Client Testimonials

“Highly Recommend”

Oliver dealt with our case with a sensitive manner. He carefully explained each stage of the process to us and we always felt in safe hands, knowing he would do everything possible to find answers. It has been an incredibly upsetting time for our whole family and we would like to thank Oliver for all his hard work and professionalism throughout this time.

“Friendly, Professional, Knowledgeable.”

Oliver assisted me in the aftermath of my father’s sudden death in hospital. He helped me to draught my initial letter of complaint to the health authority, represented me and my mother at the inquest and ultimately succeeded in bringing a successful claim. I always felt I could approach Oliver with any questions and he would explain the legal processes in an understandable way. I would not hesitate to recommend him should anyone find themselves in a similar unfortunate position.

“Clinical Negligence Case”

Katie took on our case only recently but I felt she provided an excellent service in terms of making contact with me and making herself very available for more contact if required, explaining everything that had gone before and what we should expect next and conducting herself in a very professional but relaxed manner throughout. My comments below are specific to Katie.

“Thank You”

On behalf of all of us, we would like to thank you for your guidance, professionalism, humanity and kindness you have shown us all throughout this process. You have explained everything to us in clear and concise terms throughout and we are extremely grateful. We would have no hesitation recommending you and using your services in future. Thank you.

“Exceptional Service”

I have received expert advice throughout my case, the attention to detail is second to none. Their professional outlook and relatability means that I always recommend the firm. When I was unclear of any information or possible outcomes they took the time to speak with me on a personal level, confirming our conversation through email, I feel supported and understood and most of all they are empathetic, something that is often missing from large firms.

“Incredible”

I have collected research on other solicitors and this one is at the top. Katy to say the least has been incredible with handling my case, she’s consistent with communication and extremely thorough in her work. I hope you all get to work with Katy if it comes to a claim.
