I have no doubt that the whole process of seeking compensation is in itself a traumatic experience. This is based on the experience of someone close to me, where a mental disability as a result of trauma which has renderered that person unlikely to be able to work again when they had previously held a good job requiring intellectual ability. Whilst I accept that compensation payments need to be fair and appropriate, and justifiable, somehow the fact finding processes need to be conducted in such a manner that the injured party does not suffer more harm.
