Services for Members - Personal Injury Claims

Unite recommends that you pursue any personal injury claim you may have through the Union's solicitors. This is the only way you will be guaranteed to keep 100% of your compensation

 

An injury or illness can have a devastating impact, many years after they occur.  Difficulties working, expensive treatments, travel costs, not to mention the emotional price you pay and your family are forced to endure. 

 

Unite members won't be left counting the costs when it isn’t their fault.  Unite have been winning compensation for victims of accidents, injury and disease since 1852.

 

Our lawyers will ensure that you obtain full compensation to reflect all of the losses you may have suffered because of an accident including:

 

  • Pain and suffering
  • Loss of earnings
  • Property and clothes damage
  • Loss of overtime, bonus pay or shift allowance
  • Travel costs
  • Physiotherapy and similar treatment
  • Care provided by your family
  • Prescription cost

 

Our lawyers will also do everything that they can to assist getting you back on your feet and moving forward with your life from arranging physiotherapy and similar rehabilitative care to car hire or other means of travel in appropriate cases.

 

Our lawyers are leading experts in all areas of compensation claims including:

 

  • Accidents at work
  • Road accidents
  • Asbestos disease
