The Story about this Public Liability Claim

Our client, Wendy, was attempting to disembark from a boat moored at a marina when she slipped and fell, causing her to suffer a nasty fracture to her ankle and further injury to her lower back. Like many people injured in accidents, Wendy had no idea about her legal rights after, and so she contacted our firm to see if there was any way we could possibly assist her with the stressful situation that she had unexpectedly found herself in. When asked what led her to choosing our firm, Wendy advised us that it was due to a combination of our outstanding online reviews and testimonials, as well as our expertise in both public liability, and maritime law.

We later initiated legal proceedings on Wendy’s behalf and the claim was vigorously defended by the relevant insurance company. On a number of occasions, Wendy called our office in tears wondering if her case was worth the time and effort being put in by both her, and our office. We did our very best to ensure that we answered Wendys questions and concerns as promptly and informatively as possible. We took great care in ensuring that Wendy felt supported during the legal process and that her experience was as stress free as we could possibly make it. Throughout her claim, we hoped to put Wendy’s mind was at ease with the knowledge that we were advocating for her.  

When we first spoke with Wendy, she was only hoping to recover the out-of-pocket expenses that resulted from the accident. This included the costs of obtaining surgery on her ankle, the costs of cleaning services for her home when she was unable to do so herself, and the costs of further treatment for her injuries. After a lot of hard work, we were able to obtain an out of court settlement that not only compensated Wendy for all the money that she had already spent, but also assisted her with obtaining compensation for the pain and suffering that she had experienced. 

Wendy was overcome with emotion and extremely grateful for our efforts upon the resolution of her case. It was a far better result than what she was hoping for when she first came to us, and she said that she could now look forward to being able to move on with her life.

Here is what Wendy had to say about the services she was provided with by our firm:
