We literally blogged just last week about Mr S settling his claim for £5,000 with us to highlight the difference between going with us – as specialist injury lawyers – and settling directly or going with any old law firm.

Well we’re pleased to say we have just done it again! In almost identical circumstances, Mr O has also just settled his whiplash rear end shunt claim with us for £5,000 as well!
