FACTORY ACCIDENTS

Factory Accident Solicitors - Legal Advice for Factory Accident Compensation Claims

Law Society Accredited - Practice Management Standard
Law Society Accredited  Personal Injury Solicitors

We are here to help you claim compensation for the injuries you have suffered in a factory accident.

Factories can be very dangerous environments with heavy machinery, volatile substances, and in some cases extreme temperatures. Health and safety processes must be rigorously implemented and closely adhered to in order to minimise those dangers.

Injuries caused in Factory Accidents range from the very minor to the very severe, where life-changing consequences or even fatal injuries can occur.

Whatever degree of harm has taken place, if the injuries could have been avoided by following proper procedures and guidelines, it is likely that you are able to claim compensation against your employer’s liability insurance. The injury itself will be causing you pain and suffering but it can also place limitations on your lifestyle. In addition, you may also be suffering from a loss of income which can add further strain on your situation.

Our specialist Factory Accident Solicitors can help you with everything; from claiming for your physical and emotional injuries, to recovering any loss of earnings and travel expenses and arranging private medical treatment to assist in your recovery and rehabilitation.

Pursuing compensation for your factory accident is not something you have to do on your own, you need specialist advice.

Talk to one of our experienced Factory Injury Lawyers today about the claims process.  You can trust us to help you.

(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.

Mrs E Rhyl 5 Star

I find your service to be highly recommendable. May I say that I am more than pleased with the way you have handled my claim for compensation and I would fully recommend your services to anyone.

Mrs W Mold 5 Star

Thank you PSR Solicitors for the professional way you have dealt with my claim you have made the whole process as stress free as possible.

Reg Callacher 5 Star Google Rating

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.

Mr J Cheshire 5 Star Google Rating

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

Factory Accident Compensation Claims

Some of the most common Factory Accidents involve faulty machinery or improper use of machinery. For example, a guard might be removed to speed up the process but this exposes the employee to dangerous moving parts risking trapped fingers or hands, loss of limbs, or crushing injuries if they become entangled with any part of the machinery.

Other common types of accidents are those involving other employees being under pressure and rushing to complete a job, maybe driving a forklift truck and not paying proper attention as they are hurrying or perhaps leaving goods or debris on the floor creating a tripping hazard.

Employer obligations for factory worker safety

Your employer has a legal obligation to provide you with a clean and safe working environment, proper equipment, and also to ensure that all their staff have been fully trained on all aspects of their job. This includes being fully trained in health and safety at work. If they fail in their duty to look after you whilst you are working for them then they can be held to account by the law.

No one should ever have to go to work and suffer the risk of injury or death.

We understand that you may feel uncomfortable about making a compensation claim against your employer, particularly as you may have concerns over job safety.

The fact is that your employer cannot dismiss you if you are injured due to their negligence in the workplace and they must have insurance in place to cover them. They won’t have to pay you compensation themselves.

Our experienced solicitors can help you with a wide range of factory accident claims such as:

  • Trips, slips, and falls caused by slippery surfaces, debris left on the floor or materials not tidied away.
  • Accidents when workers have been injured by a vehicle at work.
  • Falling objects due to poorly stacked pallets
  • LOLLOP and Fork Lift Truck Accidents resulting from poor training or negligence by another employee
  • Exposure to hazardous chemical substances
  • Poor safety training regarding manual handling of heavy goods
  • Poorly maintained equipment or lack of appropriate protective equipment
  • Wrong procedures being put in place
  • Accidents caused by unsafe procedures and practices

If you are looking to claim compensation for an accident in a factory, contact us now for a free initial consultation from a fully qualified solicitor. Using one of our specialist Factory Accident Solicitors ensures that you have a better chance of winning your claim and receiving all of the compensation and help that you are entitled to all on a No Win No Fee basis.  

PSR is one of the leading practices for Accident at Work Solicitors in Wales and Cheshire and you can contact us safe in the knowledge that one of our expert solicitors will take care of everything for you on a No Win No Fee basis allowing you to carry on with your life whilst we proceed with your legal case.

Paul Rossiter

Managing Director

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

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.
