  Just to update this thread: My Mum has gone with Leigh-Day now and the claim is proceeding. I will keep updating this thread for the benefit of anyone who's interested and well, cos you peeps have been really helpful and if this case can in any way benefit anyone else in future it'd be worth it...cheers all.

  Appreciate your good wishes CheeseWheel and another tick in the box for Leigh Day who we're expecting a call from after I contacted them and asked for a callback earlier today.

  My mum spoke to someone from cams earlier and she came off the phone feeling quite positive about them but after what you've said PhilDAS about the fact that you're still waiting 2 years down the line for Armstrongs to pull their finger out is somewhat dispiriting but thankyou for mentioning it as we were seriously considering proceeding with them. Not so sure now tbh.

  Thanks again to you Harrington and also to you jonH, its beginning to feel as if this is raising more questions than answers but bat on with it we must and all your comments and responses are proving very valuable particularly so far as giving us options we weren't aware of previously.

  Hoping to get a call from Leigh Day tomorrow now.

  Thanks for this Harrington. Is it right now that it is not possible to claim the entirety of the legal costs from the defendant? And if not would it be possible for there to be quite some shortfall that the claimant would be liable for?

  I've also just got in touch with c-ams.co.uk/> to ask for a callback.

  This is some really great feedback, thanks everyone very much.

  That's helpful thanks Ste_S, we've just been looking at the written info from the solicitor my mum went to speak to yesterday and it says in there that will take 25% of the award but they also talk about a success fee and disbursement costs making their paperwork very difficult to read and at the end of it be sure exactly whats what and how much they want at the end of it.

  Appreciate it bazschmaz, she's become very down since it happened and (stating the obvious) is very fearful of getting back on her bike.
