From the outset, I found Gavin Allard to be patient, sympathetic and knowledgeable. He gave me the confidence to pursue this claim, and achieved a very satisfactory result.

Client

Gavin always took the time to explain each procedure thoroughly, even if it was complex and difficult for me to understand. He never seemed to mind that I asked questions, or requested further explanations.

Client

His patience and understanding was remarkable - I know I was a bit of a "basket case" when I first went to see him - in fact I think I was tearful the first few times we spoke, but he was kind and patient with me, which was exactly what I needed throughout this emotionally difficult case.

Client

I was appointed a truly outstanding lawyer, Mr Gavin Allard, who was incredibly understanding of my situation and worked with me explaining my best options and how to go about things on a step by step basis.
