Motorbike Accident Claims

Motorcyclists are among the most vulnerable road users. Despite exercising all due care, riders are frequently injured through no fault of their own — and the consequences can be life-changing. As a motorcyclist myself, I have a genuine personal understanding of the risks riders face and the profound impact a serious accident can have.

Common Causes of Motorbike Accidents

• Drivers failing to see or check for motorcycles at junctions
• Unsafe or dangerous overtaking
• Rear-end collisions at traffic lights or in slow-moving traffic
• Junction accidents where a vehicle pulls out into a rider’s path
• Road surface defects including potholes, loose gravel and diesel spills
• Serious and life-changing injuries resulting from any of the above

Whether your injuries are relatively minor or permanently life-altering, I will fight to secure the maximum possible compensation — including for medical treatment, rehabilitation, loss of earnings and any long-term care needs.

Accident Claims

Cycling Accidents

Cyclists are particularly vulnerable on our roads. Despite growing awareness of cyclist safety, collisions caused by the actions of other road users remain common and can result in very serious injuries. If you have been injured while cycling through no fault of your own, I can help you claim the compensation you are entitled to.

Common Causes of Cycling Accident Claims

• Drivers failing to provide sufficient space when passing
• Junction collisions where a vehicle turns or pulls out
• Car doors being opened into the path of a cyclist
• Dangerous or close overtaking
• Defective road surfaces including potholes and loose material
• Serious injuries resulting from any of the above

I will investigate your accident carefully and work to secure compensation for your injuries, lost income, damage to your bicycle and equipment and any longer-term effects on your health and daily life.

Accident Claims

Medical Negligence

Medical negligence claims arise when a healthcare professional provides treatment that falls below an acceptable standard, causing injury or worsening an existing condition. These cases can be complex, but where negligence has occurred you deserve both the compensation you are owed and the answers you need.

Types of Medical Negligence

• Delayed or missed diagnosis of a medical condition
• Surgical errors during planned or emergency procedures
• Medication errors, including incorrect dosage or prescribing
• Inadequate treatment or failure to follow accepted clinical guidelines
• Failure to refer a patient for further investigation or specialist care
• Injuries resulting from avoidable delays in diagnosis or treatment

Medical negligence claims require specialist evidence from independent medical experts. I will work with the appropriate experts and guide you through every step of the process, including contact with NHS Resolution or private insurers where necessary.

All medical negligence claims at Inson Legal are handled on a No Win No Fee basis.

Accident Claims

Horse-Riding Claims

Horse-riding and equestrian activities carry an inherent level of risk, but when an accident occurs due to the negligence of another person or organisation, you may have grounds for a compensation claim. Riding schools, instructors and livery yard operators all owe a duty of care to those in their charge.

Claims I Can Help With

• Accidents at riding schools resulting from inadequate instruction or supervision
• Injuries caused by unsafe or defective equipment
• Accidents involving horses that were unsuitable for the rider’s experience or ability
• Road collisions involving horses
• Accidents occurring while working with horses in a commercial context

Each horse-riding claim is unique and requires careful assessment of the individual circumstances. Please contact me to discuss whether you have grounds for a claim and how I can help you move forward.

Injury Claims

Broken Bones

Fractures can affect every aspect of daily life — your ability to work, your independence, your ability to drive and your capacity to carry out simple tasks. Even a fracture expected to heal fully can cause significant disruption and financial loss during recovery.

Broken bones commonly arise in personal injury claims from workplace accidents, road collisions and slips or trips. Treatment may range from simple immobilisation with a cast to surgery, physical therapy and a lengthy rehabilitation programme.

I will investigate your accident, gather the necessary medical evidence and work to recover compensation for your fractures, surgical treatment where needed, pain and suffering, loss of earnings and any longer-term effects on your health and wellbeing.

Injury Claims

Neck Injuries

Neck injuries arising from personal injury accidents can range from soft tissue injuries that resolve with physiotherapy and pain management to serious structural damage requiring specialist care and, in more serious cases, surgical intervention.

Treatment for neck injuries often includes physiotherapy, pain management, specialist orthopaedic or neurological assessment and, where necessary, surgery. Many people experience ongoing symptoms that require continuing support over a prolonged period.

I will obtain the specialist medical evidence necessary to document your injuries fully, reflect the ongoing and future impact of your condition in any compensation claimed and ensure that rehabilitation costs and future treatment needs are properly accounted for.
