Steven Turner and Keoghs secure £125,000 judgment and huge exemplary damages award

Steven Turner, working with Keoghs and Hastings Direct, has been successful in a tort of deceit claim against five defendants, resulting in one of the largest ever exemplary damages awards – £50,000 – arising from a single road traffic incident.
