Modern Techniques with Traditional Values

False Sickness Claims

Third Man Investigations have a wealth of experience carrying out investigations on behalf of Solicitors, Loss Adjusters, HR Advisors and private companies that are dealing with claimants that are suspected of either falsify or over-exaggerate reports of injury or health problems that they claim are inhibiting them from being able to work or carry out their daily lives. These can be cases in regards to an insurance claim against your client or protection for your client during an employment tribunal should your client believe that the claimant is falsifying claims in order to remain in employment and continue receiving sick allowance. Using a combination of investigatory experience, the latest surveillance techniques and modern technology our team will undertake the investigation and justification of claims against an individual or organisation. Provide reports for use as clear and impartial evidence in relation to the extent of any injuries, health problems or loss suffered by the claimant. Case managers will liaise with you or your client directly to ensure that all operations are carried out as efficiently and effectively as possible. Your case manager will be available throughout the investigation providing a clear line of communication, ensuring you and your client are aware of the evidence collected as the case progresses.

Case Study:

An employee claiming that after suffering a fall at work they were unable to work or drive due to ongoing back pain issues. This had resulted in long term paid sick leave and a pending liability claim. After the employers received a tip off that the employees claim may not be valid, they instructed us to conduct an investigation and surveillance was carried out, as a result substantial evidence was gathered not only of the employee frequently driving and participating in physical sports but also working for themselves through the week in their own window cleaning business. Needless to say that the company quickly resolved the sick leave issue and the threats of a liability claim never came to fruition.
