Re: Could we have a legal opinion on what seems to be a horribly large amount of damages
Her husband was going to sue for loss of consortium but when the soliciter saw the missus, he pointed out that he would probably have to pay the restaurant for doing him a favor.
As to the amount of the award, it does not seem unreasonable. She has a life expectancy going in of 45 years. Not to be able to do the things you like or anything at all free of pain for 45 years for the pay of 26,666 pounds per year and that has to cover the cost of your care as well. Would you be willing to be thus afflicted for a like amount of money? I wouldn't.
