Our team of specialist medical accident lawyers (part of Slee Blackwell Solicitors LLP) is here to help you achieve justice and obtain the compensation you deserve.

We are ranked as one of the country’s top Clinical Negligence Solicitors in the UK by independent legal review platform, ReviewSolicitors (January 2025) and have been given a five star rating. You can check out the reviews we have received at www.reviewsolicitors.co.uk.

The team led by accredited Action against Medical Accidents (AvMA) panel lawyer Oliver Thorne. Oliver and his fellow partner Caroline Webber-Brown are recommended by the UK’s two leading legal guides, the Legal 500, and Chambers and Partners for their work in the field of medical negligence law.

When selecting a medical accident lawyer to represent you it is so important to establish that they are genuine experts in this highly complex area of law. As AvMA themselves state:

“Specialist solicitors are much more likely to accurately assess your chances of success in your claim and give appropriate advice on how to proceed.”

We have been independently ranked in the top 10 clinical negligence firms in the UK by the leading legal review website, ReviewSolicitors*. In fact we are ranked second out of 942 clinical negligence firms across the whole nation.

The website’s rankings are primarily based on client reviews and we have collected more than 1,300 reviews in total, gaining an overall 5 star rating.

Our team works closely with the UK’s leading medical negligence barristers, and we enjoy strong relationship with some of the country’s most respected medical experts, rehabilitation service providers, and financial advisors.

We pride ourselves on providing the very best client care, and this is reflected in the fact that we have been awarded Lexcel accreditation – the Law Society’s kite mark for excellence in client care.

Oliver and Caroline along with the rest of dedicated team will be happy to have an informal chat about the process of making a medical accident claim. They will let you know what your best options are and provide you with a free legal assessment of your case.

If you wish to go ahead with making a claim we we will create an individual action plan and look at the best funding options available to you, including our popular No Win, No Fee scheme. This scheme is backed by a leading insurance company, which means you can leave us to pursue your case safe in the knowledge that if it is not successful, you will not have to pay any legal fees.

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.
