Road traffic accident with an injury needing a hip replacement

Very prompt response. Simon Adamson engaged and listened attentively to my parents and worked at a pace that my parents were comfortable with. He explained the process clearly and simply. Simon always communicated on a regular basis and was approachable and available. 10 out of 10 for everything he did. Very respectful and courteous and an asset to your practice.

Exceptional Support and Outstanding Service

Simon Adamson provided outstanding support throughout my mum’s personal injury claim following her Uber accident. As my mum is an international citizen, the case involved additional complexities, but Simon handled everything with exceptional professionalism, expertise, and patience. Throughout the entire process, he kept us informed, explained every stage clearly, and was always available to answer our questions. His communication was excellent, and he made what could have been a very stressful experience much easier to manage, despite the challenges involved. Thanks to Simon’s dedication and hard work, my mum’s claim was successfully resolved, and the compensation was received without any issues. We are truly grateful for his commitment, attention to detail, and the care he showed our family from start to finish. I am extremely grateful for everything Simon did for my mum and our family. His professionalism, dedication, and support were greatly appreciated, and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone in need of an excellent solicitor.

Over the finishing line

It was a slow start due to some incorrect date from the 3rd party, but then moved on a pace. I was impressed with the referrals sent. The psychologist was excellent. However the Orth consultant not to my expected standards bearing in mind i work in a hospital environment especially around Patient Experience. I think a fair deal was struck and appreciate the communications at every stage. Simon is level headed and even handed so felt i could trust his judgements.

Dispute Resolution

Probate ... resolving family dispute ... addendum

I would further add ... I found Daniel professional, pleasure to deal with; he had a tenacious approach and delivered a first class service. The outcome of the dispute has made a difference to my life.

Dispute Resolution

Probate ... resolving family dispute

Three siblings, two siblings against one, all executors of the will with fives issues to be resolved. Mediation was suggested by friends but none of the siblings wanted to pay £10,000+. One sibling contacted Slater Heelis regarding resolution, in particular property, and was referred internally to Daniel Stern, Head of Property Litigation - Dispute Resolution. He dealt with the solicitors representing the other two siblings and wrote the settlement agreement which the other two siblings signed. Family relations have 'normalised'. Friends who have been through complicated divorces insisted I get a lawyer, or end up with nothing, are delighted with the outcome. Needless to say I am glad Daniel was my solicitor as he absolutely resolved the conflict.
