Eye Injury Compensation Claims, Scotland

Any injury to the eye can have a severe impact on your work and personal life, even if it is a relatively minor eye injury, from which you make a full recovery.

Eye injury inspection

While most people who suffer eye injuries do recover fully, the injury can be debilitating during the recovery process.

Common eye injuries include:

  • Scratched corneas.
  • Swelling of the eye.
  • Contamination by substances getting into the eye.

Eye injury compensation claims can be made if you have suffered an eye injury due to someone else’s negligence. This could be because eye protectors weren’t provided, or that harmful substances weren’t appropriately labelled.

However you have been injured, specialist personal injury lawyers from Jones Whyte will be able to help you claim eye injury compensation.

Our Fee Structure

Success Fee: If your claim is successful, our success fee is charged as a percentage of compensation awarded to you. This fee covers our legal services and includes the cost of After the Event (ATE) insurance to protect you against having to pay the other side’s costs if your claim is unsuccessful.

No Win, No Fee Explained: You will not pay any legal fees if your claim is unsuccessful. However, if we secure compensation for you, our success fee will be deducted from your compensation award before payment to you.

When You Might Be Liable for Costs:

  • If you choose to terminate your agreement with us but later are successful with your claim through other means, such as with another firm of solicitors, you may be liable for the cost of the to work we have completed on your behalf.
  • In other exceptional circumstances as detailed in our instruction agreement and terms of business, such as if you have mislead us or falsely represented part of your claim.

These terms will be fully outlined in your instruction agreement and Terms of Businesss with us, and are available for you to review before you make any binding commitment. You are under no obligation to these terms by making an initial enquiry.
