James Paterson secures finding of fundamental dishonesty for Defendant insurer in a remote trial.

Representing the Defendant in a personal injury claim arising out of a minor road traffic accident. In a remote trial heard by CVP before HHJ Coe the claim was found to be fundamentally dishonest as the accident was not capable of causing injury and the Claimant had tried to attribute pre-existing symptoms to the accident ‘in hope of additional monies’.
