    Sheffield Motorcyclist receives 7 figure sum after losing leg at unofficial car meet

    A 22-year-old motorcyclist from Sheffield tragically lost his leg after being struck by a speeding car at an unofficial car meet. The incident occurred  in front of numerous onlookers who witnessed the high-speed collision. 

    Following the accident, the motorcyclist sought legal representation from  prominent local major trauma lawyer, Richard Meggitt. As a result of a claim against the driver’s motor insurance, the victim received a substantial settlement, which covered compensation for the injury, lost earnings, and the future costs of prosthetic care. Additionally, the insurance company provided vital support for the motorcyclist’s recovery, including access to free rehabilitation services. 

    Criminal proceedings are currently underway in Sheffield Crown Court, where the driver faces charges related to the accident.
