Forklift Truck Accidents
Claiming Compensation for a Forklift Truck Accident
Carrs Solicitors bring representation by an APIL accredited solicitor specialising in work related accident claims to each case with years of experience in dealing with claims arising from the use of forklift trucks, pole trucks, reach trucks and Automatic Guided Vehicles. We are experts at claiming for accidents caused by breaches of Health and Safety Legislation to include the Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998.
Employers are required by law to take out insurance cover against accidents at work to include those arising from the use of this equipment. We have recovered compensation for clients injured in fork lift truck accidents where:
- Adequate training was not given.
- The negligence of another party caused the injury.
- Safe traffic routes had not been organised or adhered to.
- Unsuitable or defective equipment was provided.
- There was a failure to provide a safe system of work or competent staff.
You may be entitled to bring a personal injury claim against your own employer and or the employer of another party who caused the accident. This may be so even if you are partly to blame provided we can show that the primary cause of the accident was the breach of duty the other party.
