  • ‘Freeths are an excellent claimant clinical negligence department. They have good cases, which they fight tenaciously and do a great job for their clients.’

  • ‘Catherine Bell is a superb solicitor who manages her cases brilliantly.’

  • ‘Catherine Bell is exceptional. She is hard working, knowledgeable, very clever and always intent on achieving the very best for her clients. She is a birth brain injury specialist, and I would not hesitate to recommend her for a case of this type.’

  • ‘As a medicolegal expert I work with Freeths often and they are always efficient, helpful and courteous. They provide timely LOI and records and give clear direction. They care about and work hard for clients.’

  • ‘From my very first interaction to the point my case was closed I was treated as an individual. Every single person that dealt with me did so with a perfect balance of professionalism and sensitivity.'

  • 'There was always a speedy reply to my enquiries which I didn’t always reciprocate, yet this was never judged, and I never felt under any pressure or stress to comply with what was asked from me. This is because everything was explained clearly with pros and cons presented at each step which enabled me to make informed decisions and understand the importance of completing what was asked of me.'
  • ‘Before getting down to business they would always ask how I was. This might sound small and insignificant, but it makes a difference, especially when dealing with a case that I found traumatic. As well as being very client centred, they both chased, pushed and left no stone unturned to get the best and fairest outcome for the case. Even though I had their professional opinions I still always felt in control and felt like the ultimate decision was mine.'

  • ‘Freeths' clinical negligence team has a truly national reputation. They have been doing this work as well as anyone for decades.'
