Kayleigh approached Farleys’ personal injury team about the possibility of making a claim for compensation after she was injured in an accident at a supermarket.
Background
Kayleigh was shopping in a well-known supermarket in Great Harwood, Lancashire.
After paying at the till, she turned and slipped on wet floor. She fell forwards onto her hands and knees. Kayleigh attended her local hospital where she was diagnosed with a fractured wrist. Her wrist was put into a back slab and she was given a splint to wear for six weeks. During this time, she also underwent hand therapy.
How Farleys were able to help
Kayleigh instructed Jade Jump of Farleys’ personal injury team to assess the extent of Kayleigh’s injuries and any future treatment she may need. The experts gave a prognosis of 18 months to full recovery. Kayleigh was keen to settle her claim within this timeframe so Jade ensured a quick turnaround of just nine months post-accident and a satisfactory settlement of £5,000 damages.
Jade Jump commented,
These types of claims can sometimes take a lot longer due to disputes over liability so I’m delighted we managed to settle within nine months and achieve a great settlement for Kayleigh. We wish her all the best in her recovery and hope these damages can go some way to providing closure on her experience.
Kayleigh added,
“I found Jade to be very helpful. She communicated everything with me quickly and was always very informative of everything.”
