ALEXANDER-HUNT about a successful claim that not only
helped his client but potentially hundreds of other people.
The case was decided by the Court of Appeal at the end of
January 2021. My client sustained an injury in 2004 while working
as a disability support worker. She was punched in the face which
resulted in dental injuries and an injury to her neck. The injury
ultimately required her to have surgery in 2019.
