Keith Morton KC and Dominic Adamson KC secure a half million pound reduction in fine for Tata Steel UK.
In what is believed to be the first successful appeal against sentence for a very large organisation sentenced for health and safety offences under the Definitive Guidelines, Keith Morton KC and Dominic Adamson KC (instructed by Damon Burt of Plexus) secured a substantial reduction in a fine imposed on Tata Steel UK following its guilty plea to two health and safety offences.
