Justice
I could not recommend leoni enough . If you have a vulnerable person you need justice for she is the person . She took on a unique case that was hard to prove. As we were already dealing with a person with learning disabilities and no capacity . But she didn't give up and fought the system . She did this with compassion and understanding of our situation . I can't thank her enough as she fought for us when noone else would x

Medical Negligence
On the 22/12/22 unfortunately my partner and myself lost our beautiful daughter Ivy-Grace at 27 weeks. Only to be told a couple of months later after attending a meeting at the hospital that it was due to Medical Negligence as to why we lost our beautiful little girl. We was advised to contact a solicitor which we did and fortunately we got Leonie Millard who has not only fought for justice for Ivy-Grace she’s also helped with myself, my partner and my mum get through one of the hardest times in our lives. Even though Leonie was a legal representative for us, we have felt that she has been a personal friend and she has made it easy for us to understand nothing was too much for Leonie and without her support for the last two years we as a family feel like we would not have gotten through it without her. And on behalf of myself and my partner Alex I want to say Thank you very much for helping us through the hardest time of our lives that little bit easier.

Outstanding legal services
Leonie is an outstanding solicitor who has dedicated her career to helping clients who gives her clients a voice when they might not have one themselves due to their disability. She is very responsive in responding to queries about my relatives case and replies to e-mails and phone-calls very quickly which is an excellent trait in a solicitor. She was very compassionate, caring, and committed to the outcome of my relatives case which was a very good outcome and secured justice for her. Leonie's service over the past four years has been absolutely perfect and she is supported by an excellent team of Carole Purdie (her secretary) who is on the ball and does her best to support client queries too. I would rate Forbes Solicitors 5/5 stars and I can't identify any recommendations on how they improve their services because they provided a consistent perfect service over the past four years!

Medical Negligence
Leonie has been amazing from the very start of our journey. Her knowledge and expertise is second to none and it has been informative and a great pleasure to deal with her.
I would like to personally thank Leonie for the great work she did on the medical negligence claim on behalf of my father. It has been a traumatic and long process, due to resistance from the defendant, but Leonie was there every step of the way, fighting our corner. She always answers any questions and responds to all emails and telephone calls promptly. I was kept up to date with any developments throughout the process and she listened to all my moans and groans with a sympathetic and understanding ear, providing reassurance in what sometimes felt like a futile battle. Following an initial offer from the defendant, Leonie managed to secure over three times the amount of compensation. I can't thank you enough for getting the justice my dad deserved. I would recommend Leonie Millard to anyone who requires a lawyer that isn't just in it for the money, but has a huge passion for justice. A HUGE thank you Leonie!!

Exceptional service
We choose Forbes to help us with a complicated PI claim. They have been compassionate, caring and professional throughout the whole process. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. We were initially offered £12,000 and thanks to Leonie we secured a 6 figure offer which will finance the right care that is needed due to someone else's negligence.
