Shaw & Co Solicitors Personal Injury Experts For Over 25 Years
A very busy start to the year with settlement of cases to include:
Road traffic accident – our client was a pedestrian who was struck by a negligent car driver and was thrown onto the windscreen of the car as a result of the impact suffering a head injury and it was important for the medical expert to determine whether that impact might cause future problems – but having undergone a thorough examination and assessment we were able to negotiate settlement of the claim and secure our client their compensation
Medical treatment claim – this was a treatment delay case where our client was diagnosed with a blood clotting issue but then had to suffer several months of pain and discomfort before they were given the correct drug therapy for the diagnosed condition
Work accident claim – our client was working as a delivery driver and had to load and unload his van throughout the working the day and was injured when he caught his leg on a broken latch on the rear door of the wagon which had a jagged edge and caused cut that required hospital treatment for stitches and cleaning – the accident should have been avoided by a simple repair
Holiday accident claim – our client had booked a deal with a tour operator and was staying at Hotel in a Mediterranean resort when she tripped and fell due to a badly maintained roadway at the main gate – she suffered a severe injury to her hand which required emergency surgery at the resort and although the holiday operator disputed liability we were able to negotiate settlement of the case
