I am suffering a stress-related illness caused by work – can you help?
1
Most jobs involve some stress, it is only in extreme cases that you can successfully bring a compensation claim.
You will need to be able to show that the stress should have been predictable to your employer and preventable and that the direct cause was the behaviour of your employer or a colleague.
We can help you gather evidence such as a report to show that you have a clinically diagnosed stress-related illness caused by work, witness statements from colleagues and details of complaints made by you or anyone else about the stress you are under.
Generally you have up to three years (sometimes less) from the date you first became ill to bring your claim but the chances of success are likely to be higher the earlier you take legal advice. Make use of our Free First Step service to find out whether we believe we can help. Where we feel you have a reasonable chance of success we can offer you are No Win No Fee service.
