I am grateful to both the union and Thompsons for all their support throughout the case. The end result is life-changing for my family. It means that my house is paid for now and, if anything else happens to me, the bills will be covered which is a huge weight off my shoulders. It has been a long process but a smooth operation. I would like to thank the team at Thompsons, who were very on the ball and kept me in touch from start to finish.

Ricky, UNISON member

I suffered a horrible injury as a result of medical negligence at Leeds General Infirmary. My solicitor presented an honest and realistic picture at the same time as displaying total empathy, and always made me feel she had time for my questions.

Jan, UNISON member

I cannot praise UNISON and Thompsons enough. They helped me throughout my battle and forced my employer to eventually accept that it had not done enough to protect me.
