Our medical negligence solicitors are pursuing a claim for a professional footballer who fractured his right distal tibial shaft and was admitted to hospital for surgery to fix the fracture by intra medullary nail insertion.

Our elderly client tripped over a defective and broken paving stone when walking along a busy high street. She fell forwards landing on her dominant right arm and sustained a nasty fracture and a shoulder injury.

Our client worked as an HGV driver for a haulage firm. Part of his job involved repetitive work opening and shunting large high-sided curtain HGV trailers many times a day.
