Not all road traffic accidents involve collisions between cars. It’s very possible for pedestrians to suffer injuries through contact with vehicles — even those that aren’t moving at speed. No matter the circumstances, our solicitors are here to support victims who have been involved in any type of road traffic accident that wasn’t their fault. And that’s exactly what we did in 2019.
What happened?
The claimant we represented was helping his friend move a vehicle. Unfortunately, while the friend was steering, he lost control of the car. This led to the vehicle crushing our client’s legs against a wall.
The claims process
As no-win, no-fee solicitors, we only ever take on accident claims that we feel have a very high chance of success. We felt confident that the claimant in this case deserved compensation for his injuries, which included:
- Crushing injury to both legs
- Leg bone fractures
- PTSD
We took his pain and suffering into account to estimate a fair compensation amount and were able to get the case settled quickly and efficiently without admission of liability from the driver of the vehicle.
The outcome
As a result, the claimant received a compensation award of £50,000 for his leg injuries to support his ongoing recovery and rehabilitation.
