(I am) extremely happy, couldn't think of a better (firm) to handle my claim. I am very happy and I would like to thank you extensively. Service from all the staff was excellent.
The service I received from start to finish was exceptional, everything was dealt with a timely and professional manner! I was kept informed throughout and I am extremely pleased with the outcome. I will most definitely be recommending this company to all. Well done PSR
Thank you very much. I never believed I would receive such a large sum of money. Your service is friendly and impeccable and I would certainly recommend you, in fact I already have.
I’m incredibly grateful to all at PSR Solicitors. I was sceptical at first of the ‘No Win, No Fee’ basis simply due to never taking legal action before. However, I will have no hesitancy recommending you to other who find themselves in similar circumstances. I’m really pleased with the result.
I would like to thank the team at the Wrexham office for everything they have done for me and for reaching settlement. I will definitely recommend PSR
Electricity is an intrinsic and important part of our daily lives but if care is not taken it can be the cause of serious and sometimes fatal accidents. The risks of being involved in an electrical accident can increase at work, particularly if the correct health and safety procedures are not followed and implemented.
The most common claims we see caused by electrical injury in the workplace include:
If you are directly exposed to a live electrical current it can cause serious harm including heart and respiratory failure. The potential symptoms of an electric shock are wide-ranging and can include everything from a mild, tingling sensation to muscle spasms, seizures, and loss of consciousness.
Burns caused by an electric shock can be extremely painful and life-altering, often requiring surgery and skin grafts. Internal burns caused by an electrical current passing through the bones and deep tissue of the body are particularly serious and distressing.
These are particularly dangerous as they are often made worse by using water to try and extinguish them and can cause a subsequent electric shock. Most electrical accidents at work are the result of poorly maintained equipment, faulty or exposed wiring, contact with overhead power lines, or inadequate training.
We have helped thousands of clients to successfully win their claims following accidents at work, so if you have been injured while carrying out your job and it wasn’t your fault then you need to speak to qualified solicitors as soon as possible.
Electrical accidents could potentially happen to anyone. However, the risk is obviously greater if you are working with electricity, wiring, machinery, or electrical devices directly on a regular basis.
The personal injury solicitors at PSR, regularly represent electricians in injury at work claims, so you can trust us to help you too.
A voltage as low as 50 volts can block the electrical signals between the brain and the muscles, and could potentially stop the heart beating, prevent the person from breathing, or cause spasms.
The exact effect of an electric shock depends on a number of factors including the voltage, the parts of the body which come into contact, the presence of moisture, and the length of time the current flows.
It is your employer’s responsibility to take all reasonable steps to minimise the risk of electric shocks to their employees. A failure to do so may be deemed negligence. If you have suffered an electric shock at work which you believe was someone else’s fault call PSR Solicitors today.
Employers have a duty of care to protect employees and visitors to their premises from accident or injury. This includes carrying out adequate risk assessments, and making sure that all electrical equipment is regularly checked, maintained and safe to use.
If your employer has failed in these duties, and you have been hurt as a result, then you are able to pursue a compensation claim to cover your medical care, loss of earnings and additional expenses resulting from your accident.
Many of our clients are particularly concerned about pursuing action against their employer however and worry how this might impact on their job in the future. It is illegal for your employer to harass you or make life uncomfortable for you at work as a result of your claim and you are fully protected in this regard.
Your employer will have employer’s liability insurance to cover accident claims, so your compensation won’t impact them financially. We cover all areas of employment law as part of our legal service to you and will advise and support you throughout.
If your accident has taken place in the last three years and was caused fully or partially by someone else, then you could be entitled to compensation. Your final settlement will depend on the severity of your injuries, the impact on your work-life and whether you are expected to make a full recovery.
Your compensation award is a justified financial redress for what has happened and is designed to protect you from any financial hardship resulting from your injury and to pay for the best medical care.
More specifically it will cover:
We are acutely aware of just how essential your compensation will be to your financial security and recovery and will work tirelessly on your behalf to achieve the best possible results and get your life back on track.
The most common claims we see caused by electrical injury in the workplace include electric shocks, electrical burns, and injuries from electrical fires.

Richard Layfield
Solicitor - Head of Personal Injury
I've been a Solicitor at PSR Solicitors since March 2013 and now take full responsibility for leading the Rhyl Office.
I completed both my Law LLB and LPC degrees at Cardiff University, graduating in 2008 and 2009 respectively. Thereafter, I completed my 2-year training contract at a firm based in Cardiff, then retained by this firm as a Criminal Defence Solicitor until I decided to relocate up to North Wales, for the countryside and the people..
As an experienced personal injury and civil litigation Solicitor, I represent Claimants in all manner of personal injury case work including injuries as a result of Road Traffic Accidents, Accidents at Work, and Occupiers Liability Accidents. I handle all types off personal injury claims from the minor right through to complex, serious injury claims.
Outside of work I'm a keen rugby fan, who enjoys running and travel.

Paul Rossiter
Managing Director
All Offices
I am the Managing Director of PSR Solicitors. After working in various law firms, both small high street firms and a larger practice in Manchester, I saw a gap in the market for a high quality practice that had the same core high street values of being personable and approachable and combining them with the efficiency and professionalism of a larger practice. PSR Solicitors was therefore established in 2009 in Shotton, Deeside with this aim. Since then PSR Solicitors has provided high quality legal services to local clients throughout North Wales and Cheshire.
I live in Chester with my young family and 2 dogs and enjoy regular holidays along the coast of North Wales.
I have recently been asked to join the board of trustees at Platform For Life, a mental health counselling charity in Chester. Good mental health is the foundation of a more fulfilled, happy and healthy life, yet many families struggle to access the help and support they need to achieve it. Platform for Life offers free local counselling and play therapy for families who would otherwise not be able to afford it.
Mark House
Solicitor - Head of Litigation
Shotton Office, Wrexham Office, Colwyn Bay Office, Wallasey Office
I completed my law degree and legal practice course at Nottingham Law School, before qualifying as a solicitor in 2004. I then worked at a specialist personal injury firm in the East Midlands and a leading regional firm, before joining PSR in 2017.
With PSR I've continued to specialise in acting for Personal Injury claimants and have developed a keen understanding of the procedures and tactics involved in pursuing a claim, as well as the difficulties and concerns faced by people who have suffered as the result of an accident.
Since 2014 I've been proud to help hundreds of people. I've represented the public in all manner of injury claims, including serious orthopaedic injuries, brain damage, and psychological trauma. I was instructed to deal with claims for clients in the aftermath of the Potters Bar rail crash and the Penhallow hotel fire.
In addition, I represent clients in relation to all manner of disputes. I have dealt with professional negligence claims, such as those against solicitors and builders. I have helped clients recover money which is due to them and to dispute invoices which have been sent to them. I have helped business defend claims against them. I have tackled neighbour and boundary disputes.
I live locally to the Colwyn Bay office, and outside of work, I enjoy taking advantage of the coastal and mountain outdoor activities which are available on the doorstep. I'm also heavily involved with an outdoor pursuits charity, which I find an enjoyable and rewarding way of using my free time.
