£10,000 for injured gym user who was told he didn’t have a case
Mr D was using a piece of gym equipment when the cable snapped causing him to fall backwards and suffer head and upper body injuries.
Initially Mr D instructed a local firm of solicitors to deal with his case. After bringing a claim on his behalf the Defendant denied liability. The firm of solicitors then advised Mr D, a year after taking the matter on, he did not have a case and closed their file.
Fortunately, Mr D spoke to Aston Knight Solicitors, explaining he was never comfortable with the solicitors he had instructed, and asked for a second opinion. Following an initial discussion, Mr Khan agreed to take the case on.
Within 6 months Aston Knight Solicitors obtained an admission of liability, however, they contested the nature and extent of the injuries claimed. After a lengthy battle, including court proceedings, a settlement of £10,000 was agreed, which Mr D was delighted with.
