I'm more surprised that your other half's medical report DOES put a number to it. That's not the doctor's job. The doctor's job is to state what the physical damage is...

Thanks hun both the copies of the reports were sent from carpenters who are dealing with the case for us to sign and return i just didn't understand why they were different

You should be waiting at least 8 months before you claim to establish whether or not you've made a complete recovery.

Yes you might want to look into this. I have heard of people settling for relatively small amounts soon after an accident who are still suffering years later. It's in the other party's interests to get you to sign off sooner rather than later.

Is Carpenters your Solicitors or were they appointed by the insurance company? You might try searching here for more realistic reviews of this company than those on TrustPilot.
