It is rare to find a solicitor who combines such personal touches and care for a client with outstanding quality of service. I feel incredibly fortunate to have had Gaggan and the BBK team by my side during one of the most challenging periods of my life.

I can say to this point in case they have been there surporting me. Julia very helpful and friendly. And have organised well to get us over the line. We won our part 36 .so technically the case is over. I did take advice from them but feel in my case. it right decision. I realise they are a business and have to earn money like everyone . Everything they said. They would do .. Case took a long time .but I think this quite normal under our circumstances. I have been awarded compensation and im hoping they deal with swiftly and put the cherry on the cake
It is important they make sure this is done after all the hard work they put in and what I had to go through. Julia allways ask me what I wanted to do. Yes she would give me advice but bottom line It my choice.
I would advice anyone out there who looking for a good solicitors firm to speak to these guys. I'm actually 24 hours away on flight
So that a big time difference but they managed it.
So well done big Thanks
Bolt burden Kemp .special thanks to Julia for she did for me.

I cannot thank Bolt Burdon Kemp enough for their help dealing with my medical negligence case against the NHS

Hannah Travis dealt with my case she was very patient, she really listened to what I had to say and showed me empathy.

I was kept updated through every process via emails, post, phone calls, from day one to the end of my case. Everyone who dealt with me were very professional

I would recommend Bolt Burdon Kemp to anyone who believes they have a negligence case. They certainly went above and beyond my expectations

Bolt bourdon kamp acted for me. Thay came in at the last minute so the case was difficult. They took it on against all odds. I had solicitor Heather petrie who was excellent she had a great understanding of my problems from a brain injury she was professional and sympathetic. I would highly recommend her. Later Hoffman wong helped the case. He was good too. I will highly recommend. Bolt budon kemp especially the solicitors mentioned. Heather also contacted me in her own time to keep me informed. I can't thank her enough at a difficult time.
