Top 10 of 2,597 law firms for Bereavement Award, Personal Injury

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Bereavement damages are a specific sum recoverable by certain close relatives when someone dies as a result of another’s fault, under the Fatal Accidents Act 1976. A solicitor advising on this area explains who may claim, the amount (awarded to spouses or civil partners and certain dependants), and the process to obtain it. A solicitor prepares and files the claim, gathers death certificates and dependency evidence, negotiates with the defendant’s insurers, and handles any Court of Session or county court proceedings if needed. The claim sits alongside any wider fatal accident action.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The award is intended to recognise bereavement and dependency losses; if missed or miscalculated, dependent relatives may lose a potential remedy. A solicitor's professional safeguards include regulatory accountability, client money protection, and proper handling of the claim within time limits and Court rules.

Jeremy Horton

Tagged solicitor Jeremy Horton

Jeremy gave me straight forward honest information and advice. He was very knowledgeable on the subject and took our case over after we had received useless information from a local solicitor who had cost us dearly and basically told us to settle. Jeremey fought our corner and successfully got the case withdrawn. Efficient, friendly service. Always answered the phone and emailed back swiftly. Spoke in simple terms and explained things thoroughly.

Giles Dobson

Tagged solicitor Giles Dobson

I was recommended to approach Giles Dobson at Martin Tolhurst as I had had a bad experience with a Solicitor based in Rainham whilst undertaking a negligence claim. Mr Dobson gave me clear and practical advice during the initial meeting and his fairness and competence has carried on throughout the case which resulted in a satisfactory settlement.

I cannot thank you enough for everything you did for me. I am truly grateful for the great settlement you secured for me following my life changing injury at work. The compensation I received will enable me to access the treatment I need to help me in my recovery. I would highly recommend Kiran not only for her excellent legal skills and knowledge but also for her care and compassion.

Helen GradyJo Duggan

Tagged solicitors Helen Grady and Jo Duggan

Amicus Law….A really professional law firm headed by Mrs Helen Grady and (in my case) very ably assisted by Ms Jo Duggan. Their in-depth knowledge of my condition (asbestos related cancer) led to a very satisfactory conclusion which took 2 years of their time to complete. Along every step they kept me informed of issues and recommended solutions when necessary. They were always available and easily contactable. I highly recommend this law firm and would without any doubt use their expertise again if needed.
