£16,000 compensation for young woman injured in car accident

21 May 2009

We secured £16,000 compensation for a young female injured when the other party pulled out from a side road into her path.

What we did

We secured an early admission of liability, then successfully negotiated settlement of the claim to include the cost of future surgery.

Background

Our client sustained a broken collarbone in the accident, which was fixed by a plate and screws. This surgery left her with unsightly scarring over the collarbone, and our client was self-conscious about it. We successfully recovered compensation for her injuries and past financial losses. We also secured a sum to pay for future surgery to remove the plate and screw and to improve the appearance of the scarring.
