Extraordinary Triumph in R4,654,596.00 RAF Settlement

updated: 25-Apr-17

Successfully settling claims against the Road Accident Fund (RAF) again and again, de Broglio Attorneys Inc. have proved phenomenal in resilience and legal expertize. Their impressive legal practice has been delivering success to their clients for over 2 decades and they continue to produce solid results, provide world-class service and forge forward in their legal daily battles on behalf of their clients. 

One such client of de Broglio Attorneys Inc. is Suzanne Erasmus* who was the innocent party in a catastrophic motor vehicle accident which changed her life forever. The accident occurred when another vehicle drove into her lane of travel colliding head on with her and leaving her with a brain injury and multiple fractures.

Suzanne hired de Broglio Attorneys Inc. to prosecute the RAF for compensation on her behalf. She found out about them by word of mouth and through their advertising. She said, “I heard about de Broglio through their advertising and my father in law and my husband told me about you guys.”

She contacted and consulted with the prestigious law firm who handled her RAF claim from beginning to end, financing the litigation and ensuring that her claim was managed in a most professional and determined way.

As is usual, the RAF did not come forward with an offer in Suzanne’s matter. This resulted in Suzanne and her legal team from de Broglio Attorneys Inc. going to court to fight for her claim to be settled successfully. Anna Kordas was her attorney and Anna reported, “There was no offer made by the RAF so we had to attend at court to argue before a Judge on an agreed basis.”

de Broglio Attorneys Inc. managed to win the argument against the RAF and the Judge in the North Gauteng High Court awarded Suzanne the fantastic amount of R4,654,596.00 in compensation. 

Suzanne was ecstatic with the settlement her attorneys secured for her and reflected positively on the experience of using de Broglio Attorneys Inc. to represent her, “The service was great, fantastic!! I am very happy with the settlement and would have never been able to get it without De Broglio.”
