Our client was driving within the speed limit along a familiar country lane in the afternoon. Suddenly another car failed to give way at a junction and collided with our client’s car.
Lawson-West began a personal injury claim. The road traffic accident was the other driver’s fault because he:-
- drove too fast;
- failed to keep a proper look out;
- failed to give way at a junction;
- failed to notice our client’s car;
- failed to stop, slow down or control his car to avoid the collision;
- breached the Road Traffic Act 1988 and the Highway Code.
Our client attended the local hospital after the accident as she suffered from whiplash to her neck and back along with bruising on her arm and hip, headaches and anxiety.
Lawson-West recovered compensation in respect of our client’s whiplash injuries and for expenses incurred as a result of the accident. Our client approached Lawson-West a month before her limitation period was due to expire and within a period of five months, Lawson-West managed to issue court proceedings, obtain medical evidence and negotiate a settlement before court proceedings were due to be served. This reflects the timely fashion that this case was dealt with and the fact that, even with a month before limitation was due to expire, it was a case that Lawson West was able to deal with.
