Aim

Mark Thompson Law is a specialist personal injury and accident law practice.

The aim of this website is to provide information and explanation about the law and personal injury and accident compensation.

I set up the practice to allow me to concentrate on the cases which require my knowledge and experience.

The need to seek compensation always arises from difficult circumstances. I am more than willing to discuss your case without obligation or cost.

A solicitor’s role is to help put things right so far as the law allows.

I believe you need honest and straightforward advice. I will empathise with your position, and at the same time you will appreciate the need for a  businesslike approach. You need a clear view of your chances of success, how much compensation you are entitled to receive, and the time scale.

The more I can learn about you, the more I can help I prefer to meet rather than take details over the telephone. I like to see you at your home rather than across our desk. You will feel more comfortable, and the inevitable paperwork I need will be close at hand.

I will explain how the legal costs are paid, your financial risk, and the various methods available to protect you from those risks. I am happy to act on a “no win no fee” basis, under what is called a conditional fee agreement. My view is that compensation is yours, and I will not request a share of that compensation. I will make sure you understand.

Bringing the case to a successful conclusion is my aim, but help and advice along the way can help greatly. Making sure you are receiving State benefits and proper support from your employer can make a great difference. We will also help you understand any insurance policies which may help you such as permanent health and medical insurance.

Terminology is always a problem when you deal with a specialist. I will do my best to avoid it, but if I cannot help myself, just ask. You can see explanation of the terms used in accident and personal injury cases on the terminology page.
