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

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Bereavement damages in England cover a small, fixed sum payable to certain close relatives of a person who has died as a result of another’s negligence, under the Fatal Accidents Act 1976. A solicitor helps identify eligible dependants, gather evidence of dependency and relationship, and assess any funeral expenses or loss of financial support and companionship. They then prepare and pursue the claim to the relevant court, typically handling correspondence with insurers and, if needed, presenting the case in court to secure the statutory damages.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The award is a defined sum with strict eligibility rules and timelines. A solicitor’s role includes ensuring the correct parties claim, assembling evidence of the deceased’s earnings and the dependants’ reliance, and navigating any early settlement offers that arise, all within the statutory framework to protect a dependant’s position if the claim proceeds to court.

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.

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.
