£30,000 settlement for a woman who was injured after slipping on spilt milk

Tim Gleave, a Chartered Legal Executive in our Personal Injury team, has obtained a £30,000 settlement for a lady who slipped on spilt milk at her local supermarket.

Mrs X slipped and fell on what was believed to be milk that had been spilt and left on the floor. Mrs X subsequently suffered soft tissue damage to her right shoulder and a post-surgical frozen shoulder that lengthened her time of recovery.

As a result of the incident, Mrs X had to take time off work for treatment and recovery, leading to loss of earnings and is now at a future disadvantage for employment opportunities.

Tim comments: “No one expects to visit their local supermarket and get injured. In this case, we were pleased to achieve a settlement of £30,000 and Mrs X was delighted to receive the compensation.”
