We acted for a man who suffered damage to his tooth after biting into a ham sandwich which was contaminated with a foreign body. The hard object, which our client believes was a piece of bone, caused immediate pain and resulted in him breaking a tooth. The pain worsened so he consulted his dentist, who then removed the tooth.
Initially, the Defendants did not respond on the issue of liability however, sometime later accepted the injuries were caused as a result of their negligence. They made an offer to our client but we advised that it was not proportionate to the injury he sustained. After some negotiation, we managed to significantly increase the offer and received £2,750 in full and final settlement.
If you have suffered similar broken teeth injuries from finding a foreign object in your food, you may be entitled to a No Win No Fee compensation claim. Contact us today to find out how we can help you.
