Armed forces training exercises are tough. They are intended to prepare you for combat, so by their nature they are dangerous.
But, like any employer, the Ministry of Defence (MoD) has a duty of care to you as an employee and should make sure that precautions are taken to prevent unnecessary injury during training. If you think the MoD has failed in this respect, our solicitors may be able to help you seek compensation through a military training injury claim.
Our team of specialist armed forces lawyers, which includes a number of former service personnel, has over 25 years of experience dealing with compensation claims after military training accidents. We recently helped the loved ones of a soldier to claim compensation after he died in an SAS training exercise in the Brecon Beacons.
If you’ve been injured in a training accident while serving in the Army, Navy, RAF or Special Forces, you may be able to claim compensation. You could also claim if you were injured while serving in the Army Reserve (formerly the Territorial Army), Navy, RAF or Special Forces Reserves.
Making a military training injury compensation claim against the MoD may seem daunting but we have a proven track record in successful military claims. We'll bring our experience and expertise to your case, supporting you every step of the way with sensitivity and care.
If you have any questions about making a claim, contact us on 0800 022 3321 for a free initial consultation or contact us online, and we'll discuss your accident and give our expert advice on your options.
