A major firm rejected her claim, but we secured a substantial disability settlement 

Rebecca

Rebecca was admitted to hospital with an infection that eventually left her paraplegic. A national law firm told her she didn’t have a claim. We took on Rebecca’s case and secured her a substantial settlement.

Rebecca had suffered from severe asthma and anorexia for many years. This meant the infection developed into a pulmonary embolism and neuropathy in her lower limbs. She required extensive hospitalisation. Rebecca was confined to a wheelchair by the time she was discharged.

Her feet now turn in at right angles at her ankles. In the future, she may require amputation. The first firm she approach investigated for two years before rejecting her claim. This meant her limitation period was about to expire. We took on her claim nonetheless.

We built Rebecca’s claim with the help of several medical experts. They produced reports on the nature and extent of Rebecca’s injuries and disabilities.

The matter was settled during mediation for $4.5 million.

Had Rebecca accepted the advice of her former solicitors, she would have received no compensation. The settlement allows Rebecca comfort and support for the remainder of her life.
