Work accident lawyers in Madrid

At our firm, we operate with transparent fees from the outset. We request an initial retainer of €600 plus VAT to cover the initial procedures, and we charge a 15% fee on the compensation awarded only in the event of a successful outcome, from which the retainer already paid is deducted. This means that a significant part of what you pay depends on whether we win your claim. During your first consultation, we will provide you with a detailed breakdown of the exact cost for your case, with no surprises.

In general, workplace accidents are grouped into three types. The accident at the workplace, which occurs within the premises and during working hours. The accident *in itinere*, which occurs on the journey to or from home and work. And the accident on a mission, which happens while you are travelling to carry out a task related to your job outside of your usual workplace. In addition to these, there are other situations that the law also protects, such as occupational diseases or pre-existing injuries aggravated by work.

It depends on the circumstances, but in many cases, yes. You may be entitled to full healthcare assistance, permanent incapacity benefits for a work-related accident, and financial compensation, especially if the accident was due to the company’s failure to implement safety measures. The best way to find out is for us to assess your case: during the first consultation, we’ll tell you if a claim can be made and what you could claim if you have a specialist medical report. We fight for fair financial compensation for your accident without fear of workplace retaliation.

Employment claims are subject to legal deadlines that vary depending on the type of benefit or the relevant procedure. That's why it's important not to let time slip away and to consult your case as soon as possible, so as not to miss the opportunity to claim what you are entitled to. If you tell us your situation, we will tell you the deadline for claiming for your work accident.

During sick leave due to a work-related accident, you are entitled to a temporary disability benefit that covers your salary. This situation can last up to 12 months, extendable by 6 more depending on the severity of the injuries. If the work accident mutual insurance or the company does not pay you what you are owed, we can claim the compensation you are entitled to on your behalf.

Yes. Scars and other bodily injuries are considered compensable damage, especially when they affect visible areas or condition your day-to-day life or your professional life. The amount depends on factors such as size, location, and your age. In the first consultation, we assess your consequences and tell you what compensation for a work accident you could claim.

Yes. Occupational diseases, those caused or aggravated by your work activity, entitle you to the same benefits and compensation as a workplace accident. At our firm, we calculate the compensation for your occupational disease, gather the necessary medical reports, and claim everything you are owed.

It depends on the type of sequel. Non-disabling permanent injuries, those that leave a mark or limitation but do not prevent work, are compensated with a lump-sum indemnity, meaning a one-off payment according to a scale. If the permanent sequelae are more serious and affect your ability to work, they may lead to permanent disability with its own benefit. In the first consultation, we assess your sequelae and tell you what you are entitled to in each case. We also claim for psychological injury from a work accident, such as anxiety or post-traumatic stress resulting from the accident.

Yes, if you have professional contingencies covered. More and more self-employed individuals are paying contributions for work accidents and professional illnesses, which entitles them to benefits and compensation in the event of a work accident for the self-employed. If you tell us your situation, we can check your cover and tell you what you can claim.
