Personal injury specialists Hudgell Solicitors are making the claim on Stuart’s behalf.
Solicitor Katy Nelson said: “Victims like Mr Sunderland find themselves in a horrendous position as they have suffered serious injury, but they are also left with no means of which to make a claim to compensate them for their injuries and loss.
“He is now looking at least 12 months where he will be unable to earn and support his family, possibly much longer.

“In these circumstances, we will be looking to secure Mr Sunderland compensation to help him and his family financially through these difficult times, and to secure rehabilitation support to help him towards his recovery.
“In such cases, the MIB is there to assist the thousands of people who are injured, and the families of those killed, by uninsured and untraced drivers.”
