Circumstances of the accident
Our client was stationary at traffic lights waiting to turn right. As he awaited oncoming traffic to pass, the third party failed to maintain an adequate breaking distance and collided with the rear of our client’s vehicle.
How we helped our client
We intimated the claim to the third-party insurers. They responded and confirmed that liability was admitted.
Settlement
Our client suffered a whiplash injury to his neck and lower back. With physiotherapy treatment his injuries resolved after 5 months.
Our client was self-employed at the time of the accident and was unable to work for 4 months which resulted in a significant wage loss.
We instructed a medical report to determine the extent of his injuries and prognosis for the future. Fortunately, our client achieved a swift recovery with treatment and received an award of £8,000.
