Vanessa's Case Experience
- Vanessa pursued a personal injury claim on behalf of a claimant who sustained injuries due to negligence in the workplace. While leaving work and carrying her bags, the claimant slipped on a discarded clinical wipe left on the floor. Her left foot slipped backwards, causing her to fall forward. Although her fall was partially broken by her bags, she sustained injury to her left knee from the impact. Vanessa successfully secured £13,265 in damages for the claimant.
