Can rest assured, in good hands.

Phil Storey is an excellent solicitor and provided moral support during a gender discrimination claim. He remained clear, calm and focused, ensuring minimal emotional stress to myself. I am extremely grateful for his assistance and would highly recommend him. My claim ended positively and Phil was clear throughout of the odds and work required.

Diligent, courteous, tenacious, highly professional.

Phil Storey tenaciously and diligently fought, on our SEN (Autistic) son’s behalf, for his nine month overdue Tribunal and High Court ordered EHCP therapeutic provision, against a contemptuous and highly arrogant LA. Phil made himself accessible, even when on leave, to advise us, update us and prioritise our son’s case. He got the job done, when we had all but given up hope. Without him, our son would still be languishing without his much needed ordered EHCP provision. We cannot recommend this kind and caring, approachable, but fiercely gladiatorial solicitor, enough. Thank you, Phil.

PHIL STOREY IS AMAZING

Phil Storey is amazing g. His knowledge and expertise secured my son a place in a SEN school. I can not thank this man enough and will be forever thankful to him. I can not recommend Phil enough. To anyone that is fighting for their child with SEN, don’t think twice when contemplating getting a solicitor. Don’t waste your time with anyone else, Phil Storey is 100% the man you need. Phil thank you so much for everything that you have done. You really are an amazing person.

Highly Recommend

I contacted Phil Storey as he was recommended by another parent who had used his services for a first tier sen tribunal. I’m so glad I did because it lifted a huge weight and burden knowing I had someone I could go to for advice and direction. Phil was excellent in his knowledge and advice but equally guided me so that I could still be in control of managing it which I feel was so important because it helps you to feel empowered. I had a positive outcome and the case didn’t have to go all the way to a hearing with a week to go! There were times I felt like giving up but having the support of Phil meant I could continue with it.

Above and beyond service and expertise in SEND law

The whole experience, from start to finish, with Bailey Wright & Co Solicitors was absolutely amazing and I would highly recommend them. A small company with a big heart, not a faceless corporate. I reached out to Phil Storey with a SEND legal case against my Local Authority and child's school for non provision of EHCP. From the first meeting, I had complete trust in Phil and his vast experience in this area of the law. He acted quickly, explained the law clearly, he was concise and consistent, he responded to emails and calls within a day and often within an hour. Phil was by my side for almost 12 months, he attended meetings and backed me up with legal letters to the LA when necessary. My daughter now has an EHCP which is clear, well written, legally binding and most importantly provides the education and resources she needs to thrive. We are delighted!

Phil Story - absolutely incredible!

Phil assisted us with an Educational law case. We were in the EHCP application process, we had a no to issue & I knew I needed help. Phil has been incredible, we got the EHCP, then the school we wanted & now the transport too! Phil has gone above & beyond, he really cares about his clients & you’re not just another case. I couldn’t have done this without Phil & I will be forever grateful for the amount of time & effort he’s put in to get us exactly where we needed to be. All legal terms I didn’t understand Phil explained to me in detail & he was always reachable & always came back very quickly to all my questions. My daughter now has a bright future ahead of her with the education she so desperately needs all thanks to Phil! Thanks so much Phil, if I ever need help again I will be back & I will recommend you to anyone I know.

On an all time low, trying to keep my head above water to get the support my child requires, yet constantly hitting brick walls, bad news and corruption! I was then recommended Phil Storey and I can only describe him as a Godsend. I echo all the positive words from previous reviews and a few which jump out at me are “Phil is extremely patient, professional, knowledgeable and efficient”. In addition, I truly think Phil is the first professional who genuinely cares and wants to help. I will be forever grateful for time and effort Phil has put in to get us where we are today. I would never be able to fight my way through this without him. THANK YOU

I was introduced to this service by a close family member almost 5 years ago.

I cannot commend Bailey Wright & Co.'s knowledge, and support in SEND enough, they are incredible.

This is my second time using their service and l honestly can put my hands on my heart to say they never disappoint.

I have 2 children with learning disabilities and they were both struggling in mainstream schools. The entire situation was heartbreaking and mentally draining for us all as a family. I felt powerless and mentally tormented to know that my children's needs were not being met.

Every dark cloud has a silver lining. Both of my children have been placed in schools where they are transforming and flourishing in their education.

As a parent, all l wanted was to give my children the best chance in their education and future. Without the legal support of Bailey Wright & Co., it would not have been achievable.

Thank you so much for bringing back peace and normality into my children's lives. I will always be grateful...☺️

I can assure you that all positive feedbacks are from paid people. My experience with a solicitor from this firm was awful. Late email replies, phone calls were not returned and incomplete information after 4 months wasted. Avoid them!

I cannot rate Phil Storey highly enough.
For the time, effort and patience he has shown I will be forever grateful.
All calls and emails were responded to with speed and I was always provided with updates and developments as they happened.
I believe that Phil genuinely cares for his clients and this is a rare quality today. My daughter feels that she has been heard for the first time and as a result of Phil’s help I’m sure she will go on to achieve her dreams.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Phil or the firm and I would just like to say thank you again Phil for everything.
