In 2021, our client was injured in a car accident and, like many people in similar situations, turned to a solicitor for help. Unfortunately, the solicitor she initially instructed did not obtain thorough medical evidence and advised her to accept a settlement of just £6,000 – a figure that significantly undervalued the impact of her injuries.

Trusting her instincts, she declined the offer and began to look elsewhere for the legal support she needed. That’s when she found NV Legal. We were able to step in at a crucial stage and quickly arranged for detailed and independent medical assessments to properly assess the extent of her injuries.

With the right evidence in place, the defendant significantly increased their offer to £25,000. We continued to negotiate, determined to achieve the best possible outcome for our client, and the case has now successfully settled for £30,000 – five times the original amount she was advised to accept.

This case highlights a vital point: not all solicitors take the time or care to fight for the compensation their clients deserve. We pride ourselves on doing things differently. We don’t cut corners, and we don’t encourage early settlements unless they reflect the full value of your claim.

If you’ve been injured in a car accident and are unsure whether your solicitor is working in your best interest, or if you’ve been told to settle for less than you believe your case is worth, get in touch. We’re here to help you get the compensation you deserve.
