£850,000 injury settlement for pedestrian following a road traffic collision

Michael Wangermann, a personal injury specialist at Ashtons Legal, has obtained a substantial injury settlement for Mrs T, an elderly client who was left immobile after she was run over by a car.

Mrs T suffered multiple significant injuries and spent months in hospital. On leaving the hospital she was unable to be supported properly in her own home and had to be moved into a care home.

To add insult to injury, the car driver’s insurers disputed who was to blame and Court proceedings had to be issued to resolve this.  Having succeeded in doing so in Mrs T’s favour, Ashtons negotiated a settlement of £850,000 which was then approved by the Court.

Michael Wangermann commented: ‘Mrs T expressed a clear desire throughout to be able to live, once again, outside a care home environment and to try to restore some semblance of normality to her life. This injury settlement allows her to achieve that goal.’
