Received my cheque yesterday 😀
Decided to take the 50% offer. The insurance company wanted to deal with my original solicitor so went with that as well.
Thing is, I could not get a new solicitor to take the case before so I would not be able to get one to help me push for 100%. The offer was fair as there wasn’t a real witness to the accident. Also, did not want to push them too far as they might take the 50% offer back.
Last year, the insurance company valued my claim at X but said they would not payout due to disputed liability.
My solicitor wanted to value my claim at X but I pushed them to ask for more so they upped it to X + 20%.
Insurance company agreed so I got 50% of X + 20%
I recently bought myself a new bike on the promise of a good result and the payout covers 75% of it 🙂
