Real Life Stories
Slips, trips or falls can be traumatic when they happen and life-altering, sometimes for months or years after the accident occurred. Many accident victims are overwhelmed by the idea of adding even more complication to their lives by involving themselves in a personal injury lawsuit. Considering what you have already been through, these fears are certainly understandable. However, keep in mind that the harm you endured was not your fault; in fact, it was caused by the negligence of another party who should be held responsible. If you win compensation, you can at least be reimbursed for the costs you had to pay as a result of your injury, and you may also win damages because of the pain and suffering and loss of wages you have experienced. Here are some brief examples of people just like you who were able to get the justice they deserved:
- A woman sustained injury to her foot when she walked on broken glass in a hotel. She was wearing thin-soled open backed sandals. She was left with a painful cut on her foot and had permanent scarring. Solicitors were able to see that she was awarded £2000.
- A woman fell on a slippery footpath whilst at work, sustaining a severe fracture to her arm that also required hospitalization. It led to permanent injury and disability, as well as the woman’s inability to return to her job. Her solicitors were able to see that she received £50,000 from her negligent employer.
- A woman received £11,500 in compensation after slipping and falling over leaflets that were scattered about a store’s vestibule, breaking her arm, and bruising her hip and wrist. Her solicitors were able to obtain this compensation because the owner of the store had failed to take steps to ensure the safety of the shoppers who came to the premises.
As you can see, injuries and accidents can happen to anyone and in almost any circumstance. When the slip, trip or fall is a direct result of a person’s, employer’s or business owner’s negligence, you have every right to receive compensation.
