Military Claims

Don’t assume that, just because you work in the military, you can’t seek compensation for any injuries you sustain as a consequence.

Danger may come with the territory, but your employer is still obliged by law to take due care to minimise all risks to your health and safety. If they don’t, and you are injured in some way, you may be eligible to claim compensation.

Expert solicitors with military experience

Taking on your employer can be daunting but you’re not alone. We handle all the difficulties for you, keeping you informed and involved at each stage. What’s more, a number of the solicitors in our Armed Forces Claims Department have a military background. They understand your work environment and call on that unique understanding to complement their legal expertise when fighting your case.

It’s easy to get the ball rolling. We ask you a few simple questions and, in most cases, we can tell you within minutes whether or not your claim is likely to be successful. Once you decide to go ahead, we move quickly and decisively to secure the compensation you deserve. And with our no win, no fee promise, you don’t have to pay us a single penny unless we win.

Compensation amounts

As well as making a claim for civil negligence, you may able to claim from the Armed Forces Compensation Scheme which can considerably increase the amount of compensation you receive.

In your initial, free consultation, we will talk through your circumstances and can often give you an indication of how much compensation you may be able to claim.

Can I claim?
