2.Report the accident If you are injured in an
accident,make sure that you report this to your
employer,police or occupier,depending on your
circumstances,and document it in the accident log
book (if available). Make sure that the entry in
the log book is accurate-employers sometimes try
to play down an incident or trivialise the
injuries to try and reduce the extent of their
liability.

3. Go to hospital and keep your doctor
up-to-date Visiting your hospital will ensure
there is a record of your injuries and an
assessment as to your prognosis .This will make
it easier to prove to the opponent that you have
been injured in the accident. Dont just suffer
in silence,if you are in pain,let the doctor know
,it doesnt matter if you think it will just go
away by itself. If you arent recovering as
quickly as expected-let your doctor know.

4.Dont delay your claim Do not delay in bringing
the claim forward as it is easy to forget or lose
key information which will make it more difficult
to prove the case.

consuming and confusing, as can the cost. Make
sure that you instruct a specialist who can help
you at every stage of the process, be clear in
