In July 2024, our client, a pedestrian, was severely injured in a road traffic accident. While returning to her vehicle in a car park, she was struck by a campervan, which then drove over her legs, trapping them underneath. The collision resulted in significant soft tissue damage, multiple fractures to her right leg and ankle, and required surgical intervention to insert stabilizing metalwork.
Liability was promptly admitted by the driver’s insurance company. They funded an initial triage assessment, which recommended a course of physiotherapy. Our client completed eight sessions, also funded by the insurer, and made substantial progress. The physiotherapy team concluded that she was expected to achieve a full recovery with minimal long-term limitations.
Despite the absence of complete medical evidence, the insurer made an early settlement offer based on the positive prognosis and initial medical reports. After thorough discussion of the offer’s merits and potential outcomes, our client decided to accept it. This decision allowed her to conclude the legal proceedings quickly, avoid prolonged litigation, and concentrate fully on her rehabilitation. We determined that pursuing further action was unlikely to yield a significantly higher compensation award.
Upon the case’s conclusion, our client expressed her satisfaction, stating:
Kieran Grainger has been looking after my case since an accident in July 2024. From the first day he was so good at keeping me informed as to everything that was happening. He returned phone calls very promptly and was always professional in his responses. My compensation was sorted very quickly and I would highly recommend Enable Law for their services.
