Settlement of £9,000 for man injured by car

A man injured when hit by a car while helping to break up a fight outside a pub has received a settlement of £9,000. The defendant had reversed his vehicle with the door open, hitting and dragging the claimant and causing multiple injuries, including soft tissue injuries to his lower back, ankle, foot and shoulder. It was only when his injuries had still not resolved, a full 14 months after the incident had taken place, that he made a claim, which was eventually settled out of court.
