Pedestrian knocked down under a van
I was knocked down from behind in a carpark by a van resulting in a leg fracture. I phoned a solicitor I know and also phoned Forbes Solicitors from the internet, no win no fee. I spoke directly to John Bennett solicitor who found the car park location while on the phone and discussed my case. He clearly explained what my case would entail.
I had no hesitation but to go with them, my paralegal secretary was Michelle Kemp who dealt directly with the case up to my damages pay out.
I was very impressed with the quick responses to my email queries plus the response back by email and the clear explanations throughout. I thoroughly recommend these solicitors.

Car crash claim
Although the claim time took a while, John was always in contact and keeping me updated. The process of it all was confusing but it was always explained to me on what was happening. I can’t thank John at Forbes enough for all his help, thank you

Forbes solicitors
Forbes have been our legal team for the past 6 years and John Bennett has been the solicitor for our case. The amount of work and dedication carried out from John has been immense. We have settled this case knowing my child will be set for life and have everything we will ever need. I feel very lucky to have found a solicitor so passionate about what he does. There isn’t anything in this world we could thank John with but, from the bottom of our hearts. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!
