Thank you Kate Campbell-Gunn

Taking legal action is not for the faint hearted, it’s a lengthy process having to constantly relive a painful experience, attend medical examinations, read/discuss reports … and I don’t think I would have got through this without Kate Campbell Gunn who is an empathetic, good person who will talk to you at your level, advise and listen. I suffered aesthetic and functional injuries following cosmetic surgery. My case was a difficult one, but Kate took it on after very poor service from another firm and I will forever be grateful to her. I have now received compensation and though I will always carry scars and nothing will ever be the same, I am now able to pay for expensive revision and start to rebuild my life. Thank you Kate.

Exceptional expertise & service

I couldn't be more pleased with the service provided; from our initial consultation to the steps to tackle our case. Our solicitor demonstrated an impressive level of experience, expertise, and above all compassion.

They made the entire process stress-free, explaining every step in clear terms and keeping me updated on the progress of my claim. Their attention to detail and commitment to securing the best possible outcome for me was evident throughout. I always felt reassured that my case was in capable hands.

Thank you.

Personal injury due to medical negligence

Solicitor Kate worked my case over a period of time, despite the challenges of the case.
She worked diligently to plow through reams of medical information, but also more importantly listened to me, the person with the experience of being injured through medical negligence by specialist consultant. Kate communicated well, keeping me updated at every stage of the process.

We wholeheartedly recommend Kate Campbell-Gunn

I highly recommend Kate Campbell-Gunn.
I contacted Kate at a time where, due to clinical negligence, I had no trust in professionals and was extremely traumatised. Straight away I felt at ease with Kate, I trusted her, felt her empathy and knew she would do all she could do help. She worked so hard for us in what ended up being a three year case, always keeping us up to date, advising on next steps and putting us in touch with the best clinical experts. Often in sensitive cases involving childbirth, PTSD causes a lot of self-blame and guilt. Kate knew that the admittance of negligence was vital for us, and she achieved this as well as a settlement far beyond what we were expecting. In short, I am so happy I got in touch with Kate and trusted her to work on our case.. doing so was life changing. Thank you Kate, we are so grateful.

Excellent outcome for a complex case.

Kate was extremely dedicated and determined to achieving a positive outcome for what was a lengthy and complex case.
I would highly recommend Wilkes Partnership for acting on medical negligence claims, they are both professionall and understanding of the clients needs.
They also offer a direct initial consultation unlike other firms that advertise on television.

I contacted The Wilkes Partnership Solicitors today in relation to a query about Court of Protection. I got a return phone call within an hour from Sophie who was very helpful. She took the time to explain my position and also took the time to check the facts and confirm with second call.
Most helpful. Would absolutely recommend for professionalism and speed of response
