Road Traffic Accident Claims Case Studies

Lawford Kidd settle spinal injury claim following a road traffic accident for £4.5 million: Following a serious road traffic accident in the borders the client sustained a severe injury to his spinal cord meaning that he was wheelchair bound and required an extensive care regime for the rest of his life. Insurers for the driver after lengthy court proceedings finally accepted responsibility and a care regime was put in place covering 24 hour assistance and a new specially adapted house was built.

A serious road traffic accident in 2011 resulted in the Pursuer being paralysed from the chest down. A small interim payment has been made to enable the Pursuer to buy a house, while we pursue a court action in the Court of Session. The trial will take place in 2014, when our expert car accident injury solicitors will fight for the deserved compensation.

In a road traffic accident in 2006, our client (the Pursuer) sustained serious injury and sought compensation. The Defender is the local authority, on the basis that they failed to properly mark the carriageway or maintain the give way sign. This evidence had been accepted as correct. However, on presenting the case to the appeal court, it was rejected on the grounds of public policy, despite substantial interest. Damages have not yet been assessed, but our personal injury solicitors are continuing to fight for compensation for the injured party.

In an unusual road traffic accident case, we sought compensation for the Pursuer who suffered only minor physical injuries. Following the crash with a lorry in 2013, the Pursuer has suffered serious mental health issues, which have prevented her from returning to work. She developed a specific phobia and travel anxiety, for which she required psychological treatment. The case was settled shortly before trial, with the Pursuer being offered substantial compensation.
