Vilma’s Story
About Vilma’s claim
After a shopping centre accident left Vilma with a fractured hip, LHD helped her seek accountability and move forward.
Vilma had always lived an active life, spending her time travelling and caring for her home and garden. Just after Christmas, a routine shopping trip took a devastating turn when she was struck by multiple trolleys and knocked to the ground, suffering a fractured hip.
The injury changed her life overnight. Unsure of what to do next, Vilma contacted LHD Lawyers and spoke with Stephen, who reassured her from the outset and took the time to understand her as a person, not just her injury.
It was never about the money. It was accountability on their behalf. And once it was settled, it was a big sigh of relief as I could move on with my life.
When someone comes into your home and reassures you, just you look after yourself. And we’ll do the rest. That was priceless
With LHD handling the claim, Vilma was able to focus on her recovery while accountability was pursued on her behalf. Once the matter was resolved, she felt a sense of relief and was able to move forward with her life.
