Make a claim for your serious injury
Serious injuries can take place anywhere – at home, in public or in the workplace. You can make a no win, no fee serious injury claim against an employer or a public organisation if you’ve been injured and it wasn’t your fault.
At Express Solicitors, our expert personal injury solicitors are here to help you get the compensation you deserve. We’ve helped thousands of people recover compensation following an accident at work – we’ll even take on cases that other law firms wouldn’t. We’re committed to helping you get the compensation you are entitled to.
Serious injury claims we can help with
Thankfully, serious injuries are far less common than short-term injuries. The Health and Safety Executive reported that out of 441,000 injuries at work, less than one-quarter led to more than seven days off work.
But serious injuries can happen anywhere, including at work, on the road or in a public place. If your injury happened because somebody was negligent, such as an employer, you could make a claim. Some examples of serious injuries include:
- Spinal cord injuries
- Brain injuries
- Amputations
- Severe burns

How do I know if I can make a claim for a serious injury?
You can make a serious injury claim if you have been injured in an accident that wasn’t your fault. This generally applies to accidents at work, in a public place, or in healthcare settings such as a hospital.
When we look at your compensation claim, we’re looking for two things: ‘breach of duty’ and ‘causation’. Breach of duty means that somebody, such as an employer or doctor, has failed to keep you safe. ‘Causation’ refers to the breach of duty being the reason for the injury itself.
Product manufacturers have a duty to keep their products safe, just as doctors have a duty to keep patients safe, and employers have a duty to keep employees safe. Essentially, we are looking to prove that you were injured and you were not at fault. Our expert no win, no fee solicitors will look at everything from the injury itself to the financial losses and the long-term impacts on your life.
