Unfortunately, accidents do occur and their impact can be considerable; fortunately, there is a large body of civil law in place allowing the victims of such accidents the opportunity to claim compensation from the parties responsible for their injuries.

- Offshore injury
- Injury in the workplace – for example, farming or factory work accidents
- Car accidents
- Cycling accidents

- Serious head or spinal injury
Oil and gas worker claims
Aberdeen is the centre of Scotland's oil economy, including offices for its offshore installations and its onshore terminals.
Nearly 38 billion barrels of oil have been extracted from Scotland's North Sea fields over the past five decades and this has helped Aberdeen become one of the UK's most significant wealth drivers.
However, over that time a number of people have sustained injury working in what is, traditionally, a very hazardous industry. If you have suffered injury while working in the oil or gas industry, it is important that you claim compensation to help you meet the costs of your medical and rehabilitative needs as well as to provide some recognition for your pain and suffering.
Thompsons' personal injury solicitors can assist you whether you work in an engineering, technical or commercial capacity.
Road traffic accidents in Aberdeen
Thompsons personal injury solicitors are committed to helping you receive your full legal entitlement to compensation in the event you sustain personal injury in a road traffic accident. This is true regardless of whether you were a pedestrian, a driver, a cyclist, motorcyclist or another road user at the time of the accident and wherever the accident took place in Scotland.
We have experience of securing settlement for relatively minor injuries, such as whiplash, all the way through to life-changing spinal or brain injuries that require high-value settlement in order to meet the ongoing care, treatment and rehabilitation needs of the injured party.
As specialists in this field, we know how to negotiate with powerful car insurance companies to ensure that your rights and interests are never side-lined.
Furthermore, we can help in cases where you have been involved in an Aberdeen road traffic accident in which the liable driver did not have insurance or caused a hit-and-run accident. In these cases, we can take your claim to the Motor Insurers’ Bureau to ensure that you are able to achieve a suitable level of compensation.
