Feeling held througout the whole process.

To find myself in a very difficult position, Thompsons were professional and nothing less than exemplary throughout the legal process. I was treated respectfully, with integrity and as a person and not just another statistic.

Great guidance and support

5

Robert and his team have provided really great support and guidance over what has been an almost 5 year process. Having never been in this situation before I wouldn’t have known what to expect or what was reasonable but I have had support each step of the way. Should I have to go through something like this again I would hope to be allocated the same team. Thank you!

Service

Robert has kept me up to date with the case on a regular basis. One of things i appreciated is when i received a call from him, he always checked to see if it was ok for me to talk. This was very much appreciated due to working in a school it can be difficult at times to take calls and chat. Robert advised me when an offer was made, advising me it was possible to be offered slightly more. Refusing to accept the first offer another offer was made which was slight higher. I appreciate all the hard work which has gone into my claim. Well done and thank you very much.
