What our clients say
From the moment I went to Leigh Day everyone was very helpful and considerate of my situation. Ceilidh was a consummate professional dealing with my case but always had the time to talk to me if I ever had questions or I was unsure about any part of the process. Whilst I will not get the time back, I lost to being ill I was very happy with the settlement and grateful to Ceilidh for negotiating the figure I received.
