One Saturday, whilst enjoying a game of football Mr Smith was subject to what can only be described as an horrific tackle. This tackle was so bad it broke his leg in 2 places, ended his football season and bought an early end to his football career. He contacted Thompsons to seek help as he’d lost wages, incurred additional expenses in treatment and was terrified at what lay ahead in terms of earning power. Thompsons assessed his case and negotiated with the insurers of Cambuslang Rangers to secure a compensation settlement in the sum of £40,000 – enough to offer financial security in the short term and allow him to assess how he takes his life forward.
