Liability Risk and Insurance
Spine damage after road accident
A man who suffered damage to his spine when the car he was driving was hit from the rear has been successful in his bid to
secure compensation. He was awarded a payout of £50,000 under the terms of an out-of-court settlement. After the accident,
he began to suffer from pins and needles in his arm and he was diagnosed with a trapped nerve in his spine which had been
caused by the car crash. Since the incident, he has not been able to return to his job as a fitter.
