Successful Personal Injury Claims

Below, you will find just a small selection of some of the personal injury compensation claims John has dealt with in the Leeds office.

Disabled following accident at work

In this case John's client was involved in a serious accident at work and suffered a badly fractured leg.  The injury left John's client permanently disabled and he couldn't return to his job which involved heavy manual labour.

John fought hard with the other side's insurers and recovered £200,000 compensation for the client which included an amount for lost earnings he was likely to suffer in the future due to his disability.

Building Site Accident

John's client in this case was working on a building site.  Despite wearing high visibility clothing, he was hit by the bucket of a large mechanical digger being operated by a colleague.

He suffered a nasty leg injury and a fractured rib and was left with a disability which made it impossible to continue with the manual labour he was doing before the accident and his employers ended his contract.

John made a claim for compensation against his client's employers and recovered £100,000 damages which included a payment for the loss of earnings he was likely to suffer in the future.
