Re: Magnum ice skates is it worth a claim!
Sorry but it's not guaranteed they will take your case on, they took almost 3 months to tell me that there was a less than 50/50 chance of winning my case so would not take it further, I felt cheated to say the least.Stormproof wrote:Just received a load of paperwork from Simpson Millar, just forms/contract to sign, does that mean they are taking my case? as it does'nt say either way.
Hope you have better luck.

Had another appointment at the hospital today was given Lidocaine & steroid injections it was also recommended that I buy a Tens machine for my leg. Whats the chances that RM will pay for that as its £35 and I can't afford it? I take it'll be a big fat NO 
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet

I find that a £10 bottle of vodka works just as well as any pain killer deviceStormproof wrote:Had another appointment at the hospital today was given Lidocaine & steroid injections it was also recommended that I buy a Tens machine for my leg.
