Sporting injuries

Mrs Smart was taking part in a Step Aerobics session when she sustained her sports injury. She sprained her knee during a particularly crowded session at the local sports centre. The council, which owns the centre, had failed to control the number of people participating in the aerobics session. Case Direct won £3500 compensation for Mrs Smart’s sports injury without having to go to court.

Mrs Fenwick injured her knee when she slipped on the dance floor at her local bowling club. There had been oil left on the dance floor after an entertainment show had finished performing earlier that evening. Case Direct were successful in winning compensation of £3500 for Mrs Fenwick because the club had failed to ensure that the dance floor was safe.

Mr Parsons sustained his sports injury when he attended a team building weekend with his work colleagues. He strained his neck whilst trying to complete an army assault course. Case Direct sued his employers for forcing Mr Parsons to attend the weekend and we achieved a compensation award of £5,000 for his sports injury, without having to go to court.

Mr Campbell had a sports injury on a “flume” water slide at a swimming pool near where he lives. He broke his foot when the attendants drained the pool at the bottom of the shoot before closing the slide. Case Direct took up Mr Cambell’s claim for compensation and the local council paid him £10,000 for his sports injury.
