Inefficient and Ineffective
My case took far too long and the process was extremely disjointed with the change of personnel, and the loss of documents/emails and momentum. (I'm not even sure the original contact was a solicitor, as opposed to a Paralegal or Legal Assistant). Certainly at the beginning it never felt like I was being given adequate attention.
There was a total absence of any technical or industrial knowledge which would have been key. For example, an engineers report was carried out on the particular lorry bed AFTER it had been repaired at a later date. This was completely pointless as the issue was the state of the lorry bed AT THE TIME of the incident.
In the main, legal and financial issues weren't explained at an appropriate level; I have some technical knowledge, but know absolutely nothing about legal procedures or billing intricacies. The significant deductions from the final settlement did come as a bit of a surprise and I still don't really understand them; that is, I don't feel they were explained clearly enough for someone with my skill-set.

Dear Colin Thank you for your review. We are disappointed to learn that you don’t feel you were kept fully informed throughout the process. We believe you were and in our view we went above and beyond in our service to you throughout your claim which was connected to a complex and fiercely defended linked case. Kind regards. Coodes

Bad day on the Bus
Following an accident on my local bus I used Coodes to represent me on a no win no fee basis against the bus company. I found them to be very professional and fair in their dealings with me making the whole process very clear and simple from the very start keeping me informed throughout.
Im glad to say the whole process is now complete and I am more than happy with the final outcome.
Would I recommend this company for anyone wishing to make a similar claim, absolutely 100%

RTA - Personal Injury Claim
I had a bit of a rocky experience in the middle of the claim as the person who was dealing with my case suddenly left and I was not made aware..but as soon as David took over everything ran smoothly, and he was always there for me to ask questions and give me updates. David was very knowledgeable and I believe he did the best he could for my case.
