Compensation has been obtained for a motorcyclist who suffered life-changing injuries when he was hit by a truck.
The driver of the truck merged into his lane without warning and collided with his motorbike. He suffered multiple broken bones and had to undergo a number of operations. He also experienced chronic pain and psychological injures.
Although he was able to return to his job as a welder, his injuries have affected his ability to work and he is likely have to retire early. It is anticipated that he will need further surgery in the future.
He sought legal advice and commenced a personal injury claim. Medical evidence was obtained to establish the extent of his injuries and the likely impact they will have on his life going forward. His claim was settled for £450,000, which will help to pay for his ongoing treatment and rehabilitation needs.
