Having used John Lowther many years ago with great success I managed to track him down to ask for his assistance and expertise again for another possible clinical negligence claim. John always provides the best skilled expert advise and to put it plainly he is great at his job he knows his stuff and will always fight for a good outcome if you have a case john will guide you from start to finish and will not mislead you in any way he is upfront and will advise you always of the best actions to take.
Client testimonial for John Lowther
I suffered a major injury to my ankle and went to A & E for attention. Unfortunately the severity of my injury was misdiagnosed and instead of receiving specialist care I was discharged. Following complications, I had to have major reconstructive surgery which would have been avoided had I received the correct care and attention to start with. I sort the advice of Slater and Gordon and they guided me through the daunting process of a claim. They handled my case with care, professionalism and attention to detail at all times. They kept me informed of the process of my claim regularly and nothing was too much trouble for them. We won the case and I was pleased with the outcome.
