Simpson Sissons & Brooke Solicitors

Where people are working around machinery, accidents are quite common and may result in severe injury and amputations.

This is sometimes because the machinery is not properly guarded or is otherwise unsafe and poorly maintained.

On other occasions the person using the machine has not been given adequate training and sometimes fellow workers have been careless in their use of the machine causing injury to another.

The law relating to the use of machinery at work is complex and we are skilled in looking at the machines themselves, the training given by employers in how to use the machines and the general risk assessments carried out prior to accidents having occurred.

Our knowledge of laws relating to the use of plant and machinery means that we are particularly skilled in winning compensation claims on behalf of those involved in such accidents.
