We understand just how important the support and guidance Finding Your Feet provide to those living with disability is, which is why we’re proud to be one of their legal service providers, providing families with the legal guidance, support and compassion necessary at what's often a very difficult time.
We strive to ensure that we provide the high level of service our clients would expect from one of Finding Your Feet's legal service providers and ensure the best possible outcome to their case.
Highly experienced
Our highly specialist personal injury and medical negligence teams have been representing those who've experienced personal injury and medical negligence for decades, and have been involved in some of the most high-profile and ground-breaking cases.
Having worked with amputee charities for many years, we understand exactly what difficulties you face and we'll be with you throughout your case, every step of the way.
Strong reputation
We have a strong reputation for achieving outstanding results for cases involving amputation injury, as well as ensuring that the best available treatment and rehabilitation is also obtained. Independent legal guides such as Chambers and Partners and Legal 500 have ranked our teams highly over the years and consider many of our experts to be leaders in their field. Over the years, we've also won and been shortlisted in a number of prestigious legal awards such as the Personal Injury Awards, Manchester Legal Awards, Modern Claim Awards, Wales Legal Awards and the Liverpool Law Society Awards.
Medical team of nurses and midwives
Our team, which spans across Scotland, England and Wales, also includes nurses and midwives who are able to offer bespoke medical advice and guidance in addition to the legal expertise provided by our specialist lawyers in Scotland.
Treatment and rehabilitation support
In the majority of cases, the sooner that rehabilitation and treatment begins, the better the outcome will be. That's why we make it our priority when someone suffers a serious injury.
We work with some of the best case managers and treatment providers in the UK - not only to ensure that the treatment you receive is the best available, but also to seek early interim payments. This is a key part of our strategy to ensure there's funding to begin as soon as possible, giving you the best chance to maximise recovery and future independence.
No financial risk
The vast majority of personal injury and medical negligence cases are funded by a No Win No Fee agreement. This means that if you lose your case, there'll be no cost to you - so no financial risk.
