Lifting and handling injuries at work cover injuries caused by manual handling, lifting or moving heavy loads in the workplace. A solicitor in this area investigates who is liable for the accident, reviews employer safety records, and assesses compensation for pain, rehabilitation and loss of earnings. They draft and negotiate settlements, prepare or respond to court claims, gather medical reports, and liaise with insurers, medical experts and the Employment Tribunal or courts as needed.
The act or decision that protects your position is the initiation of a claim for damages or compensation after a workplace injury, with deadlines in the Civil Procedure Rules and the potential involvement of the Health and Safety Executive. A solicitor ensures evidence is properly prepared, timelines are met, and appropriate remedies are sought through the courts or settlement negotiations.
