A top HR consultant has been awarded thousands of pounds in compensation after tripping over a rope outside one of London’s most popular gastropubs, The Westbourne, Notting Hill.
She fell over the low lying boundary of the beer garden causing her to fracture her wrist. The accident affected not only her physical health but also had a serious effect on her mental health and social life.
After undergoing surgery, she was left with what she considered “horrendous scarring that she was extremely conscious of.” She also suffered post-traumatic arthritis and a noticeable difference in personality.
The effects of the accident meant that she was unable to return to her high earning successful career and thus would potentially have to find a new profession.
The accident was as a result of the bar tenders irresponsibility and carelessness. The pub admitted liability and she is now in the final stages of settling her claim.
If you or someone you know has had a fall and it wasn’t your fault, you too could be entitled to compensation. Contact a member of our experienced personal injury team to start your claim today.
