Silhouettes of palm trees at night against a backdrop of colorful fireworks illuminating the sky. The fireworks create vibrant bursts of light and color, with hues of red, purple, and green visible among the smoke and haze.
Personal Injury partner Keith Barrett is currently representing several UK Nationals injured during a New Year's Eve firework display at the luxury Hilton Hotel, Barbados.

About 100 people were watching the display when stray fireworks suddenly launched into the crowd, leaving some people badly burnt. Keith has instructed US Law Firm Foley and Lardner as Local Counsel.
