Life Changing Compensation for Brain Injury Victim
A 22-year old woman, whose life was permanently altered after a severe road traffic accident, has been awarded £3 million in personal injury compensation.
In January 2004, Vicki Hart was struck by a taxi which resulted in a multitude of life threatening injuries, including fractures to her neck and skull as well as a blood clot in her head. The injuries were so severe that at the time doctors considered her chances of survival to be slim. Ultimately Miss Hart survived, but she now requires round-the-clock care for her disabilities.
Her family initiated a personal injury claim against the taxi driver. During the trial at the High Court in London, Mr Justice Spencer indicated he had “no hesitation” in granting Miss Hart an award for damages that should “cover her care costs for life”.
Commenting on the award, Paul Kirby of Anglian Injury Lawyers said: “Eight years ago a near fatal brain injury had life changing consequences for a young woman. This compensation, after such an agonisingly long wait, can at last give her and her family some hope for the future”.
Whilst this is an extreme example of a claim for injury, Norfolk injury solicitors, AIL, deal with all injuries.
