The majority of industrial disease claims are settled out of court, without the need for a trial.
After submitting a claim, the defendant (usually the employer or their insurance company) will have the opportunity to investigate the claim and respond. They may accept liability and offer a settlement, or they may deny liability and contest the claim. If liability is denied, it may be necessary to issue court proceedings, but even in these cases, it’s still possible to reach a settlement before a trial.
At TDS Law, we aim to resolve claims as efficiently and effectively as possible, and we always try to negotiate a settlement without the need for a trial. Our lawyers have extensive experience in negotiation and mediation, which can often result in a quicker and less stressful resolution for our clients.
However, in the 5% of cases where a trial is necessary, our lawyers are highly experienced in representing clients in court and will provide full support and guidance throughout the process.
