Serving in the British Armed Forces can expose personnel to a unique set of risks, whether on active operations, during training exercises or in day-to-day service life. When injury or illness results from unsafe conditions, inadequate equipment, medical failings or other forms of negligence, those affected and their families may be entitled to compensation.
The team at MilitaryInjuryClaim.co.uk part of Ison Harrison Solicitors, is dedicated to helping serving personnel, veterans and their dependants understand their legal rights and pursue compensation with expert support. Our approach combines legal expertise with empathy, to help you understand and navigate what can be a complex area of law.
Who We Support
We provide legal advice and assistance to the following:
- Serving members of the Armed Forces
• Veterans from all branches including Army, Royal Navy and Royal Air Force
• Reservists injured during training or deployment
• Dependants and family members in cases involving fatal injuries
• Those affected by service-related long-term physical and psychological conditions
No matter how long ago the injury occurred, or whether you have already engaged with Government backed compensation schemes, our team can help clarify your options.
Types of Military Injury Claims We Handle
Our expertise spans the full range of injury scenarios that may arise from military duties, providing specialist advice tailored to each claimant’s circumstances:

Support for claims arising from trauma, post-traumatic stress disorder and other psychological conditions linked to military experiences.

Road Traffic and Training Accident Claims
Compensation for injuries sustained in military vehicle accidents, either on base, overseas deployment, or in training scenarios where negligence can be shown.
