Last week I completed a settlement for a paraplegic client in the home counties which we were all delighted with. The claim settled for £1.95 million pounds but far more importantly the client had moved into fully adapted ground floor accommodation that was not ‘disabled looking’ but a FAMILY home for her and all her children – FOR LIFE. Keeping that continuity was essential to my client and feeling ‘normal’ was paramount – as it should be. She was a fun loving person pre spinal cord injury and with the right financial package and emotional support she is the same crazy, busy mum she always has been!
Although this lady has been a client a friendship has built up between me and the family due to the nature of the relationship and the case which no doubt shall remain strong for many, many years – indeed I very much hope that is the case.
