Slater and Gordan-Hannah Gibson

Overall, the process was good it was slow to progress but majority of the time it can be out of the control of Slater and Gordan as there are delays with medical experts.

Hannah Gibson was very informative and quick to progress the claim throughout the process when it was within her control and although she is a Paralegal and not a senior solicitor, I believe she did the necessary requirements for this case and to reach a settlement before court proceedings.

However, whether I received maximum compensation and could have received more is unknown so would not like to comment on this, but I was in the process of switching solicitors as reading case study's of similar claims settling for more.

However, after talking to a senior solicitor outside of Slater and Gordan he did advise some of the case study settlements shown are not an accurate reflection as many factors contribute to this for example loss of Salary, Age, Profession etc.

Overall, I am satisfied as I may I have received more compensation if this case carried on but the risks of not settling early may have outweighed, as know I can concentrate and focus on my future going forward.

Awful

My daughters and myself went through them following a car accident. They still have the money for both my daughter's claims. Never hear back from them. Don't even hear back following a complaint. Wouldn't recommend that anyone goes near this firm. Seem to have a very high turnover of staff (speaks volumes), probably the reason no one gets back to you or takes responsibility for anything.

After 9 months after my accident I am still waiting to be informed if slater and gordon are taking on my case. They don't reply to emails in a timely manner. I find them very unprofessional and wish I had never gone to them for help . I don't feel like they are interested in my case or infact are on my side . I would never recommend this company to anybody ,very frustrating to deal with

Avoid Slater & Gordon like the plague

If you’re looking for a solicitors that lack ethics, customer service, failure to progress then and will put you at a loss financially and mentally Slater & Gordon will be up your street. Simple claim took over 2 years. Trial finished over 5 weeks ago and still haven’t paid out my insurers. £16,000+ sitting in their bank gaining interest. Parasitic company.

Quantity not quality. Lack of communication. Wrote to the ClientCare team to just be further ignored. My claim is still in the same position it was over 4 months ago - with the accident being a year ago! I’ve had to chase up my own medical discharges, amended court documents (the original ones were sent incorrectly with wrong info) recieved correct ones over 2 months later, receive no correspondence from my solicitor dealing with my claim.. list is endless. Will not be using these again.
EDIT - 28/07/2022
The response from Slater & Gordon below, believe it or not.. nobody had even contacted with me regarding this above. I’m still in the same position as when I posted this review.
EDIT - 05/02/2023
S&G issued court proceedings too early, ended up taking opposing party to court with S&G not giving all evidence/missing paperwork presented to the judge. Now currently going through the process of NEGLIGENCE against this firm as I have lost thousands financially and still left physically & mentally unwell.

Absolutely ridiculous

Slater and Gordon have been dealing with my case for over a year now. I signed an acceptance offer in March 2022 and was told I would receive payment within 14 days, it is now almost June and I still haven’t received my payment I have been chasing my legal advisor “Jayne Foy” for months and it has been extremely hard to get in touch with her and whenever I call the firm it’s always the same thing “ we have sent an email to Jayne” or “someone will get in touch with you” absolutely sick and tired of these people it’s exhausting. Last week I was asked to send in a bank statement and payment would be received within 5 days it’s now been 6 days since I sent the statement and still nothing.

wouldn’t even recommend slater and Gordon to my worst enemy !!!

I had quite a traumatic birth and contacted Slater & Gordon lawyers. I cannot thank Megan Santageli-ball enough for her help during the case. She explained everything to me and answered any questions I had promptly. I am thankful for all your help and support during this case. Your proffesionalism is unmatched. I would definitely recommend. 10/10. Thank you so much!
