In November 2018, our client had bought a banana milkshake from Asda. After finishing the milkshake, the client found a used and dirty plaster at the bottom of the bottle.

The client suffered from vomiting and diarrhea. The client had ongoing digestive and abdominal problems, requiring 14 days off work.

The client first contacted FPI in April 2019. The case was then eventually settled for £15,000 in July 2021. After the settlement of the case, the client was asked about their experience with FPI which they responded: "“I had an excellent experience with First Personal Injury Solicitors. They worked hard on my behalf and were always available to guide and support me through the process. Highly appreciate all their hard work and I would have no hesitation to recommend their services.”
