Steven Gilliland £225,000 client settlement

JMK Solicitors is delighted to announce a significant settlement, successfully securing £225,000 in compensation for a client who suffered severe injuries following a road traffic accident.

Securing Compensation for the client after serious car accident injuries

The client’s life was significantly impacted by the traumatic accident. Her injuries were serious and complex, requiring immediate and extensive medical treatment. Our dedicated legal team worked tirelessly to ensure all aspects of her suffering were accounted for in the claim.

The injuries sustained included:

  • Severe Left Elbow Fracture: This serious injury required surgery where plates and screws were inserted, resulting in significant scarring (an 18cm scar).
  • Spinal Fracture: A painful wedge fracture of her T12 vertebrae.
  • Psychological Trauma: The incident caused significant mental distress, leading to an adjustment disorder and Phobic Anxiety Disorder, which required intensive Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).

Expert Negotiation Leads to Outstanding Compensation

Despite the complexity of the injuries and the long-term impact on the client’s life, Steven Gilliland, Legal Services Associate Director at  JMK Solicitors navigated the legal process with expertise and commitment.

Following robust negotiations with the opposing party, our team secured a highly favourable offer. The client was absolutely delighted to accept the final settlement sum of £225,000.00.

Committed to Our Clients

This substantial compensation figure reflects the severity of the client’s physical and psychological injuries and will provide the financial security needed for her ongoing recovery, rehabilitation, and future support.

This success story is a testament to the dedication of Steven and the team at JMK Solicitors in achieving the best possible results for our clients and helping them move forward with their lives after a serious accident.

Steven Gilliland commented, “We are so pleased to have secured this life-changing sum for our client. While no amount of money can undo the trauma, this settlement ensures she has the financial means to access the care and support she needs for a brighter future.”
