We dealt with Richard Moon on 2 separate Court Cases both regarding Personal Injury Claims. Richard is very thorough and efficient with his work, he is also very calm and explains everything specifically. Treats his Clients in a very good manner.

Compensation Claim

Explained things all the time as required and took us through the case much quicker than our previous solicitor Moons solicitor knew which specialist doctors were needed and although took our case on at the beginning of the lock down still managed to get us appointments and get the case moving It was a good decision taking our case to Moons solicitors although our case has been very long and exhausting it has been well worth the wait in the end and I would highly recommend Moons solicitors

Many thanks for your kind review Michael. I am glad to hear we were able to be of help, and that you were happy with how things went. Nobody wants to be in the position to have to make an injury claim, but I hope that now everything has been completed you can put it behind you, and I wish you all the very best for the future. Richard

Accident Claim

I was recommended to Richard by another law firm who don't deal with No Win No Fee claims and I found him very professional throughout and was very happy with the result.

Thank you Leslie for your very kind review. Whilst no settlement can truly undo the damage, I hope it helps you to put things behind you, and to have the feeling that at least in some way things have been put right. Very best wishes for the future. Richard

The best Solicitor service. Very Professional and Honest. I had my car accident case done with them and I bet you cannot find the same one in the whole UK.
