The Road Accident Fund (RAF) was recently put to the test by leading law firm, de Broglio Attorneys, in a legal battle that resulted in the law firm winning R4,003,526.00 for their client, a seriously injured passenger. de Broglio Attorneys have over 25 years of experience in suing the RAF and like in any battle, this winning law firm has perfected their game plan ensuring that they continue to win. They have built up a solid wealth of knowledge and expertise in what to do, how to do it, and when to do so, in order to maximize the settlement figure they secure for their clients.
In this recent case, a road accident left Dhiren Naidoo* severely injured. He was a passenger when the accident happened but he has no recollection of what happened. He was since informed that the driver of his vehicle lost control, veered off the road, and rolled. He was thrown from the car and suffered a head injury and permanent, disfigurement injuries to his right hand.
Dhiren needed help with a claim against the RAF. He chose de Broglio Attorneys to represent him in his case, “I was living in Johannesburg at the time, one of my family members saw the de Broglio advert on DSTV, and another friend of mine told me I should go with you guys, so my aunt arranged everything for me.”
“The service I got from de Broglio was excellent. Whenever we needed information, they gave us what we needed, we got good feedback,” Dhiren reported on the client service he received from de Broglio Attorneys, “It’s been a long process, the case has been going on for about 6 years. It’s been a long journey with many appointments.”
de Broglio Attorneys settled his claim in the North Gauteng High Court for the staggering amount of R4,003,526.00. “The advocate explained everything to us, I was very happy with the settlement,” an overjoyed Dhiren explained.
Looking towards the future, Dhiren painted a portrait of hope, “First things first, I am going to sort out my medical aid, sort out my debts that have arisen because of the accident, and I want to secure myself and improve my life. I’m looking forwards and upwards.”
