A man left with significant burns after a workplace incident has secured a settlement from his employer with support from Sintons.
The engineering worker was injured at work while fixing a pump machine when another member of staff accessed the area and stepped onto the welding cable, which in turn ignited a can of WD40, sending an arc of flame shooting towards the Claimant.
He was left with significant injuries, leaving scarring to his face and arm, as well as psychological trauma as a result of what happened.
The man turned to Sintons for support after the incident, in March last year, and secured a settlement which has enabled him to access bespoke rehabilitation and professional psychological services as he tries to rebuild his life.
He was supported by David Knipe, associate in Sintons’ personal injury team, which acts nationally for people who have suffered injuries which were not their fault and is renowned for its outstanding legal and client service.
“It has been great to work with Sintons, I received a fantastic service,” said the claimant.
“The work David Knipe did for me was first-rate, he is a wonderful man, really nice to work with and very experienced.
“I would recommend Sintons to anyone.”
David Knipe adds: “Our client in this matter suffered significant injuries but also understandable mental trauma as a result of what happened to him, and we were pleased to step in on his behalf and secure the support he needed. By securing a bespoke package, which included psychological support he needs, he will have the best possible chance of moving on with his life.
“At Sintons, we are renowned for fighting hard on behalf of our clients to get the justice they need and deserve, and we leave no stone unturned in our efforts to secure the very best outcome for them and their families. We are absolutely committed to delivering that and are very pleased with the outcome we secured for our client in this matter. We wish him the very best for the future.”
