Frequently Asked Questions
How much compensation can I claim for a vehicle or forklift injury?
It depends on the severity of your injury. Soft tissue injuries and minor fractures can settle for €10,000 to €30,000, while more serious injuries such as crush injuries, amputations, or spinal damage can reach €60,000 to €200,000+. We assess your case for free and give you an honest estimate.
Who is liable if I'm hit by a forklift at work?
In most cases, your employer is liable. They have a legal obligation to ensure forklift operators are properly trained, that pedestrian routes are clearly marked, and that safety procedures are followed. If any of these were lacking, you have grounds for a claim.
Will making a claim affect my job?
No. It’s illegal for your employer to penalise or dismiss you for making a legitimate workplace injury claim. Your employment rights are fully protected.
Do I need to pay anything upfront?
No. We work on a no win, no fee basis. You won’t pay a cent unless we successfully secure compensation for you.
