Accidents at work represent a major part of the claimant lawyer's case load. According to the HSE there were over 148,000 reported accidents at work in 2010/11, of which over 26,000 were major injuries.

Written by specialist personal injury lawyers with extensive experience of employer's liability cases, APIL Guide to Accidents at Work is a practical and authoritative text which sets out the law and practice required to conduct such claims effectively.
