London crash victim seeks major PI compensation
A Londoner whose face was severely damaged after a road traffic
accident in a black cab has launched a claim for more than £300,000
in personal injury compensation.
In February 2010, John Falk was travelling through London's
wealthy Mayfair borough when the taxi he was travelling in collided
with a central reservation. As a result of the impact, Mr Falk
required "major reconstructive surgery" on his face, the Evening
Standard reported this week.
Mr Falk's injuries to his face were extensive, including the
loss of 70% of vision in his left eye, a fractured nose and broken
teeth while emergency surgery was needed to relieve pressure on his
head immediately after the collision.
His legal representatives argue the medical attention needed in
the aftermath of the crash has cost Mr Falk "tens of thousands" in
healthcare treatment. As a result, he is now suing Michael
Glassman, Director of Colts Cabs, for £300,000 in compensation.
The case continues.
