£3,800 for Bus Passenger Injury Claims

Successful Bus Passenger Injury Compensation Claim

We were instructed by Miss R, who was a passenger on a bus when she suffered injuries.

The client’s usual bus stop had been closed due to construction work, so she stood up to ask the driver if he could pull over before the next stop. As she was standing, the driver braked sharply, causing the client to stumble and fall against the luggage rack.

Sometimes bus drivers need to brake suddenly, such as to avoid causing injury to someone who has run into the road or to avoid a collision with another vehicle.  However, on this occasion there was no such good reason and the driver knew our client was standing up so she would be at risk of injury if there was a sudden movement.

Sometimes people fall and suffer injury as the bus pulls away before they have had a chance to sit down, but this in itself would not necessarily give rise to grounds for a claim; the driver would need to realise that the passenger was particularly vulnerable to that happening.

The chances of a bus claim succeeding are very fact specific; if you have suffered an injury you should contact us to discuss the precise circumstances so we can weigh them up and advise you accordingly.

As a result of the accident, our client suffered injuries to her neck, ankle and leg, as well as headaches and anxiety, plus some modest financial losses.

We obtained a report from a suitable medical expert and we valued her claim at around £2,500 to £3,000. We entered into negotiations with the bus company’s insurer and were able to reach a settlement of £3,810, which exceeded the client’s expectations.

£3,400 Compensation for Client who slipped on flowers in Asda Wrexham

PSR Solicitors of Wrexham have successfully obtained £3,400 in personal injury compensation for a client who was injured as a result of an accident in an Asda store.

The circumstances of the accident were that our client attended the Asda store and was walking towards the checkout when she slipped and fell due to flowers which were on the floor. As a result of the fall, our client sustained an injury to her arm, knee and head.

Upon accepting the case we alleged negligence on the part of Asda. Various allegations were made but most importantly that the defendant had failed to ensure the safety of our client whilst she was a visitor in their store in breach of section 2 of the Occupier’s Liability Act.

Liability was admitted by Asda and following the admission, we obtained medical evidence for our client and obtained a favourable injury compensation settlement on their behalf.
