Exceeded my expectations, very happy with outcome of my PI Case.

My claim started in the ‘Small Claims Team’ and was escalated to Multi-track. Initially I chose S&G to represent me because of the law firm’s well-known name, good reputation and positive reviews.

I must say, the Multi-track solicitors exceeded my expectations. The professionalism, honesty, timely-responses and case management was exceptional. It was very clear to me that this is a law firm with thorough legal knowledge and experience. I recommend S&G and would definitely return if I required their services again.

Very unprofessional

In the sea of issues, chasing them to book an exam with a medical expert lasted over a year and a half. Report was done without an expert having most of my medical records relevant for the case, my lawyer wasn't bothered with it. I was the one investigating it. My case handler didn't 'understand' Court Proceedings had to be filled on the 3 yr anniversary of the case. Another major drawback when being served offer Part 36, my case handler tried to mislead me on the date when offer was served. My case handler tried to make it like the date is not important. Company has not done anything to work in my best interest from the start till the end.

A representative from Slater And Gordon Uk Limited responded to this review on 18 March, 2024:

Hi Vedrana, Thank you for your review. Please accept our apologies for any dissatisfaction you may have experienced, this is not the high level of customer satisfaction we strive for. Please be assured that your concerns were investigated thoroughly by our legal team and we will take your comments under advisement for our future development. We appreciate your feedback.

My sale and purchase nearly fell through due to incompetence & neglect

The service was extremely poor. The whole sale and purchase process nearly collapsed due to incompetence and neglect. I was allocated 3 different lawyers and in the end the whole job was given over to a paralegal who admitted they lacked experience. There was a long delay because my paperwork was lost and I had to send it again. I also ended up having to do some of the searches myself through desperation. My very experienced estate agent said he'd never known anything like it. They ignore emails and don't put you through on the phone line. Avoid this company for your sanity's sake.

Tenacity Personified

Slater & Gordon concluded the claim against VW after years of legal battles with the company. In spite of conceding their case in the USA, VW raised numerous technical excuses in UK courts. Nevertheless, S&G pursued their counter-arguments relentlessly until damages were awarded against VW. I was lucky enough to be a participant in that early Class Action.

My late father engaged Slater and Gordon whilst suppering form Asbestosis, we were visited by a solicitor all the way from Manchester and signed up then for them to review the facts and decide if they could win any legal case. Very quickly they came back agreeing to take on the case and from that point they acted swiftly, gathering evidence, facts and also all dealings with family were conducted with great respect once my father had died.

highly recommend them, outcome was a compensation award and I cannot recommend them enough!

thank you

I have recently used Slater and Gordon for an employment matter and I honestly cannot praise Doreen who helped me enough! There was a strict deadline and this was reached in perfect timing after only giving Doreen around a weeks notice (SORRY! Employers fault for not sending the contract sooner!). None the less, she took this on with no problems, kept me updated and advised me of next steps. This has been a really stressful time for me and Doreen’s empathy and listening skills really helped me get this matter resolved and put to bed. I’m very grateful. Thank you again Doreen 🙏
