Circumstances of accident
Our client was cycling to work when a car failed to give way and pulled out of a junction from the left. As a result, our client was thrown over the handlebars of their bike and landed in the middle of the road.
How we helped our client
Our client sustained a closed head injury, soft tissue injuries and a fracture to the clavicle and middle finger.
Medical attention was sought and a splint was provided to aid the recovery of the broken clavicle.
A specialist orthopaedic surgeon prepared a report which confirmed our client’s injuries would resolve within 14-months from the accident.
Settlement
Our client’s claim was subsequently settled for £7,500 by way of negotiation with the third-party insurers.
Accordingly, we were able to obtain a settlement that our client was happy with, settle their claim swiftly and without the need for litigation.
