Solicitor at Girlings Personal Injury Claims Ltd
Jonathan Pidduck
Solicitor - Solicitor/managing director
SRA ID: 26009
Jonathan is Managing Director of Girlings Personal Injury Claims Solicitors. He qualified as a Solicitor in 1996, but has been practising Law since 1984 (specialising in personal injury work since the late 1980’s). He has been on the Law Society’s Personal Injury Panel (for lawyers with a proven track record in personal injury claims) since 1996. He is also a member of the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers, having achieved their “Senior Litigator” accreditation, and is on the Headway list of head-injury solicitors since 2014. Jonathan was born and bred in East Kent. He worked in Ramsgate from 1984 to 1986, Margate from 1986 to 2000 and Folkestone from 2000 to 2008. He is now based at our Canterbury branch. He is experienced in dealing with a wide range of cases, including head injury, employers liability claims, road traffic claims, occupiers’ liability and criminal injuries claims. He has conducted claims and appeals in the County Court, High Court, and Court of Appeal (for claims worth thousands of pounds to several million pounds). His caseload now consists almost entirely of claims for compensation for serious brain injury, and claims on behalf of clients whose symptoms from joint hypermobility syndrome/ Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (EDS) have been triggered or aggravated as a result of an accident. Jonathan places great emphasis on rehabilitation, so apart from seeking compensation for injuries, loss of earnings, care needs and out of pocket expenses, he also does everything possible to make sure that the insurance company pays for whatever private medical treatment may be necessary to help his clients make as full a recovery from their injuries as they can.

Fantastic Service
Having found myself in a position to require legal advice after contracting Legionella I chose Girlings based on clients reviews. I certainly did not regret my decision!
I found all members of staff extremely helpful, and my solicitor Jonathan was a credit to the company. He strived hard to get myself as much compensation as possible and kept me informed constantly of the progress. He was always very approachable and calm and sensitive to my condition and requirements.
My claim has now been settled with a very suitable outcome.

Slip and fall case resulting in a traumatic brain injury.
we can honestly say that every word wriiten below is 100% fact! Jonathan you from the very beginning put us both at ease. From spending hours in your office listening and helping us try and make sence of what we had been though. The offer of putting us in touch with Headway, (by the way that really helped us so much in the early days). Hours on Zoom calls or telephone calls during the whole of the Covid and lockdown period.
Then onto making sure that we would have nothing to worry about if we lost the case by putting into place a signed document that would protect not only our home but our assets and our emotional well-being.
Jonathan you really are an amazing human and have an incredible team around you! Anyone who has the privilege of you representing them will be very lucky indeed!! Thank you so much once again for everything. 🙏
