£29,000 settlement for driver following collision with a bus

01 September 2009

Mr A suffered a fractured forearm, a whiplash injury to his neck and laceration to his wrist when a bus pulled across his path at traffic lights.

What we did

Shoosmiths successfully obtained compensation for the injuries Mr A obtained together with his financial losses including the private cost of future surgery that Mr A had been advised he would require

Background

Mr A was driving his vehicle through traffic lights when a bus driver who was driving in the opposite direction to our client, turned right across Mr A’s path causing a collision.

Shoosmiths obtained an early admission of liability, an interim payment reimbursing Mr A for his loss of earnings and the private costs of future surgery that he would require.
