Sudden Wealthflow

Medical Negligence Awards

Sudden wealth from settlement of a legal action is rarely a joyous windfall.

It will probably have taken years of legal battling to secure a settlement. Once you have that settlement you will want to go on with your life and having professional help with money will ease the transition.

Case Study:

John and Shirley
Recipients of Medical Negligence Insurance Settlement
London 2008

John and Shirley's daughter, Olivia, was born prematurely and suffered brain damage after her birth.

Before receiving a financial settlement, John and Shirley endured an extensive inquiry process. The inquiry found there had been medical negligence and that a problem with the hospital’s ventilator had caused the brain damage.

When the inquiry was over they just wanted to get back to their family life but getting on with life wasn’t completely straight-forward. As well as being committed to caring for Olivia, John and Shirley also had to take time to make far-reaching investment decisions.

 "We discovered that money decisions don't act in isolation, they are closely bound with family emotions."
