Thank you

After a life changing industrial accident Catherine assisted me over what turned out to be a three year period to settle on good terms.

I really do appreciate the advice and assistance I was given by Catherine and feel that I was linked with the best medical professionals and such.

I was offered sound advice and kept informed throughout with timely responses and a pro active approach taken at all times by my solicitor.

It is worth noting that I had previously instructed another firm on this matter and come to truth legal as I really wasn’t happy with the other firm.

The difference was night and day and I am very grateful for the help I have received from Catherine and all at Truth Legal.

Supportive, caring and considerate

After suffering a serious accident at work and having no legal knowledge I am very thankful I was able to discover Catherine and the Truth Legal who gave me the upmost support, care and help throughout the entire process, at a great no-win-no-fee agreement too. All resulting in a good outcome. Catherine and the team were consistently caring, attentive and on the ball throughout the whole process. I was given the absolute best advice and guidance, and I would highly recommend Catherine and Truth Legal to anyone who needs them.
A tough experience in life was made a lot easier to deal with thanks to Catherine, she is certainly a wonderful person and lawyer. I am very grateful.

Supportive, understanding and helpful.

Catherine worked with me over the 8 month duration of my claim. After a particularly traumatising workplace incident I was unsure if I even wanted to proceed with a claim as I knew it would be an emotionally difficult process. Catherine and her team were always understanding, patient and clear with their explanations of what the process would involve and what the next steps would be. Everything was handled smoothly and sensitively. Appointments with medics were organised for me.

Catherine always made time to speak to me on the phone, or to reply promptly to my emails, to keep me updated with the progress of my claim. She made all the legal jargon very easy for me to understand in layman’s terms.

It is an arduous and emotional process putting a claim through, but Catherine was warm and professional and kind at all stages. Concluding my claim has helped me to regain a sense of control over an incident in which I was completely powerless. Many, many thanks.

Catherine has been my lawyer throughout a long and exhausting process. She is a great professional. She was always by my side, explaining all the details, understanding, willing to help and understanding my schedule and needs. She did not give up and advised me wisely. I only have good words for her. She is the best!

Someone on my side

After being approached by an an insurance company for documentation and story of accounts, I needed someone to represent me and look through all the small print with my interests at heart. Truth Legal cut through the jargon, were in my corner, and looked after me and my case - taking away all the headache and concerns I might have had... I could leave them to it.

And, we ended with a good result :)

Thanks Sarah and the TL team

Excellent service

Needed to find a lawyer to help with a personal injury accident.
And after doing some research felt confident in contact Truth legal.
From the first telephone call I knew I’d made the right choice in choosing this legal office. Was dealt with effectively and compassionately and was given a personal lawyer called Sarah W
The case as been over a few years but in that time I have nothing but praise for Sarah she had been a pleasure to deal with, always professional and friendly and open and honest.
Has kept me updated all the way and given sound advice, she really is a credit to the firm and made the experience as easy as possible for myself, can not thank her enough for her kindness and understanding. I would highly recommend the company. And would not hesitate to use there services again.

We contacted Truth Legal earlier this year in a quagmire of immigration difficulties. Louis MacWilliam not only helped us with what we thought needed to be done, but proposed a different and way better solution. I am now living in England and very happy to recommend Truth Legal. At first we thought the costs might be a bit high, but considering all the time and money we saved I'd say they were more than fair and we saved quite a lot of money in the end.

A representative from Truth Legal Limited responded to this review on 01 November, 2021:

Thank you for this kind review. “Quagmire” expertly describes the situation which many people sadly gave when navigating the immigration system. It ought to be simpler. With the very best of wishes for the future here.

We got off to a very bad start with simpson millar, in that our original conveyancer was completely unresponsive, uncontactable, and this continued for what was around 4-5 months. I had to stay on the phoneline for a very long time and push to talk to a manager, and insist that something happened to progress our case, as it should have been completed easily by this point. After this, a manager gave our case file to a new conveyancer, Sarah Wakeman, who was very understanding, very professional and helpful and completed our case within the next 4-5 weeks.

The consequences of what happened originally are that, we had to complete on the property we were selling (with a different conveyancing group) as to not lose our buyers, leaving us with nowhere to live and having to find short term accommodation. We also had to pay for a storage unit for our furniture, a van to move there, and consequently a van to move to house upon completion, we ended up having to do 300miles a week just taking taking children to school, and we also ended up having to pay the stamp duty, so as you can see, the delays made it extremely costly for us, and we believe this was all very much avoidable.

As stated earlier, Sarah was brilliant and apologetic on Simpson Millars behalf, despite non of the problems were caused by herself, she did her best to try to overcome and hurry the process along. If Sarah had our case from the start, I would have given 5 stars.

A representative from Truth Legal Limited responded to this review on 11 October, 2021:

Hi William, I’m really sorry to hear about your initial experience with us, but very pleased that Sarah turned things around. I hope you’re now settled in your new home. Best wishes Sue
