Legal 500 Editorial commentary
Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
‘Thompsons' have a dedicated foreign accident department and cover those areas of the law that many firms would not regularly deal with, such as maritime claims and offshore employment. They therefore have a much broader expertise in these areas than many regular personal injury firms.’
‘Martyn Gwyther is a long-standing practitioner in this area with considerable skill and knowledge of cross-border claims. He also is very pragmatic with good client skills.’
