Hi all,
My dad was broughed sided by a women at the weekend, his right of way she was looking for a parking space and "didn't see him", so his pearl white Goldwing with may I add lots of lights everywhere is now buggered, he has fractured ribs, dodgy hip, whip lash in the neck and back, his foot is hurting and his chin was deeply cut (pic below) he's a professional heavy goods driver and has been told not to drive or ride for min 2 weeks, so loss of earnings as well.
Now I want to know can he appoint a solicistor of his choosing and the legal cover pay the fees or does he have to use the insurance appointed one, because he was knocked off 2 years ago by a taxi and was appointed a solicitor by the insurance company and it worked out as the taxi was insured by the same people they were claiming damages off each other so he gor peanuts.
