Testimonial from head injured client – £1.3 million settlement

“I was involved in a high energy road traffic accident, and suffered from a severe traumatic brain with a skull and base fractures together with traumatic intracranial haemorrhages.  During the litigation process it was difficult, however, Navdip Gill and Marcus Grant worked tirelessly absorbing the pressure from the insurance company and their legal representatives.

I was kept constantly updated and fully involved in this process with my legal team who took the time to explain everything clearly and patiently. Equally I would recommend anybody who has sustained a brain injury to contact this dynamic team who are extremely skilful in dealing with complex cases and seemed to thrive in pressured environments.”

Testimonial from brain injured client involved in RTA

I was involved in a serious cycling accident, sustaining a head injury. I became increasingly concerned about the handling of my case by a previous firm and switched my legal team halfway through litigation. I was very impressed by the speed at which Navdip Gill and Marcus Grant reviewed my case and their in-depth and up-to-date knowledge of traumatic brain injuries. This gave me a great deal of confidence in their abilities which they proved was not unfounded. They replied promptly to queries from me, always had the facts of my case to hand and had a clear plan. I can’t thank them enough for taking on my challenging case at the last minute, for managing it so well and for obtaining such an excellent settlement ” Dr C

"I wish to thank you Navdip Gill and Anne Maguire for settling my case. The money has provided me with security for the furture. I had fallen through a ceiling whilst at work fracturing my right hip. I spent 8 nights in hospital and I was in pain daily and unable to work for a number of years. I would not have been successful without Navdip and Anne's tireless dedication on my case."
