About our Department


We are here to represent the interests of genuine people who are suffering the effects of illness and disease as a result of exposure at work, such as to asbestos or loud noise. It is very common for the exposure to have taken place many years before the illness or disease is realised and diagnosed.

We are able to carry out extensive investigatory work to identify the potential Defendant companies, and their insurers, to ensure a case can still be brought, despite the lapse of several years since the employment period in question.

We work hard to handle all Industrial Disease claims quickly and sensitively. We care about our clients and do our utmost to achieve the best possible outcome for them.

We value ourselves on providing a personal service with the same lawyer handling your case from start to finish.

Contacting us for initial advice about your claim will cost you nothing. If we win your claim you will receive 100% compensation.
