Carole from Milton Keynes
In 1995 Carole was walking home after finishing work at The Suffolk Punch. It was after midnight and she was dressed in black. Instead of using the underpass, she decided to walk across a dual carriageway and regrettably she was struck by a car and left with devastating injuries.
The driver's insurers rejected her claim and offered her a token gesture of £25,000. With Martin Keeling's guidance, the problems with liability were dealt with and a difficult claim was eventually settled for over £550,000. Carole still carries the physical and mental scars but says "I could easily have accepted that the accident was my fault but Martin helped me make the right decisions and I have now been able to adapt my house to meet my needs and have the care and support I need".
