Personal Injury Questions

I was told to help a colleague move a photocopier to another department. I hurt my back and am likely to be off work for several months. My personnel manager says I won’t get full pay while I’m away. Is that right?

I was exposed to asbestos dust 35 years ago when I used to lag pipes for a building company, and my doctor tells me I will now have to give up work. I have tried to find my old employer but the company ceased trading many years ago. Am I too late to claim compensation?

Six weeks after my mother started a new job she fell down some stairs at work, breaking a bone in her foot. She was in plaster for six weeks, and has just undergone further painful surgery. After the accident her employer sacked her. Is there anything she can do about this?

A friend injured his hand at work. His employers didn’t give him any training whatsoever, but when the case went to court this fact wasn’t brought up. Who is therefore liable for his injury?

Last year I tripped on a poorly-repaired pavement left by contractors laying cables. I’m 73 and suffered severe bruising to my left leg and arm. The council told me the contractors were responsible. I wrote to the firm enclosing photos and demanding £500 compensation for pain, suffering, bruising and a suit of clothes, but three letters and a ‘phone call later there’s still no sign of any money.

Ten years ago I was the victim of a vicious attack and received more than £3,000 in compensation from the Criminal Injuries Board. I never recovered and have been constantly under medication for depression. They tell me though that no further compensation is available.

My daughter who is four pulled a heavy stool over on to herself while we were in a travel shop. She had to have four stitches in the cut she received to her eye, which we’re told will leave a scar. Do we have a claim against the shop owners?

I was knocked down by a car and managed to get the number, but the driver is denying the accident ever happened! I injured my back and called the doctor straight away but there were no witnesses. Do I have any chance of bringing a claim against the driver?

In March I slipped and fell on the ramp of a temporary wooden walkway erected round some building work and injured my back, the boards were slippery after heavy rain. The council’s insurers say the contractors provided an indemnity against such accidents and have denied liability. Where do I go from here?
