Miss A’s Story

Road Traffic Accident

Farley Dwek Solicitors represented Miss A. who was involved in a nasty road traffic accident in a built up residential area near her home.

She was a rear seat passenger with her newborn baby. Her stationary car had pulled out of a parking space and was waiting for a car in the distance, approaching from the opposite direction, to pass by.

However, the other driver was clearly not paying attention and drove at speed, straight into Miss A’s car. The other driver made no attempt to brake, swerve or avoid the collision. They had simply failed to see Miss A’s car ahead. It was alleged the driver was distracted using his phone whilst driving. Miss A was not expecting the impact. The force of the collision took the near side wheel clean off Miss A’s car.

As as a result, Miss A suffered significant injury to her neck and intense headaches together with trauma, shock and anxiety which necessitated both physiotherapy and psychological treatment.

The third party insurers denied liability, blaming Miss A’s driver for causing an obstruction – even though the gap left by her stationary car was large enough for the third party to pass by safely had the driver been paying attention and going at a slower speed more suitable for the road. When the other party refused to make any offers to settle Miss A’s claim, it became necessary to issue court proceedings to advance her claim.

Miss A. successfully recovered over £10,000 for her physical and psychological injuries.

If a relative of yours is going into a care home or nursing home, I’d 100% recommend you to call Farley Dwek to see if you are eligible for NHS Continuing Healthcare Funding.

We would thoroughly recommend Farley Dwek as an organisation and Debbie Payton in particular. We feel that all that she has achieved on behalf of my father is worth every penny and we believe we could not have got this outcome without her. We cannot thank Debbie enough.

Without Farley Dwek’s support we wouldn’t have secured the funding. Soon after we presented our case with Farley Dwek we were informed by the NHS that my mother was entitled to the funding after all. It was a huge relief because the size of the care home fees can be a huge worry.

We felt more confident going into the review process with Farley Dwek on our side. After they attended the assessment meeting with us we secured the funding and we continue to save on the astronomical care home fees that we might otherwise have had to pay.

You don’t need any more worry about how to come up with the money at a time when you are trying to cope with the emotion and distress of trying to get the best care possible for loved ones. This needs sorting out and I’m glad Farley Dwek is on my side and helping through the process.
