Thompsons took over my case after being with another solicitor.
They took my case on and made me feel reassured at proceeding.
Joel Shaw was the first one I spoke to at Thompsons and was the one I stayed with all the way through my case.I found every step was explained to me in a way I could understand, found the whole process with Joel very professional and thorough and to the point. Can't recomend this company enough very professional and patient as well as experienced in what they do, highly recomend

Lauren was amazing and kept me informed every step of the way.
My accident had taken place quite a while before so trying to remember some of the details was difficult but Lauren was so patient and understanding and I am very grateful to her for all her help.

Jennifer Wallace is an asset to Thompsons

This review is for a different branch.

Jennifer handled a very difficult and emotional case for myself and my parents recently and I honestly can’t thank her enough for her approach and professionalism.
She was very empathetic and understanding of our situation, very thorough and detailed, and her communication was excellent.
I have to say that prior to her involvement my case was handled by a different solicitor at Thompsons and my experience was very poor, with very little communication or progression.
Jennifer took over the case and was very quickly on the phone to me clarifying the case and position and in all honesty restored my confidence in Thompsons, and for the first time I actually felt like someone cared. Jennifer listened to me, and did everything she said she would. She regularly updated me and followed-up on our case and was able to reach a very very fair settlement. Jennifer - on behalf of my parents and I, we are incredibly grateful and I would like to say Thank You for your professional approach and the kindness shown when talking with me. We wish you all the best.

Accident claim

This review is for a different branch.

I required to consult solicitors following a road traffic accident. My injury claim was handled by Corinne Skelton. Corinne was incredibly friendly and helpful and very knowledgeable indeed. She gave excellent and pragmatic advice and set realistic expectations. She was incredibly professional and went above and beyond to get the best possible settlement. I would highly recommend Corinne.

Based without seeing medical evidence
In the case. The case is at the courts if there was no merit in the case this would not be at the court. . I would advise anyone looking personal injury solicitor to

Left me waiting months after sending them pictures emails etc. when they finally got back in touch to tell me they weren't going to do anything, they didn't even know my name. Unless you can make them big bucks with no effort, you're on your own.
