Nick's case experience

  • Secured a ÂŁ400,000 settlement for a client who suffered a fractured elbow and required surgery after a defective gate fell onto him at work. He was left with permanent neuropathic pain restricting his ability to carry out his role as a call controller and was forced to accept a role with a reduced income. 
  • Recovered ÂŁ220,000 in compensation for a client who worked for a large company with a placement outside of Europe who was injured when walking on site and tripped and fell due to the uneven road surface and poor lighting. The fall resulted in permanent damage and restriction to his shoulder. 

 

Testimonials

I would like to say a very big thank you to yourself for proceeding with this case for me. I have received the cheque this morning. Without your help I probably would not have continued with it as I thought it was going to be very difficult to claim. So thank you so much again Nick for acting on my behalf.

Nick's former client

My solicitor Nick Taylor managed my personal injury claim in a professional manner, keeping me informed as the months rolled by. He was kind and empathetic, especially when I wanted to give up. He took time to explain what stage the claim had reached and what would happen next. Nick made the process as easy as possible and I appreciated the friendly, concise and informative way that I was kept appraised of events. Thank you for your tireless patience and support. I would have no qualms in recommending you to my family and friends.
