Review for Helen Sawyer, Sills & Betteridge LLP

I cannot thank Helen Sawyer enough for the exceptional support she provided throughout my medical negligence claim. From the very beginning, Helen showed outstanding professionalism and empathy. She kept me informed at every stage, always communicating clearly and promptly, and was consistently available to answer my questions without delay. But what stood out most was Helen’s ability to truly listen and understand not only the facts of my situation but also the emotions behind it. She approached everything with genuine compassion and integrity, while maintaining realistic expectations and a calm confidence that put me at ease. Thanks to Helen’s expertise, we achieved a positive outcome and, more importantly, uncovered answers that I would never have found without her. She has brought me peace of mind and a sense of closure to what was a deeply painful and uncertain period in my life. I would wholeheartedly recommend Helen and Sills & Betteridge LLP to anyone seeking support with a medical negligence claim. Helen is not only an outstanding solicitor but also a deeply caring and understanding person - a rare combination that made all the difference for me.

Highly skilled, experienced and compassionate solicitor

I wanted to email to email and highlight my gratitude for the services Martin Walsh provided me throughout my case. This was an extremely emotive time and I was undergoing a lot of testing and health concerns, Martin was very compassionate and empathetic throughout. I feel Martin is very caring, friendly and approachable in his manner, helping me to feel able to approach him about anything involving the case. Martin was always available when I needed his advice and happy to answer any questions I had promptly. Martin’s experience and knowledge of the law is exceptional, this was clear throughout the case, especially when challenging errors made by the other party and in resolving the matter proactively. Martin was assertive and direct, when responding to the other party, who is a very challenging character, this approach was definitely needed. I would highly recommend Martin and intend to use his services again when required. Once again, thank you Martin for the high quality service and support I received throughout my case

Louise, gave me a first class service. From start to finish. I got to know her a little bit over the many years my case took to complete. Louise was friendly and approachable at all times, she put a lot of time and effort into the process. She got a very good outcome, which I don’t think I would ever of got from anybody else. I would highly recommend Louise and the company to everyone I know.

Couldn't be happier with the experience I had with Louise bush. The medical negligence legal battle lasted around 5 years, but was so worth it for the closure my family and I deserved. Couldn't recommend Louise more.

Louise was brilliant on my case it was an unusual case and not straightforward and despite all the odds she didn’t give up on me and I could tell she has a passion for her work. She managed to get the best result possible, one that we didn’t think would happen. I am incredibly grateful for Louise’s efforts, hard work and dedication. The outcome has managed to give me the closure I needed. Thank you Louise.

What can we say but a huge thank you to Paul Toon and his team at Sills and Betteridge Skegness! The last 6 years have been a very stressful nightmare for myself and my husband in dealing with the effects of the clinical negligence my husband suffered and the subsequent stresses that perusing the claim gave us all. Top marks to Paul for all the hard work and hours he put in - all our perseverance paid off this week at mediation and gave us a better result than we expected! We are so relieved and grateful to you all! Huge thank you! Lorna and Mark Jackson
