£40,000 compensation for hairdresser who suffered a fractured wrist needing surgery after slipping on Salon floor

Richard Smith, a personal injury specialist at Pepperells Solicitors, has recently acted for a client from Beverley, in their compensation claim following an accident at the Hair Salon where they work.

The accident resulted in our client having to undergo surgery to insert a metal plate in order to fix the fracture to their wrist and spending a night in hospital. Their arm was placed in a plaster cast for a number of weeks as they recovered from their injuries, before starting a course of physiotherapy.

With the legal expertise provided by Richard Smith, they were able to secure a £40,000 damages settlement, without the need to pursue the case in court. The compensation settlement included their lost earnings. This came as a huge relief to our client as the prospect of having to appear in court is daunting and something we try to avoid in as many cases as possible.
