Circumstances of claim
Our client was a passenger in a car when a Third-Party Driver collided with the front of the vehicle. The Third-Party Driver took a blind corner at speed, and positioned themselves in the middle of the road, causing a collision.
How we helped our client
A claim was intimated to the Insurers for the Third-Party driver. Liability was admitted.
We instructed a medical report from an Orthopaedic Consultant to comment on our clients’ injuries and prognosis given a pre-existing injury had flared up.
The report was provided to the Third-Party Insurers inviting settlement proposals.
Settlement
Our client was diagnosed as suffering from whiplash to their neck and an exacerbation of her pre-existing shoulder injury, along with associated travel anxiety. They returned to their pre-accident position 9 months post-accident.
Fortunately, our client had a swift recovery and was awarded damages of £4,200.
