Top 10 of 2,597 law firms for Against The Council, Personal Injury

Law firms ranked by client reviews

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.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

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.

Brian Tait

Tagged solicitor Brian Tait

I was involved in a road traffic incident in 2018 and needed legal representation. Finding good legal representation is paramount and can be a total minefield. I'm very happy to say I selected Morgan's Solicitors in Dunfermline and namely Brian Tait to represent my interests. I made an appointment and Brian and his team were very helpful, professional and easy to talk to. Brian was in contact and kept me updated all the way, providing me sound legal advice. Not only this i could not be more pleased with the outcome as he won my case and saved me from losing my driving licence. So a massive thanks to Brian and his team and I would/will highly recommend in him in the future. Many thanks brian tait im so very greatful. connor.

Chris Chappell

Tagged solicitor Chris Chappell

I was recommended ASD by someone who had previously dealt with them on numerous occasions, and I was not dissapointed! I hadn’t sought legal advice before so I felt out of my depth but all the staff at ASD guided me along every step of the way. I felt informed and in good hands and was updated at every stage of my claim. Richard initially handled our case and then it was continued by Chris and they were both so professional and very skilled at what they do! The admin staff are lovely and approachable and I would choose ASD every single time. Chris enabled us to access private support services relevant to our case to negate the long NHS waiting lists. I am so grateful to ASD for the successful outcome they achieved for me, and I will recommend them to everyone! The best solicitors firm in Sheffield!

Tristan Holdom

Tagged solicitor Tristan Holdom

Thank you for transferring my settlement funds to my account so promptly. As this will be our last communication I would like to thank you for all the work you have put into pursuing my claim, with pleasing results. I appreciate how you listened and acted on what I had to say and kept me informed throughout the somewhat lengthy procedure. I must say, at one point, I had resigned myself to a negative outcome but I hadn't reckoned on your perseverance! I will certainly contact you in the future if I require any legal advice. Your professional but friendly approach impressed me. Thank you.

Keith Holland

Tagged solicitor Keith Holland

Keith is an accomplished lawyer and more than that recognises the need to explain to clients the process, it’s potential to disappoint and reward. An adept ability to tailor the information by understanding his audience. I could simply not have faced the process without his expert guidance. His attention to detail ensured the right outcome, I will be eternally grateful to him.
