We will be forever Grateful to Mark.

Mark Hambleton was recommended to us following the road traffic collision that killed my beautiful nieces. My brother and his wife were so fortunate to receive this recommendation because as soon as Mark was instructed, he took it upon himself to ensure that we were fully supported in the legal process and had a consistent point of contact to lean on through all of the impossible moments we had to go through as a family. Mark is compassionate and reassuring and he has considerable expertise which meant that we as a family could rest assured that he was doing everything possible for our precious girls. We are eternally grateful to him for taking on our case and ensuring that we achieve some small justice for them. Thank you Mark, we would recommend you without hesitation to anyone feeling lost in circumstances like ours.

A truly Exceptional Lawyer and Human Being.

We can not recommend Roisin highly enough for the Exceptional, help guidance and support she has given our family throughout the claim following the road traffic collision that killed our beloved Maddie & Libby.

What stood out the most is that Roisin never made us feel like we were just another case. Her compassion and humanity was a massive help when things felt overwhelming. Under the most unimaginable circumstances we could not of wished for better representation, guidance and support. We want to thank you Roisin for everything you have done for our family. You really have been the most kindest person to us and your dedication to do the best for our family became our driving force. Your compassion, professionalism and unwavering support will never be forgotten. 🧡💜 We wholeheartedly recommend Roisin and her team.

Compassionate, Understanding & Won the case

I had contacted several law firms for an accident at work and many wanted the case on a no win no fee basis, then I met Louise Smith, compassionate, attentive and someone who showed understanding. I had a work accident which was traumatic and life changing and as such wasn't willing to give away a high percentage of the case settlement. Louise offered an ATE - After the event policy, which ensured I would receive 100% of the awarded damages, this gave me the reassurance I needed. Louise put together a team of experts, Georgia, Helen and herself who through out the whole process assisted me, showed me the processes required and supported me through the whole case, at times even when stressed Louise had the ability to ground me and settle me down again. Without any doubt her confidence guided me through the whole case. I'm very pleased to say that we won a significant sum which will ensure myself and wife are cared for the rest of our days. Thank you to Louise, Georgia and our barrister Michelle - I have no hesitation in recommending RWK Goodman

Personal and professional

Lizzie McCarthy, of RWK Goodman, represented me in a personal injury settlement case during 2025 & 2026. She was consistently professional, thorough, straightforward and always willing to answer my questions, however small. This was my first experience of such a case and Lizzie was reassuringly competent throughout, she was also fair, well informed and kept me regularly updated which was much appreciated. I would have no hesitation in recommending Lizzie and the team at RWK Goodman to anyone who needed legal advice.

5 Star Lawyers - Highly Recommended

I would sincerely like to thank RWK Goodman for all of their hard work over the past three and a half years. In particular, I would like to recognise the exceptional support provided by Roisin O’Dubhlaoidh throughout my claim. From the outset, Roisin was dedicated, professional and incredibly easy to communicate with. She was always approachable, took the time to explain the legal process clearly, and made herself available whenever I needed clarification or reassurance. The incident happened on 10 February 2023, when a large Alsatian dog attacked me, causing me to fall backwards onto the road. As a result, I suffered a shattered L4 vertebra and a serious shoulder injury. The claim was far from straightforward, as the defendant initially denied the incident. The early stages of the case involved gathering evidence and locating witnesses to the incident. As I am self-employed, my injuries impacted my ability to carry out business tasks. It was therefore essential to have a solicitor who took the time to understand not only my injuries but also how they affected my livelihood and income. Roisin did exactly that. Once liability was eventually admitted, she remained focused on ensuring the claim properly reflected the impact the injuries had on both my personal and professional life. Roisin also arranged consultations with the appropriate medical specialists, ensuring appointments were within a reasonable travelling distance from my home, which made the process much easier to manage while I was recovering. Over the course of more than three years, the defendant changed legal representatives several times, and there were occasions when it felt as though they were using delaying tactics and wasting time to try and wear us down. Their tactics felt underhand and I imagine would have been successful in exhausting some less well supported claimants. Throughout it all, Roisin provided consistency, continuity and unwavering professionalism. I always felt confident that my case was progressing as effectively as possible despite the obstacles. The defendant’s initial settlement offers were extremely low and appeared to be an attempt to resolve the claim quickly for far less than it was worth. Roisin remained focused on the evidence and the true value of the claim, providing honest advice at every stage. We stayed in regular contact by email and video calls, and I always felt informed and involved as things progressed. As the case moved closer to trial, Roisin recommended instructing James Marwick of St John’s Chambers in Bristol as counsel. This proved to be an excellent decision. Following service of the Schedule of Loss and several months of negotiations, we ultimately reached a settlement in June 2026 that reflected the strength of the case, whilst simultaneously avoiding the need for a trial. I would wholeheartedly recommend Roisin O’Dubhlaoidh to anyone seeking a personal injury solicitor. Her expertise, commitment and genuine care made an enormous difference throughout what was an incredibly difficult period of my life. I honestly do not know where I would be today without her guidance and support. Although this review highlights Roisin’s contribution, I would also like to thank the wider team at RWK Goodman for their support throughout the claim. Mark Hambleton and Caroline Johnson were always available to support if Roisin was on leave or otherwise unavailable, and I was impressed with their knowledge of the claim’s progress, despite not being the primary contacts for my claim. Above all, I always felt that the team at RWK Goodman genuinely cared not only about achieving the right outcome but also about my wellbeing during some very challenging times, and that meant a great deal to me. Thank you again.

Mark was diagnosed with mesothelioma at the end of March 2023. My first contact was with Helen Childs, and from that initial call, I felt that RWK was the right choice for us. Helen was friendly, kind, and compassionate. We met with Annabelle in April 2023 to discuss the industrial injury claim related to mesothelioma. I wholeheartedly recommend RWK, particularly Annabelle, for claims of mesothelioma. Her knowledge, kindness, and compassion truly shine through. Throughout the process, Annabelle supported us, often sharing resources and links on non-legal matters to help our family. Annabelle has a deep understanding of the legal and medical challenges involved for people diagnosed with Mesothelioma. We felt supported throughout the entire process. She took the time to listen to our concerns and answer questions thoroughly, which made our lives much easier during Mark’s difficult illness. Mark passed away in January 2025. Fortunately, his case was successfully resolved in December 2024, giving him the peace of mind that the legal matters were finalised. I'm truly grateful for Annabelle’s dedication to Mesothelioma.

A representative from RWK Goodman LLP responded to this review

Thank you for your heartfelt review. We're deeply sorry to hear about Mark's passing. It's important to us that during such challenging times, our team could provide the support and guidance needed through his case. Annabelle and Helen greatly appreciate your kind words, and we are humbled to have been able to assist your family. Our aim is always to offer our clients the expertise and care they deserve, especially in difficult circumstances like yours. Thank you for choosing us and for your recommendation.

I have now used Rob Collins (assisted by Elaine Glass) for a few property transactions (sales and purchase), the most recent being a sale of my London home and the purchase of another London house. As ever, Rob was excellent: responsive, helpful, on top of the detail and lovely to deal with. The purchase was not easy at times (not because of Rob or anyone at RWK) and I was so pleased to have them on my side as Rob jumped on matters when needed - without his attention to detail and willingness to put in some hard work, I am fairly sure the purchase would have fallen through. So, I have no hesitation in recommending Rob and his team and would happily use him again (next time will be the fifth time!).

RWK Goodman LLP

Thank you, Harriet, for your continued trust in Rob and Elaine for your property transactions. We are thrilled to have been able to assist you effectively. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Best Wishes, RWK Goodman.

Clinical Negligence

Exceptional, empathetic guidance from start to finish

"I cannot recommend Sophie Angwin-Thornes and the team at RWK Goodman Solicitors highly enough. Going through a clinical negligence claim is incredibly stressful and emotional, but Sophie was wonderfully caring, considerate, and helpful every step of the way. She listened to everything I went through with genuine empathy and made me feel completely supported when I needed it most. Sophie always kept me clearly informed, answered all my questions patiently, and handled my case with the utmost professionalism. Her kindness and dedication truly made a difficult process so much easier to handle. Thank you so much, Sophie."

A review for Argita Berisha

I'm super happy to recommend RWK Goodman Solicitors at Botley. Argita Berisha acted for me on the sale of a property, she is so efficient and professional, you feel like you're in a safe pair of hands. Between Argita and Izzy everything was dealt with smoothly from start to finish. It's helpful that the fees quoted at the beginning are what you pay at the end. I have used RWK Goodman in the past and will be doing so again in the future, you couldn't find better, a helpful, efficient and friendly Company. Thank you all.

from RWK Goodman LLP

We are delighted to hear that Argita and Izzy looked after you so well throughout your property sale. It is particularly pleasing to know that you felt confident in their care and appreciated the transparency around costs. We are grateful for your continued trust in the firm and for your kind recommendation, Terry.

Sophie (and her team) were excellent

Sophie was attentive, highly knowledgeable, and kind. She kept me fully informed at every stage, and even dropped me a message if ever there was 'radio silence' just to ensure I didn't get worried by the amount of time things were taking. She explained from the very beginning how long claims can take, and we were able to settle in a reasonable time, at a level we were happy with. I have already recommended Sophie to a couple of people, and will continue to do so.

Review for Roisin O'Dubhlaoidh

Roisin was absolutely wonderful throughout what was an incredibly difficult and heartbreaking time. She was always available at the end of the phone whenever I needed help or reassurance, and was consistently friendly, compassionate and approachable. She took the time to explain everything clearly as we went through the process, was very open and transparent, and always kept me fully informed about what was happening. Her communication was excellent, and I always felt that I was in safe and caring hands. Roisin truly went above and beyond, and I am extremely grateful for all the support she gave me throughout such a difficult journey. The same can be said for the rest of the team at the practice, who were always incredibly welcoming, kind and helpful. I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Roisin and the practice to anyone who needs their support.

We used Louis from RWK for the sale of our house, following a recommendation from our estate agent. Right from the start, Louis was approachable, responsive and helpful. We all know what a difficult process buying and selling a house can be, and ours became particularly challenging, with all sorts of hurdles to navigate. What really stood out for us was Louis’s approach – he brought a refreshingly different feel to the conveyancing process, particularly compared with others involved in the chain. He was organised and proactive, whilst also being friendly, down-to-earth and professional. We always felt we knew what was happening and that he was doing everything he could to keep things moving. We were genuinely very impressed and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him. We also really liked RWK’s approach of having a paralegal to assist, along with a dedicated completion team to handle the financial side of things. It felt like a really efficient and well-coordinated way of working. A big thank you to Louis, Joshua, Liam and the wider RWK team for getting us to the other side!

I cannot recommend Nicole, Lucy, Izzy and George highly enough for the work they did to help us buy our first home. From the first conversation Nicole was so personable and they are absolutely "on it" when it comes to getting things done. Even when we had a hiccup after our survey, they kept us in the loop the entire time. As first time buyers we really needed a conveyancer who would treat us with patience and kindness having never been through the process before and they went above and beyond. Won't use them for a while because we intend to stay in our new house for a long while, but when we do this process again we will 100% use the team at RWK Goodman. Thank you all of you!

We're genuinely delighted to hear about your positive experience with Nicole, Lucy, Izzy, and George! 😊 It’s wonderful to know they supported you during your first home purchase and were there for you every step of the way. Your appreciation means a lot, and we’re so glad we could help make the process smoother for you. Enjoy your lovely new home and remember, we're always here if you need us!

Professional, responsive and actually listened! I contacted RWK Goodman regarding the circumstances surrounding my mother's death and a forthcoming inquest.Although, after considering the information, they ultimately weren't able to represent me in a potential compensation claim, I was very impressed with how my enquiry was handled. Lily Arnold took the time to understand what I was actually asking, came back to me with sensible questions, discussed the matter with a senior colleague and kept me informed throughout. When the firm decided it couldn't take the claim forward, the reasons and next steps were clearly explained and I was pointed towards other sources of assistance. Having contacted several firms, the contrast was noticeable. Some didn't respond at all, while others appeared to make assumptions about what I was seeking or sent fairly standard responses without really engaging with the circumstances. RWK Goodman in contrast, treated a difficult and sensitive enquiry professionally, respectfully and as an individual matter. Although the outcome wasn't the one I might have hoped for, I wouldn't hesitate to approach them again if I needed this type of legal assistance in the future. Five stars for the way they dealt with me and my enquiry.

We're delighted to know that you had a positive encounter with our firm. Your feedback on our approach and handling of your enquiry is deeply valued. Even though we couldn't assist you further on this occasion, we're here to support you moving forward. Thank you for your kind words and trust in us.
