More Personal Accident Claims
PSR Solicitors in Ellesmere Port recently secured over £2,500 for a schoolboy who injured his knee and elbow following a slip in an unlit, wet school sports hall.
We were instructed by the parents of a 14-year-old boy who suffered an injury at school. The Client was taking part in a PE lesson and he was instructed by the teacher to go into the sports hall, so he and other pupils ran into the hall. The lights in the hall were switched off, so it was dark and, unbeknown to the client, the floor had recently been mopped, so it was wet. Our client slipped on the wet floor and fell and suffered an injury.
We were instructed in early April 2109 and we submitted full details of the accident claim to the school’s insurance company. Within two months we had secured a full admission of liability, so we instructed a medical expert to prepare a report on the client’s injuries.
The doctor examined our Client and diagnosed a sprain/strain type injury to his left knee and left elbow. The pain to his left elbow resolved in about a week or so; however, the pain in the client’s knee continued for three months. He went to the hospital and his GP and he took pain killers for several weeks. He was unable to take part in his usual sporting hobbies for around six weeks. Thankfully his symptoms fully resolved without any complications.
Once we received the medical report we entered into negotiations with the defendant’s insurers. Including the parents’ travelling expenses, we were seeking compensation of £2,610, but the insurers were offering a maximum of £2,350. After some negotiation, we eventually reached a compromise at £2,580. As the client was under 18, any settlement agreed between the parties required the Court’s approval. We made an application to the Court which resulted in a short hearing, where the judge agreed that the compensation was appropriate. The parents’ travelling expenses were paid to them, while the sum in respect of the client’s injuries was invested until he reaches 18, at which point he will receive it.

A 56-year-old cyclist from Birmingham has successfully secured £30,000 in compensation following a serious road traffic collision that left him with long-term injuries. The client, Mr M, contacted PSR Solicitors shortly after the accident for expert legal guidance, and our personal injury team worked diligently to ensure his injuries were properly recognised and his financial losses fully recovered.
On 12th February 2023, around 6:30pm, Mr M was cycling along the A38 Bristol Road — a busy thoroughfare in Birmingham — when he approached a T-junction. As he continued with right of way, a vehicle emerging from the side road failed to stop. The driver, in clear breach of the Highway Code, pulled out directly into Mr M's path, causing a sudden and forceful collision.
The impact was significant. Mr M had no opportunity to avoid the crash. He was thrown from his e-bike, suffering serious injuries as a result. Witness accounts and the road layout confirmed that the other driver had failed to give way, and was entirely at fault for the accident.
The collision left Mr M with a series of painful and debilitating injuries. These included trauma to his right foot and thigh, damage to his left leg and ankle, and injuries to his right shoulder and upper arm. Most significantly, he developed deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a condition medically determined to be caused by the accident and one that he will live with permanently. This led to long-term changes in his health and lifestyle.
Medical experts determined that the DVT was not only a direct result of the accident, but would also have permanent implications for Mr M's health. He would now require long-term management of the condition, including daily medication and the use of compression stocking, both of which imposed new financial and lifestyle burdens.
Mr M reached out to PSR Solicitors through our online enquiry form shortly after the incident. From the outset, we prioritised a comprehensive approach, ensuring that both the immediate injuries and the emerging long-term medical issues were properly documented.
Initially, the claim was submitted via the Rapid Claims Portal under the Pre-Action Protocol for low-value personal injury claims. Liability was admitted at an early stage by the defendant, which allowed us to focus on establishing the full extent of the injuries and building a robust claim.
As the complexity of Mr M’s condition became clearer, our legal team obtained four expert medical reports. These included opinions from an orthopaedic surgeon and a vascular specialist with experience in DVT cases. The medical evidence was essential in proving that the DVT was caused by the collision and would lead to long-term health implications.
In addition to the medical documentation, we gathered full evidence of financial losses, including:
To ensure that the claim was appropriately valued, we also sought written advice on quantum from a barrister. Their opinion confirmed that the defendant’s initial offers underestimated the true value of the claim.
As the value of the claim exceeded £25,000, the matter was removed from the portal and managed under the standard litigation track. Early settlement negotiations began in April 2025, but the defendant’s initial offer of £21,000 did not reflect the full extent of Mr M’s suffering or long-term care needs.
Following continued negotiations and detailed submissions from our legal team, the defendant eventually agreed to settle the claim for £30,000 in August 2025. This sum included general damages for pain and suffering, as well as special damages to cover Mr M’s long-term medical costs and financial losses.
The compensation Mr M received has enabled him to replace his e-bike and recover losses for his past and future medical needs, including the cost of daily medication and compression therapy.
Mr M has described the settlement as providing both closure and peace of mind. The funds have also helped alleviate the anxiety caused by the sudden and permanent changes to his health and lifestyle.
“While the facts of the collision were straightforward, proving the causation between the accident and the subsequent development of deep vein thrombosis required a detailed and medically-informed approach. We were able to demonstrate the link clearly through expert evidence and secure a settlement that properly reflected the long-term nature of the injury. This case is a strong example of how thorough legal and medical handling can make all the difference.”
Mr M provided heartfelt thanks following the successful conclusion of the case. He expressed particular appreciation for the clear advice, regular updates, and supportive communication he received throughout the process. His feedback is a reflection of our commitment to client care and to achieving the best possible outcome in every case we take on.
