Waterford Man Receives Three Million Sterling Compensation for Road Traffic Accident Injuries

by | Nov 26, 2009

A Waterford man has just made a settlement for £3m in compensation for road traffic accident injuries in an accident that cost the lives of two other people.

Owen Griffin, aged 26 and from Waterford, was asleep in the back of a vehicle that was involved in a head-on collision with a motorcycle in Scotland.  The claim was made against the driver of the car in which Owen Griffin was a seat-belted passenger.

The accident happened in March 2004 and resulted in a coma and brain injuries. Owen Griffen has been living in an assisted living home in Waterford since February 2007.

The settlement was made out of court prior to a High Court hearing in Belfast (the driver was from Omagh in County Tyrone).
