Thank You

I have dealt with Grant for about two years and my case ended with a positive outcome. All dealings with Grant (and all at Thompsons) have been professional and I was kept updated regularly and in layman's language too. I intend recommending Thompsons Solicitors whenever possible.

my most recent solicitor

My case has been going on now for a relatively long time during which I have had several case workers,sometimes I was not sure if it would ever be resolved. The most recent of which is Daniele Shanks. I could not fault her professionalism and hard work to resolve this case, and I am very grateful to her. I would recommend her.

Thomsons solicitors was used by my union (unison) when I told them about an incident at work. Nathalie handled my case and quickly managed to handle this. With the workplace this incident was at claiming full responsibility, this was a faster claim. She had mentioned, if I were to reject the offer I was given, I could get more money but since that’s not the reason for this, I went with the original offer. I can’t thank everyone at Thomsons enough!
