Partner - Chartered Legal Executive

Accepting new clients via ReviewSolicitors

Simon is a Partner within the firm’s Personal Injury team and has been with Ison Harrison for over 25 years. You can certainly count on his pro active approach and experience. He welcomes any personal injury claim large or small. Notable sizable cases include traumatic brain injury cases including a complex case that settled in excess of £3 million and the “iron man” case. Simon likes to give the personal touch and his attention to detail is exceptional. He has the ability to quickly identify the core issues of a case; apply the law; identify what evidence is required to prove the key issues of a case; he is not afraid to speculate and his negotiating skills are second to none. He has lost count of the times he has taken over cases where clients have been dis-satisfied with their former Solicitors with complaints such as “they never call me back and we wait weeks/months for a reply”. The last thing a seriously injured client wants is their case to be dealt with by a junior fee earner who is juggling a case load in the hundreds. In the personal injury department we all have manageable case loads. By doing this we can focus entirely on each individual case; be pro-active rather than reactive; be aggressive when needed and never take our eye of the ball. You will be our client and not just a number; you will be looked after rather than fobbed off and you will achieve a good or reasonable settlement rather than an under settlement. In his spare time Simon likes to watch live music and Leeds United. His wife is in the Ambulance service and is the proud father of two girls who have also caught the live music bug. If you have any personal injury claim or wish to discuss transferring your case from you present Solicitor. Please telephone Simon Helliwell for a free consultation. He will be glad to hear from you. Recent notable cases: £3,300,000.00 compensation obtained for brain injury client £850,000,00 compensation obtained for iron man Burn victim achieves settlement of £55,000,00

Personal injuries claim- RTA

I cannot recommend Ison Harrison highly enough. They have been incredibly caring, understanding and supportive throughout my claim, making what could have been a very difficult process feel much smoother and more manageable. A special thank you to my solicitor, Simon Helliwell, who has been absolutely amazing. He has always listened to me, explained everything clearly and handled my claim with genuine compassion. I have never felt rushed or pressured, and he has always been mindful of the impact the process could have on me. I am extremely grateful for Simon and the whole Ison Harrison team. Their professionalism, kindness and understanding have made such a huge difference, and I would wholeheartedly recommend them.

Simons tenacity

I must say Simon has handled my case with the greatest tenacity, considering the lack of reaction from the other party! He has done his very best to not only deal with my case, but keep me informed throughout the whole process. He has without any doubt got the client at the very foremost priority and is highly recommended by myself.

Personal injury claim - RTC

I would highly recommend Simon Helliwell. After I was run over on a zebra crossing by an elderly driver, suffering serious shoulder injuries, Simon took the time to fully understand what had happened and explained the legal process clearly from the outset. Throughout my claim, Simon was always quick to respond to emails and messages, keeping me updated and answering any questions promptly. His communication was excellent and I always felt informed about the progress of my case. Most importantly, Simon worked hard to negotiate the best possible outcome for my claim. I always felt he had my best interests at heart, and his professionalism, knowledge and dedication gave me confidence throughout what was a difficult experience. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Simon to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, approachable and committed solicitor. Thank you again for all your support and for achieving such a positive outcome.

Injury at work

My husband used Simon after he was seriously injured at work. From the very beginning, Simon was professional, approachable and always clear with his advice. He kept us updated throughout the process and responded promptly to any questions we had. His knowledge and guidance gave us confidence during a very difficult time, and his hard work ultimately helped us achieve a successful outcome. We are extremely grateful for his support and would highly recommend Simon to anyone seeking legal representation.
