‘Credit hire claims often involve large sums of money, the majority of which is from the credit of the insurer. The exact amount of damages awarded is down, to a large degree, to the discretion of the judge so it is important for the claimant’s legal team to get as much of the evidence watertight before the hearing as possible. From experience at court, there are certain elements of a case which are hard to fix on the day of the hearing, but which can be caught in advance, and lead to a better result for the claimant.’
