The worker, a father of three, had been the sole breadwinner for his family. His injuries not only affected his ability to work but also placed a significant emotional and financial burden on his family. The employer, a large construction company, refused to accept responsibility, arguing that the worker had failed to follow safety guidelines.

Legal Strategy

Ben Waters took on the case, gathering evidence to prove employer negligence. He obtained safety inspection reports, witness statements, and expert testimony to demonstrate that the equipment was defective and the employer had failed to maintain a safe work environment. Ben filed a personal injury claim and negotiated aggressively with the employer’s insurance company.

Our Process

  1. Evidence Collection: Ben gathered medical records, safety reports, and witness statements.

  2. Expert Consultation: He consulted with medical and engineering experts to assess the extent of the injuries and the cause of the accident.

  3. Claim Filing: Ben filed a personal injury claim with the Liverpool courts.

  4. Negotiation: He negotiated with the insurance company to secure a fair settlement.

  5. Court Representation: When negotiations stalled, Ben represented the client in court, presenting a compelling case.

Result

The worker was awarded £1.2 million in compensation, covering medical expenses, lost wages, and future care costs. The case also prompted the employer to improve workplace safety standards, preventing similar accidents in the future.
