Always taxi drivers. I reversed into a parking spot once and a taxi driver pulled up tight behind me and I just clipped the corner of the car. Zero damage, details exchanged, photos were taken, insurance sorting everything. Within an hour I got a call from one of these no-fee lawyers who I told to fuck off and referred them to my insurance. Two months later, I get a letter from them saying she was claiming thousands due to her being injured, no longer able to ride a horse or do the ironing and for lost work ....the amount of bullshit you just couldn't make up. My insurance company were brilliant though and said they had a team who were fighting abusers like this and told me not to worry as they were sending their legal team to fight her. Rather unsurprisingly, she dropped the case. It was actually her private team of no-win no-fee lawyers who were pursuing this, it turned out her actual car insurance company wouldn't take it on. Absolute scum. people wanting something for nothing.
I'm glad you fought back. Sadly most don't which means these low lives get away with it.

Those no fee lawyers are just as bad, or even worse coz they know the system. They just need a handful of wins to make their operation worthwhile and their clients gets 2p if they're lucky
