Hi I think I have a valid personal injury claim but everything I can find about my situation is vague here is my situation:
My son blake shaw died 22/08/16 in a horrendous accident in which a closed double door cabinet that I had designed for a DVD collection toppled and the top half of the 7' cabinet crushed his skull into tiles, I had it made so he couldn't get his fingers jammed, couldn't climb due to its completely flat surface and couldn't open the doors as I had them installed at 5' 2" so they were well out of his reach, and the cabinet had stood where it stood for 7 months prior, the amount of pain and suffering my partner and I had to and are dealing with. We both have been separately diagnosed with chronic PTSD, major Depression, suicidal thoughts, and I alone have been diagnosed night terrors and insomnia. Life is hell... from what I can make out my partner and I may be able to put in a claim for loss of consortium, loss of identity, loss of security, maybe impairment of intimate physical relationships I dont fully know what we could claim if anything. The police took over the house at the time of death, the scene of the accident was in a different room as to where he died, but the police had left blakey mostly uncovered and wouldn't let either of us see him for 5 hours, I had to say goodbye and carry my son to the ambulance in full rigormortis that those moments have deeply disturbed me and haunt me every day, then the leading senior Sargent in charge of the papers for the coroner on 2 separate occasions said to me and kirsty that we have him snowed under with paperwork, and how much of a 'Pain in the Ass" it all is for him. I am disgusted with the way the police handled the situation and the very cold and harsh comments from Sargent mellington, can anything be done there? and do we qualify for any sort of compensation we have not been living life so to say since he died, now we're trying to restart life but we are buried in debt after the psychological nightmare the last 2 years have been
