Road Traffic Accident

In May 2022 i was involved in a road traffic accident, as a serving police officer. A claim was immediately begun and as a result of a broken nose, neurology and various specialist appointments - the claim was settled November 2024. This whole process was explained, up-dated and clearly has taken a great deal of effort, expertise and time to get resolved. I have received an excellent service through-out and the final agreed settlement is a more than fair compensation for the injury's etc. I have no hesitation in reviewing this excellent service and placing on record my thanks to Chris Thompson and his team - thankyou guys.
