Medical negligence case

Nadeem and associates have been excellent throughout dealing with my daughters case even after we tragically lost her, they continued to fight on her behalf to get the justice she wanted and to hopefully make changes going forward.
Nothing was too much trouble, you always got a reply promptly to any queries or questioned asked and they were honest with their answers, everything was for our benefit not for theirs.
Nadeem was kind and helpful and explained things in a way it was easy to understand.
I would highly recommend Nadeem Sarwar and Pattinson & Brewer and will always appreciate everything they have done for me on behalf of my beloved daughter.

Excellent service, very personal.

I found Daniel very pleasant too deal with. He was very informative, he kept me up to date with what was going on at every stage of the process. He explained everything to me in a way that I could understand. He was very knowledgeable about everything that was relevant too me. He's very good at his job. And if I ever need another solicitor I would definitely use Daniel again.

Outstanding Lawyer!!

I highly recommend Benjamin Wells as an employment lawyer. His exceptional dedication and expertise were evident throughout my case, where he went above and beyond to secure a result that perfectly suited my needs. Benjamin's clear communication helped me understand the intricate tribunal process, making the entire experience more manageable. His commitment to his clients sets him apart, making him an outstanding choice for anyone seeking effective legal representation.

I have had an impeccable experience with this firm and I had nearly lost my workplace injury claim through the Thomsons Solicitors as they had acknowledged their failure last minute because of this , I had changed my solicitor to Pattinson & Brewer and Frances McCarthy had helped me with this situation and I had received a favourable outcome of the situation . Even though , the situation still hasn’t come to an end with Thomson’ Solicitor however I am very confident with Frances McCarthy on my side . She is very amazing and responds rapidly to my queries so I strongly recommend this firm .

Extremely poor communication service.
I have no words to describe how slow they are to provide you an update.
What you don't want is somone working part time to deal with your case and ignore you every time you ask for an update

Is just something you don't need
