Successful Asbestos Claims
Below, you will find just a small selection of some of the personal injury compensation claims Neil has dealt with in the Nottingham office.
Mesothelioma Compensation for Widow
Neil's client in this case was the widow of a man who died whilst still in his 50's. He had endured many painful tests and procedures before being diagnosed with mesothelioma and contacting Thompsons Solicitors.
Sadly, he died before Neil was able to recover his compensation as delays were caused by one of his former employers' insurers refusing to admit liability for negligently exposing the man to asbestos.
They did eventually admit liability and Neil recovered almost a quarter of a million pounds for the man's widow which took into account his young age at the time of his death.
Asbestos Compensation for Joiner
In this case Neil's client was the widow of a joiner who died of mesothelioma after being negligently exposed to asbestos by his employers years before. He had worked on many different construction sites throughout the 1970's and 1980's where he was exposed to asbestos dust by work taking place without appropriate protection.
He had not felt up to making the claim during his lifetime so his wife contacted Thompsons after his death.
Neil recovered over £140,000 compensation for his widow which provided some financial security for her without her husband.
