Military Claims

Ashworth Law’s specialist military claim lawyers can provide expert advice to members or former members of the armed forces. From sustaining physical injuries or suffering psychological trauma to wider problems such as pension entitlement, priority treatment and military covenant issues, Ashworth Law can help.

Whether you are currently serving, or are off-duty or discharged, our experts will guide you through the complex process of claiming compensation following an accident or injury, and can also help you deal with any other issues affecting you or your family. We have many years’ experience of handling complex cases, and we will offer help and advice without any obligation.

Under current UK Law, if you are injured whilst serving in the armed forces, you will be entitled to compensation where the chain of command has failed in it’s duty of care to you.

Every potential claim is different, with circumstances often very personal and distressing to you. We will ensure that our team work closely with you, as well as national charities and medical specialists, to maximise the compensation you receive.

Our team have experience in handling claims in the following areas:

  • Injuries sustained whilst on operations or during a training exercise
  • Psychological trauma and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
  • Fatalities and critical injuries
  • Road traffic accidents involving military vehicles or personnel, either on public roads or on a military facility
  • Injuries caused by the use of defective equipment
  • Disease and illness contracted by military personnel in the workplace
  • Medical negligence such as failure to diagnose illness or delays in the provision of treatment whilst in the care of military or public health services
  • Pension entitlement for personnel or their family
  • Priority treatment
  • Military covenant issues

We promise to make the claims process as simple and hassle-free as possible for you. As the client, you will keep every penny of your compensation and will not be charged a fee from us - our legal costs are recovered on top of the compensation we win for you.

Our specialists offer a free, no obligation consultation. We will clearly explain your options to you so that you can make the choice that best suits your own circumstances.
