Compensation Consultant

A compensation consultant can help you when you have been injured at the workplace and your employer’s insurance company refuse to pay your claim for any loss of wages, pain and suffering, and even future income if you lose your job because you are no longer able to work.

All employers in the UK are required to have workman’s compensation insurance and they are not allowed to terminate your position if you file a claim.

If you have been denied compensation for your injury, you may have to hire a solicitor to act as your compensation consultant. How To Claim Compensation can help you find a compensation consultant. Simply send the details of your claim to us via the question box provided and a claims expert will reply within an hour for free with all the information you need.

 

How can I help my compensation consultant?

 

If possible, you may be required to give a statement on how the injury occurred, what witnesses saw your injury take place or whether there were any supervisors present.

The more information you provide to your compensation solicitors the better as this will help ensure you receive the level of compensation you deserve.

Your doctor may be required to give information to your solicitor following an examination. If they diagnose you with a work related injury, this will help your solicitor to win your case through their witness testimony and any associated medical reports.

How do compensation consultants work?

After suffering your work related injury, you most likely followed the correct procedure by notifying your employer, then making a trip to the hospital or to your doctor.

If this is the case, the employer’s insurance representative should have been notified and the process of getting your claim through should have commenced.

Where this is not the case and claims are denied, a compensation consultant to pursue the compensation claim on your behalf.

Many compensation solicitors work on a no win, no fee basis where if they do not win any compensation for you then you don’t have to pay them. They look at your case and help you prove the employer’s liability or if you have no witnesses, often they can argue a split liability where your employer can at the very least be responsible for 50% of your accident or work related injury.

How do I choose a compensation consultant?

Make sure they are willing to work on a no win, no fee basis and, if you are using a claim management company, ensure they have a license from the Ministry of Justice that entitles them to handle your case. Ask them for the CRM number and check with the Ministry of Justice that the license is valid.
