I was contacted by Andrew Zajac who was to look after my case over the next few months. His professionalism, attention to detail and personal service was first class. I couldn't recommend Leigh Day and Andrew in particular highly enough, excellent service throughout what was a pretty traumatic time, thank you for everything.
