Ladder Falls

The majority workers compensation claims arise from poor ladder safety and lack of training from the employer. Work injuries involving falls can result in serious injuries and in some cases fatalities.

If you have suffered a fall from a ladder in the workplace that was not your fault, contact Express Solicitors today on freephone 0800 294 6250 or complete our contact form.
