If
you believe that your injury or illness has been caused by a lack of duty and
attention by your employer, contact Claim On The Net to receive full
compensation. You may receive between £1,000 and £1
million.
After an accident at work, Mr David Gower from Tyne and
Wear contacted us. Whilst working as a commercial gardener, he had been hit in
the leg by a stone that flew out of a faulty lawn mower he was operating. He
suffered a broken right leg, which required him to wear a full leg plastercast
for 2 months. His employer was unsympathetic to his cause, which led Mr Gower
to pursue a claim against his employer. Eleven months later, Mr Gower was
awarded £5,600 plus his loss of earnings.
Rory McGann, aged
18, of Leeds was awarded £25,000 following a serious accident at
work involving a faulty trolley jack. His previous solicitors had spent over
two years on the case before he asked us to take over; our solicitors settled
his claim within 8 months.
Harvey Darrell from Oxford contacted us after
an accident at work, where a piece of faulty machinery caused a sanding belt to
fly off the equipment and slice into his right wrist to the bone. Mr Darrell
required numerous stitches and is left with a long, red scar, which he is
extremely self-conscious about. He was awarded £8,200 in
compensation
In 2004, Edward Dean, aged 72, from Sunderland was
diagnosed with Asbestosis as a result of working as a lagger in the shipyard
industry for 31 years. Luckily, he started his claim just within the three year
deadline. His solicitor acted fast and he was awarded
£42,000.
Dennis Mee, aged 68, from Birmingham, spent most
of his working life operating a variety of vibrating tools including windy
picks and vibrating pokers. He suffered from extensive blanching of most of his
fingertips, which interfered with his ability to perform normal tasks such as
making a cup of tea. He was diagnosed with Vibration White Finger and was
awarded £11,250. His solicitor advised Mr Mee that he was also
eligible to claim for Industrial Injuries Disablement Benefit and receive an
additional weekly payment. |
