Exceptional experience..
My Son, who has complex needs and disabilities suffered a potentially life changing injury due to the negligence of his previous Care Providers..
I was recommended to James by a friend who is a Solicitor in another field.
Words can’t truly express how grateful we are as a family for everything that James has done.
From the very first time of meeting him shortly after the accident had happened, he showed such kindness and understanding towards my son.
He is also an outstanding Solicitor… it has taken 5 years to reach the conclusion of our Case ( no fault of James)..
Finally in August of this Year my Son received his Compensation Award.
This will be So useful for him as he progresses through life, and..importantly to me his Mum , I feel pleased that there is recognition of his Suffering and some sort of justice has been achieved.
James was the Voice for my Son ..~ Thankyou So much 🌟

Medical negligence
I can’t thank James King enough for his help and support through the most traumatic experience of my life, this is a trauma that I am still trying to heal from. For almost 3 years! James came through for me in a way I didn’t expect, he was respectful, understanding, professional, and I didn’t feel judged. What an asset of a great human! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! And thank you to your team. May you always have an amazing path in life for you and your generation.
