Successful Personal Injury Claims

Below you will find just a small selection of personal injury claims which Louise has dealt with from the Cardiff Office.

Permanent Mobility Problems

In this case our client was at work when he fell from a height of some 10 feet and suffered a serious personal injury to his foot.

The injury meant that he had permanent mobility problems and he was unable to return to the job he was doing at the time of the accident.

Louise recovered compensation for him not only for the personal injury but also for lost earnings while he was recovering and in the future.

Injury to Cyclist

Our client in this case was a cyclist travelling to work.  He was hit by a motor vehicle and suffered a brain injury as well as multiple personal injuries to his limbs.

He now requires round the clock care and is unlikely to ever be able to work again.

Louise recovered a substantial amount of damages in this case to provide for the client's future care which also took into account his loss of future income.

Fell from height

In this case our client was at work and was asked to do a job which he hadn't done before.  He had received no training for the job and fell from a considerable height.

He suffered head injuries and brain injuries as well as several fractured ribs and damage to his eyes.

Louise and her team were successful in recovering compensation for the client which included a payment for lost earnings and care.
