    After A Google search to find a solicitor to handle my medical negligence case I decided to use wake smith solicitors and I'm glad I did. Everything was fully explained prior to signing any paperwork and was kept up to date with regular emails and phone calls and can honestly say Dylan Friend and Scott Haslam were great and got me the perfect result.

    I approached Wake Smith with a possible clinical negligence enquiry. I found Scott Haslam very approachable and uncommonly professional. Although the case wasn't strong enough on a clinical basis, Scott identified other possible ways forward. He was incredibly reassuring, with great attention to detail. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the firm on the basis of this experience. Thank you.
