Accident
at Work
We recently had a client who had to kneel down to lower the
shutters at her place of employment. She had to do this as
the key fob that operated the mechanism was not working. She
injured her knee quite badly. She had instructed another firm
of solictors who had acted for her for 2 years without success.
They had
closed her file. When she contacted us she had 4 months left
before her right to claim expired. We fought hard for her
and the solicitors (a large legal firm) acting for her employer
were battling hard not to pay her anything.We managed to secure
a settlement for her in the sum of £20,000.00. She could
have easily not bothered to make a claim after her first solicitors
got nowhere for her. Our specialist solicitor took great pride
in the success of this case and had fought on (where another
solictor had already given up).
Road Traffic Example
We recently had a client who was involved in a road traffic
accident with his wife and her sister. They all suffered whiplash.
They were not happy
with the solicitor they used initially and then transferred
their files to us. We swiftly managed to secure the family
a total of £7850.00 in
compensation.
Food
Poisoning
We recently successfully won a case for four clients who had
suffered food poisoning after eating a chicken donna kebab
from an indian takeaway. We managed to fight their case for
them and negotiate a settlement in the total sum of £28,800.00
for them. We exceeded the clients excpectations and advised
them to wait for an offer that was fair and right in their
claims instead of just settling the claims below value. We
negotiated hard on their behalf.To show our support and belief
in our client we used our own money to fund the court fees
and our own money to fund the actual day to day costs of running
the claim (which runs into thousands of pounds). We have not
asked our the client to pay any money to us and our commitment
to our client is that they receive all the compensation they
are awarded.
Tripping Incident
We are curently acting for a young boy, now aged almost 6.
In October 2004, when he was 2 he fell over a bollard and
injured himself. It has taken over 3 years of battling with
a local council but we have managed to secure an offer in
the sum of £6,000. We have never given up on the client
despite the fact that there were numerous factors detrimental
to our claim. To show our support and belief in our client
we used our own money to fund the court fees and our own money
to fund the actual day to day costs of running the claim (which
runs into thousands of pounds). We have not asked our the
client to pay any money to us and our commitment to our client
is that they receive all the compensation they are awarded.

Bike
Cyclist accident
We acted for a client who was knocked off his push bike by
a car. The insurance company for the car driver made a low
offer to the client to settle his claim. With our expertise
and guidance we secured a settlement for our client of £5,000.00.
To show our support and belief in our client we used our own
money to fund the court fees and our own money to fund the
actual day to day costs of running the claim (which runs into
thousands of pounds). We have not asked our the client to
pay any money to us and our commitment to our client is that
they receive all the compensation they are awarded.
Accident
in an Ambulance
We acted for an elderly lady who had injured her leg. She
was being taken to hospital for treatment. When she was being
moved by the ambulance operator they caused her good leg to
be cut on the wheelchair. The client now had two legs which
she could not use and her mobility was affected. Although
she was 82 years old she was mobile. This case is quite a
sensitive one as our client was elderly and left in a difficult
situation. The ambulance company were not accepting fault
and fought quite hard against us.
We however used our expertise and secure the client £3,000
which was actually less than her claim was worth. However
our client wished to finalise the claim and we wished to look
after and support her and acted upon her wishes.To show our
support and belief in our client we used our own money to
fund the court fees and our own money to fund the actual day
to day costs of running the claim (which runs into thousands
of pounds). We have not asked our the client to pay any money
to us and our commitment to our client is that they receive
all the compensation they are awarded.
Accident in a supermarket
We recently acted for a client who had slipped in a well known
supermarket on some pea soup. The supermarket did nothing
to help her and then denied the existence of the soup. Our
client was ultimately successful in her claim and received
£3,500 in damages from the supermarket. This was an
excellent award for this claim.
We are currently acting for a client who was installing blinds
in a dentist surgery. He caught his finger on a used syringe
which had been left on a window sill. At first the claim looked
difficult to prove and the defendant fought the claim hard.
We managed to get the client an award of £3,200. |
