Eyes On The Road

Keep your eyes on the road – good advice, especially when you are driving. It certainly would have been good advice for the driver of the car that ran straight into the back of Mr B and Miss I’s car whilst they were stationary in traffic. After we put their claims the insurer of the […]

A Grave Trip

Mr P was walking through his local church yard when he tripped and fell over the raised edge of a very large stone slab set in the footpath. As a result he was injured. After Mr P consulted us we set about investigating his claim and discovered that the local council had taken over responsibility […]

Hot Soup
