Greening-Steer suffered a fractured spine and a moderate to severe traumatic brain injury. However, surveillance footage allegedly shows him walking normally, contradicting his claims. This has raised suspicions about the validity of his compensation claim.

The defence argues that Greening-Steer’s claim should be valued at £112,022 instead of the requested £4.92 million. Neurosurgeons have concluded that he is exaggerating his symptoms, suggesting possible malingering to enhance the value of his claim.

Key claims by Greening-Steer:

• He reports difficulties with manual dexterity, including struggles with buttons and laces.
• He claims he can only walk 100 meters without exhaustion, yet he has been filmed walking 150 meters.
• The total damages claim includes over £1.8 million for lifetime care and assistance.
• He was running a refrigerated trailer business at the time of the accident but now asserts he can no longer work.

If found fundamentally dishonest, Greening-Steer could receive nothing from his claim. Charles Woodhouse KC stated, “His dishonesty has been present from the start of and throughout his claim.” A medical expert noted that conscious exaggeration is clearly depicted, adding that Greening-Steer appears to be malingering.

The trial is ongoing, with observers closely watching the proceedings in the High Court. The outcome may set a precedent for future personal injury cases involving similar allegations of fraud.
