A good experience from a bad time

Knowing nothing about the legal side of things I went into my claim wondering what I was getting myself into but after speaking to Marc and other members of his team my mind was quickly put at ease I was guided through the whole process and was reassured all the way i was never told anything that didn’t happen and come out of the process very satisfied

Personal Injury Claim

Marc Folgate and his team have been amazing. They have all been so kind, supportive and understanding and I have felt very cared for throughout the 4 years of my complicated case. Something I never expected from a law team.
Apart from obviously everyone’s knowledge and experience, I could not have coped with this journey without Marc and his team.
I was under no illusions how tough it would be, but without all their (and I want to say almost family care) , and their belief in me, I don’t think I would have got to the end.

Personal Injury Case

Dear Marc,Vicky,Irene and Mandy ,
You are all an amazing team. You have all been so kind, supportive and understanding. I have felt very cared for, throughout my case. Something that I never expected from a law team.
Apart from everyone’s knowledge and experience, I could not have coped with this journey without Marc and all of you holding my hand the whole way. Right from the very first phone call with Marc, I felt I could totally trust in you all, and that is something I do not do easily.
I was under no illusions, how tough this process and journey would be. But without your (and I want to say almost family caring) and your belief in me, I would not have got to the end.
Thank you all so very very much for everything. Gill

Cycle accident injury claim

I was fortunate to be recommended to Folgate Legal after a serious accident when a new bicycle’s handlebars detached. They took on my claim against both cycle shop and manufacturers and obtained a highly satisfactory settlement within a short space of time, with a minimum of fuss.

Accident Claim

I was advised by a similar company in Bishop’s Stortford that did not cover this type of claim and l wasn’t disappointed. I dealt with Vicky Louise and she was outstanding from start to finish. Louise kept in the picture and l didn’t do a thing and this took all pressure of me. I would totally recommend this company if you want any help over a claim and made to feel you are a team trying to win a justifiable claim.

A professional caring company

Seldom does one come across a company so professional and caring as Folgate. Mark sees the cases through and gets a good deal for the customer. Calls are followed up. The detail is attended to. His is well served by his team too.
I can recommend this company to all potential customers.

About this branch

Description

We are a specialist legal practice which undertakes only personal injury claims on behalf of Claimants. At a time in which government and the insurance industry have combined to discourage claims, and Claims Management Companies disappear under new regulatory obligations, Folgate Legal Limited provides Claimants with two formidable allies against the insurance industry; expertise and experience. Folgate Legal Limited is situated in the city of Peterborough with offices near to the Cathedral. Marc Folgate is particularly known for his regional coverage for Claimants based in Northamptonshire, Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire. However, with the practice being centrally located, Folgate Legal is well placed to provide national coverage. Our pledge is this. If you have a claim which we believe we can meaningfully win for you and you cannot get to us, we will get to you.
