Samantha Hayward, an Assistant Solicitor at Blackhurst Budd has successfully settled a road traffic accident matter in which our client was awarded £50,000 in compensation.

Our client, Mr W, was involved in a motorbike road traffic accident in Blackpool. His motorbike was hit by a white van driver, throwing him from his bike which resulted breaking his tibia and fibula (the bones in the lower leg).

As a result he required surgery followed by extensive rehabilitation. Samantha instructed an orthopaedic surgeon to provide expert advice on the long term prognosis.

Samantha commented:

“This was a serious accident causing considerable injury and suffering and this is reflected in the value of the settlement. Motorbike accident claims require specialist advice to order to negotiate the maximum level of compensation.”

If you’ve been injured in any type of road traffic accident please call 01253 629300 and ask for Samantha.
