Stephensons’ personal injury specialists recently settled a case for a client who had sustained injury due to tripping over a pothole in a supermarket car park.

She also underwent 4 sessions of physiotherapy.
After Stephensons proceeded with the case against the supermarket, the case was settled and Ms Brady received £4,500 in compensation.
