This area covers claims for personal injury or other harm caused by local government negligence in England, where the defendant is a council or other public body. A solicitor handles the case from initial assessment through court or settlement, focusing on liability, causation and quantum, and often dealing with assessments under the Civil Procedure Rules and public body damages frameworks. Typical claims include slips, trips, or injuries arising from defective services, road or pavement hazards, and failing to provide adequate care or accommodation.
The solicitor identifies the precise statutory duties and common law principles that determine fault, gathers medical evidence and records, and coordinates with investigators and local authority insurers. They prepare the evidence bundle, issue proceedings in the County Court or High Court as appropriate, and negotiate settlements or pursue trial strategies, all while complying with court timetables and disclosure requirements.

Lisa was so lovely and put me at ease. I have called soo many solicitors prebious for advise and got nowhere, but as soon as I started talking to Lisa, I could tell that she got me and was confident with what to do to help. I feel so much more at ease now, and have a plan going forward. She was so lovely , patient and very helpful

Tagged solicitor Jonathan Bridge
I have been a client off Farley’s since 2015 unfortunately the city I came from the solicitors would not prosecute children services, Luckily I found Farleys Solicitors and was introduced to Jonathon Bridge who went above and beyond’s to prosecute the people that let me down as well as making a CICA claim both claims ended up successful! I could not thank Jonathan & his colleagues enough for the help and work they have done for my case when no others in my city would even hear my case!

Tagged solicitor Sasha Marshall-Congreve
Ever since I first started discussing my mum’s claim back in early 2022 Sasha has been a pleasure to deal with. As the claim took quite a long time she always made sure I was aware of how things were progressing. I would have no hesitation in recommending Sasha to anyone in the future. Once again thanks Sasha for everything.

I had a great experience working with Bond Turner for my personal injury claim. After my accident, the entire team handled everything professionally, kept me updated at every stage, and made what could have been a very stressful process simple and straightforward. They were always available to answer my questions and fought hard to get a great result for my case.

Tagged solicitor Jane Penman
I have just had a personal injury claim settled with Russell and Russell and I highly recommend them from my own personal experience. The first day to the last Russell and Russell were absolutely fabulous, highly professional, answered all my questions and put my mind at ease. I cannot thank enough Jane Penman, Fiona White, and the assistance of everyone involved in my case. I would not hesitate to use them again for any legal matters I promise they will not let you down. Thank you Russell and Russell Rochdale.
