The family of a British holidaymaker killed in a road traffic accident abroad have been awarded a six figure settlement.
Slater and Gordon Lawyer: Kieran Mitchell is a travel and international litigation solicitor at Slater and Gordon Lawyers in London.
Settlement: €200,000
What Happened: We represent the family of a young man who was riding a quad bike abroad when a third party driver, who was speeding and over the drink drive limit, collided with him from behind.
Impact: Tragically, he died.
How Slater and Gordon Helped: We represented the family at the inquest and brought a civil claim on their behalf against the other driver’s insurers using our expertise in foreign law. Despite there being fault on both sides, we successfully agreed a settlement which represented some form of justice for our clients.
Decision: €200,000 settlement.
