Personal Injury Solicitors - Bonnar and Co.

Types of Accidents

If you were the driver of a vehicle or a passenger involved in a road traffic accident that wasn't your fault, you could be entitled to compensation.

Construction sites are among the most dangerous places of work in the country, consequently the industry is governed by strict regulations covering all aspects of health and safety.

If you have been hurt or injured at work you may be entitled to make a personal injury claim against your employer who has a duty of care to ensure the safety of all employees.

A seemingly minor trip, slip or fall in a public place can result in a very nasty injury and have a major impact on your quality of life.

Industrial diseases caused by exposure to hazardous substances in the workplace ruin lives.

Injuries caused by sports and leisure activities affect people of all ages and skills levels and can have a major impact on the victim's lifestyle

If you have been hurt or injured as the result of an accident on a construction site anywhere in Scotland, including off-shore, within the last three years that wasn’t your fault, then Bonnar & Company Solicitors can help you claim the compensation you deserve on a No Win - No Fee basis.

It is in your interest to contact us as soon as possible to discuss your claim while the details of the accident are fresh in your mind.

Claiming compensation for construction site accidents

Many people who think they are self-employed for tax purposes are actually considered by the courts to be employed, which means that they may be able to sue an employer or other contractor for a breach of their health and safety rights.

Construction site operators have a statutory duty to identify and reduce all unnecessary risk and ensure that safe systems of working are in place.

Some typical construction industry claims:

•    Falls from height
•    Injuries caused by falling materials
•    Accidents caused by site vehicles
•    Tunnelling accidents
•    Accidents caused by demolitions
•    Exposure to hazardous substances
•    Unsafe systems of working
