Thompsons has a long and successful relationship with Unite the Union and is proud to be accredited as a trusted legal provider on its legal panel. 

Thompsons and Unite Legal Services secures hundreds of millions of pounds in compensation each and every year on behalf of injured or mistreated Unite members.

Unlike when instructing high street firms, members using Unite Legal Services have the guarantee that they will deal with an expert and keep 100% of their compensation.

We were responsible for helping Unite to successfully bring a blacklisting case against major UK construction firms, securing over £10 million for members who had been unlawfully blacklisted by the firms involved. You can learn more about our fight for justice in our video.

Thompsons really knew what they were doing and fought my corner to make sure I received compensation that allows me to come to terms with how life now is and to live as normally as possible.

Richard, Unite member

Although my injuries will affect my life forever, the compensation has helped me look forward and begin to move on with my life, and I can’t thank Thompsons and Unite enough for that.

Mark, Unite member

I’ll always be affected by my injuries but thanks to the backing I got from the union and Thompsons, I’ll be able to get on with life much better than I thought was ever possible when the accident happened.

Senga, Unite member
