Baker's Asthma
Date Posted : 27/04/2011 A lot of people don't even know that they can claim for Dermatitis and asthma - even if they have had the symptoms from a young age! It's simple, if a skin or breathing condition is made worse when at work - the likelyhood is that it's due to the working environment - breathing in fumes, using strong hand sanatizer or a poor ventilation system are just some examples of how asthma or skin conditions can be made worse. The employer has a duty of care to improve these situations and should follow strict health and safety guidelines. www.asthmaclaims.net View Post

No Win, No Fee as we know it, is changing soon. Solicitors will be forced by the Government to take a percentage of their clients compensation.

Families of Merseyside asbestos victims secure landmark court ruling
Date : 10 Mar 2011

TWO families have won groundbreaking legal claims to compensation for their Merseyside relatives’ exposure to asbestos.

In separate cases, relatives of Huyton mother-of-two Dianne Willmore and Eastham-based Enid Costello were awarded damages after convincing courts their deaths were related to “low level” asbestos exposure.

Last night, legal experts said the Supreme Court ruling could pave the way for similar claims nationwide.

Mrs Willmore, 49, was awarded £240,000 damages after convincing a High Court judge in July, 2009, that her time as a pupil at the former Bowring Comprehensive School, in Huyton, caused her incurable lung cancer.

Virgin lounge masseuses sue airline after developing RSI
Date : 10 Mar 2011

Beauty therapists Jayne Evans, 40, and Michelle Hindmarch, 35, each developed chronic muscular strain – including pain in their shoulders, upper back and wrists – after giving intensive shiatsu massages at the airline’s Terminal 3 “Clubhouse” lounge at Heathrow.

Their barrister, Theodore Huckle, told the High Court that both women were “devastated” at being forced to abandon their careers as a result of their injuries.

Muscular aches and pains mean the women cannot carry out a range of household tasks including peeling carrots or “taking the Sunday roast out of the oven”, the court heard.

Mrs Evans, who still works for Virgin Atlantic on the administrative side, is seeking £327,000 compensation from the airline for exposing her to the risk of injury, while Mrs Hindmarch is claiming £235,000 in damages.

Company fined after exposing workers and the public to asbestos
Date : 08 Mar 2011

A refurbishment company has been fined after workers and the public were exposed to asbestos in a Leicestershire village

Shengxuan Company Ltd was converting a shop in Borough Street, Castle Donington, into a restaurant on 16 June 2010.

Part of the work involved converting an integral garage into a storeroom but in doing so, workers disturbed asbestos-containing materials. This was then put in a skip by the workers, who were unaware of its presence or its risks.
