19 years ago we began our journey with Tozers. We started with the wonderful sadly no longer with us Tim Dyde and completed the case with the outstanding Michelle Beckett.
Michelle at Tozers has become much more than just our solicitor her understanding and compassion to our ever changing family situations has always gone above and beyond. Her professionalism is outstanding alongside the ability to care for us as clients during difficult times arising throughout the years. Michelle is highly competent and leaves you always feeling well informed and updated.

Michelle Beckett - Erbs Palsy claim
From the moment I contacted Michelle regarding my son’s birth injury I felt reassured I’d made the right choice in Tozers. Michelle’s knowledge and understanding on shoulder dystocia and Erbs palsy and relationships with top experts helped with an initial admission of liability from the defendant. Through all expert assessments and our statements Michelle’s sympathetic and understanding approach helped both myself and my son through a tough and emotional process. Michelle was sensitive and understanding with our emotions and no question, no matter how many times we asked, was ever too much for Michelle. She spend the time with us to explain over the phone and always with a follow up email for reassurance. Michelle’s expertise in my opinion has been phenomenal and she ensured my son got the result he deserved. We can not thank Michelle enough for her commitment and hard work on my sons case.

Very satisfied and excellent level of services
We have been referred to Tozers by a friend who’s used their services before and our case was initially been handled by Michelle who was an outstanding solicitor. She always had time to discuss any unclear matter and all the steps. She made the whole process so easy for us to understand. Eventually, she had to take a leave and she introduced is to Stuart who’s taken over from her and Stuart had since been so professional, approachable and friendly with us and always had time to discuss any issues with us. Very happy and would highly recommend them.
