It really is all about the lawyers. I work in public liability claims for a public authority. We had a claim go to court where a guy was walking his dog where someone had recently burn out a stolen car, and tripped on a damaged kerbstone. Our lawyers advised us to fight it, and won - the judge said the damage to the kerbstone was obvious, the claimant should have been looking where he was going, 100% contributory negligence on the part of the claimant, case dismissed. On the way out our lawyers offered his lawyers a grand and a quarter to avoid any appeal.
