Home Employer Liability Claims

We have an envious track record of successfully obtaining compensation for employer liability claims on behalf of our clients. Employers have a legal obligation to protect employees from any risks that they may face at work. Employers also have a legal obligation to obtain employer liability insurance to cover any claims they may face by employees for accidents at work.
Common examples of accidents at work are:

  1. Injuries sustained from heavy lifting;
  2. Objects that have fallen and caused injuries such as serious head or brain trauma;
  3. Falling from ladders or scaffolding;
  4. Slips and trips;
  5. Defective machinery or equipment which has caused injury; and
  6. Using equipment which is unsuitable for the work that has been undertaken.
