Mr Mackie received surgery and treatment and was kept in hospital for nearly three months. As a result, Mr Mackie claims that the accident has changed his life, that he now fears driving, and that his days in the garden are now at a premium. As such Mr Mackie has recently won compensation totalling around £115,000 for his injuries and other losses resulting from the accident.
Road traffic accidents are unfortunately a part of everyday life in the modern world we live in. Whether they are major or minor, people can sustain all sorts of injuries in road traffic accidents. Where the accident occurs through no fault of your own, or even if you are partly to blame, it is likely that you may be able to make a claim for compensation. It is important then that you seek expert advice from a personal injury lawyer with experience of dealing with road traffic accident claims.
The amount of compensation you receive will depend on the severity of your injuries and your subsequent losses; for example any loss of earning resulting from time off work that you have been forced to have due to the seriousness of your injuries. It is unlikely that most people who have been involved in a road traffic accident will be awarded compensation on the same par as Mr Mackie or anywhere near that figure unless you suffer similar serious injuries; but this is not to say you are not entitled to some compensation. At The Injury Lawyers our professional lawyers do everything they can to ensure that you always receive the maximum compensation you deserve.
Our legal advice is free, so you have nothing to lose in seeking our advice. What’s more, The Injury Lawyers always make sure you keep 100% of any compensation you obtain.
