Janet Finney – Serious Injury compensation solicitor

Serious accident compensation solicitor – Stoke-on-Trent

Janet is a qualified solicitor who joined us over 10 years ago. She is an associate and manages our Stoke-on-Trent Branch.

Her area of expertise includes all personal injury case types, both accident and industrial diseases. She has represented clients throughout central England who have suffered injuries or lost loved ones because of a road traffic accident, an accident at work, or who have developed an industrial disease through the negligence of their employer.

Sadly, Janet has had to fight to secure substantial compensation for accident victims who have suffered life-changing serious injuries, including amputations. In many cases too, Janet has represented the family when the accident has resulted in the death of their loved one.

Janet’s commitment to securing the highest settlement she can for her clients is well known, particularly in serious injury, fatalities and asbestos-related compensation claims (often six-figures) even in very difficult circumstances.

Her main emphasis is always on client care, putting the needs of her clients first. Where possible she will fight for early interim payments and rehabilitation costs in order that her clients can begin their treatment and recovery as soon as possible.

Although Janet’s main area of expertise is dealing with serious injury compensation claims resulting from accidents, she also has in-depth knowledge in representing victims of asbestos-related diseases and is the head of the specialist asbestos team in our Stoke office.

Janet is a member of APIL (The Association of Personal Injury Lawyers) where she is credited with Senior litigator status

Successful accident compensation claims

Here is just one example of a serious injury compensation claim that Janet has successfully fought.

Work accident compensation claim – Below the knee amputation

A young man at the time of this work related accident, this client will need care for the rest of his life. Janet knew that whilst his family would be extremely supportive, he would need substantial compensation to allow him a level of independence as time went on.

His injuries mean that he must live in ground floor accommodation, which would allow wheelchair accommodation in the future should his condition deteriorate.

Janet initially secured a substantial interim payment in order that his treatment and accommodation searches could begin, and went on to secure a substantial six-figure sum.

Her client had been injured when he slipped into unguarded rotating machinery and had to have a below-the-knee amputation on one leg, and suffered hip and knee injuries to the other.
