Six-Figure Settlement For Mother With Brain Injury After Bus Accident

Our client was seriously injured crossing the road. We secured vital rehabilitation and compensation.

The Accident

While walking to collect her children in Crawley, our client was struck by a double-decker bus at a zebra crossing.

With no memory of the event, we gathered critical evidence from police and third parties to establish the facts.

The case involved complex brain injuries and required a carefully coordinated rehabilitation and compensation strategy.

The Impact

Our client sustained a traumatic brain injury – including a subdural haematoma and subarachnoid bleeding – which affected her cognition, memory, and executive function.

The injury severely impacted her career. Previously in a demanding professional role, she struggled to return to work.

Our Approach

We acted quickly to gather crucial evidence, including CCTV footage, to establish liability in our client’s serious brain injury case.

Recognising the complexity of her needs, we secured early rehabilitation under the Rehab Code and appointed a specialist case manager.

Throughout, we focused on supporting her recovery and securing long-term financial stability, ultimately achieving a high six-figure settlement that reflected the significant impact on her career and future earnings.

The Resolution

We obtained key evidence, including CCTV footage through a Court application, leading to an admission of liability with a minor deduction for contributory negligence.

The settlement reflected a substantial future loss of earnings and concluded with a high six-figure award.
