Industrial Injury & Occupational Disease

Instructions in Industrial Injury and Occupational Disease work are received on behalf of claimants and defendants from established firms of solicitors. The work handled varies from fast-track claims to multi-million pound catastrophic injury cases. Conditional fee cases form a significant part of this work and our experienced team provides cover and support where necessary. The team continues to expand to service the work that is being attracted to Chambers.

Industrial Injury work covers the full spectrum from off-shore rigs to mines, and includes accidents in factories, offices, construction sites, hospitals, educational premises, places of entertainment, and on farms. Chambers work includes cases involving accidents sustained by actors, health care workers, ambulance personnel, firefighters and police officers. Members of the team write and lecture on Industrial Injury topics.

Occupational Disease cases are handled by a team headed by practitioners with a long and proven record in this field of work. Instructions are received on behalf of claimants and defendants. There is experience in handling cases involving asbestos, asthma, deafness, dermatitis, occupational stress, vibration white finger, and work related upper limb disorders. Members of the team write and lecture on Occupational Disease matters.
