If you are pursuing an injury claim for a workplace accident, a road traffic incident, or an injury sustained in a public place, our legal team is available and ready to guide you through every technical step.

How long do I have to file a compensation claim?

Firstly, some injuries can be accrued over a period of time – so while the day the symptoms first appeared is important, it may be that the limitation period started earlier when the circumstances causing the symptoms first commenced.
