Gavin Hughes
Partner, Military Claims Solicitor
I highly recommend Simpson Millar. I had a personal Injury claim that was not the simplest to claim for. However despite this, my solicitor Gavin Hughes dealt with this with the most professional and ideological approach. He always kept me informed with any updates and was polite and courteous. He cares about you as a person and not just a figure as some solicitors do. Thank you to Gavin and his team for helping me! Would highly recommend! Connor Moore
