A claim for a Spanish man who sustained multiple life changing injuries in a horrific road accident. Although able to work it was clear that the Claimant’s future employment options and income would be curtailed by his injuries. Medical experts in 12 different specialisms were involved. The claim settled when the Defendant accepted the Claimant’s offer of £1 million the day before trial.
£650,000 recovered for a manual worker who sustained a broken ankle after slipping on ice. The young man was left with a limp and reduced standing capacity.
Sophie has run a number of cases involving vehicular trespass including the frequently cited Flint v Tittensor and the MIB [2015] EWHC 466 (QB).
