Shauna
Serious Injury
Shauna was in a car accident that lead to, among other injuries, a spinal fracture and incomplete L4/5 spinal cord injury - which means she has no feeling below her knees. While Shauna was still in hospital, her mum contacted us to help Shauna make a legal claim. Her solicitor, Laura Mcilduff has supported her from the beginning. Laura said, “We secured an interim payment almost immediately and funding for private rehabilitation specialists. Shauna’s rehab team were able to liaise with her NHS treating team to prepare for her discharge from hospital, ensuring she had access to the aids, equipment and rehabilitation she needed at home to maximise her recovery and quality of life.”
