I went to A&E because my knee swelled up the size of a grapefruit. It is now in a splint.
I will be contacting one of the solicitors mentioned earlier in this thread. Thanks.
A mate had an off last Friday, he was OK, he rang his wife to come and pick him up, but to be sure he went to A&E to get checked out,he came home yesterday complete with a new hip ! the doctors were amazed that he walked in, but that is the reason he needed a complete new hip he had made the break worse by walking on it.
I have used Slater & Gordon and was happy with their service, I asked for the bike and clothing claim to be settled separate to the medical claim which they did very quickly and to my satisfaction, the medical claim was just short of 2 years before it was settled, again to my satisfaction, but I know some people have not been happy with S&G and note from post above someone says they may be in trouble so a bit of research may be in order if you decide to go with them.
I used them as a member of Cycling UK and my accident was completely the car drivers fault ( he was prosecuted for driving without due care and attention) so straight forward, I was dealt with by the Sheffield branch, my only complaint was lack of updates I had to keep asking what was happening.
