What’s My Claim Worth successfully secured £25,000 in compensation for our client after she was seriously injured in a devastating road traffic accident that also claimed the life of her husband.
The collision left our client dealing not only with painful physical injuries, but also the emotional trauma of losing a loved one in tragic circumstances.
The Circumstances of the Collision
Our client was travelling as a front-seat passenger when the vehicle left its course and entered the path of an oncoming car. The impact caused the vehicle to roll repeatedly before eventually overturning.
Emergency services attended the scene and, due to the seriousness of her injuries, our client was transported to hospital by air ambulance for urgent treatment.
Sadly, her husband, who had been driving the vehicle, lost his life as a result of the collision.
Injuries and Ongoing Symptoms
Following the accident, our client was diagnosed with a fractured rib together with injuries to her chest, abdomen, neck, and back. She also suffered concussion and continued to experience pain and discomfort during her recovery.
In addition to the physical injuries, the psychological impact of the accident was significant. Our client experienced anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and ongoing emotional distress, particularly when travelling in vehicles after the collision.
