I experienced a Trip and Fall.
After my initial enquiries regarding liability it was obvious that this was a legal mine field.
I contacted Girlings Personal Injury Claims and was referred to Raphaelle Davies. From that moment until a successful conclusion I was kept informed and treated with the utmost of respect and regard.
I would not hesitate in recommending Raphaelle.

Great service throughout a long claims process

Following an accident where I was taken off of my bicycle and sustained a broken clavicle, the team at Girlings were fantastic throughout the 2 and a half years of the claims process. The service, was highly professional and thorough throughout and I would have no concern recommending them to friends and family.

I had a wonderful experience with Girlings

Following an accident I had in 2020
I decided to ask for help from Girlings
It started with miss Raphelle Davis who put all the info needed together in a very professional manner in order for me to set out a claim , then
mr Brian Cowell who fought my case who was very good at noing what to do head strong when he needed to be and was very understanding and compassionate when I was falling to pieces because off my injuries emotional state and my condition , at times i was an emotional reck
And he was very upstanding
And to miss Emma Manley who guided me through setting up my trust and to everyone else inbeween that answered the phone when I needed them I will be forever gratefully
And wish them all well
Thank you all for being there and for all your patience

Injury claim

From the moment I first contacted Raphaelle until the conclusion of my claim a year later, I always felt I was in safe hands. I was genuinely impressed by how professional and conscientious she was, always taking the time to explain things clearly and thoroughly, and I really appreciated her meticulous approach. Injury claims and the circumstances leading to them can be very stressful and emotional, and Raphaelle always treated me and my claim with utmost consideration and respect, I genuinely felt comforted by having her in my corner. It truly was refreshing to find someone so dedicated to giving a first class service.

I was involved in an accident with a car while riding my cycle. I chose Girlings to represent me and I cannot fault the way they have handled my claim. Raphaelle was extremely professional, making sure I understood each stage of the process and always acting in my best interests. I am more than satisfied with the conclusion of my claim and compensation. I would definitely recommend Girlings to anyone needing the services of a Personal Injury Claims Solicitor.

Girlings took on my case (after another firm messed up). The time, patience, professionalism and out right hard work Kate Kennell and her team put into my case was truly outstanding. A true testament to their work ethics and passion for what they do.

From the start, Girlings made haste on all the wrong doings from a previous firm, quickly acting in the sole interest of helping me get my case to the necessary stages that it should have been at the time my case was taken over. With perseverance, endless amounts of persistence and a great amount of diligence they maintained contact with me, ensuring I was always in the know of what was happening at any one moment. Despite the myriad of emotions I experienced through the case, they always remained calm, calculated and caring.

The result of all the hard work by Kate Kennell and her team resulted in a settlement for an accident that was truly life changing.

I would recommend Girlings without a shadow of a doubt, to anyone who has a Personal Injury claim. If anyone is indeed in need of professionalism, knowledge, advice, and a company who go above and beyond to get the best result for their clients then this is the company for you.

If Girlings take on your case, smile and know these professionals will get the job done.

I approached Sue Man at the company who gave me some advice about a potential negligence claim that left my daughter disabled.

I have to say that it was some of the most thorough, but concise information I have ever been given.

Sue's ability to get to the facts with speed are impressive!

Thank you for your time, your empathy and your professionalism.
