Express Solicitors are particularly pleased to see Employers’ Liability Partner, Jon Andrews ranked as a “Next Generation Partner”.
Jon Andrews said:
I am delighted to have again been recognised in the Legal 500. I do consider it a privilege to spend my professional life helping injured people and training and developing young lawyers to carry on that same work. Since joining Express solicitors it has been a pleasure to engage in a business devoted to this work and focused entirely on achieving the very best results for Claimants. Obtaining damages for injured people can really change lives for the better and in my view is some of the most valuable work that lawyers can undertake. It is therefore especially gratifying to see the efforts of my colleagues and the very considerable talent and technical ability of this firm reflected in such a well-recognised guide to legal services, as the Legal 500. I am really looking forward to playing my part in developing yet further the fantastic offering here at Express and hopefully earning further accolades.
The UK edition of The Legal 500 is relied upon by millions as a reliable guide to the quality of lawyers and law firms. The Legal 500 rankings are applied after thousands of interviews with lawyers, barristers and clients. They provide a detailed qualitative assessment of a range of factors, including work conducted by law firms over the past 12 months, the level of experience and depth of specialist teams and an evidence based assessment of level of service to the client.
Two testimonials from the clients of Express Solicitors were featured:
‘All members of the team were unanimously understanding and reassuring, always willing to help and patient.’
‘Express Solicitors dealt with my personal injury claim with professionalism and compassion right from the first contact.’
Managing Partner, James Maxey said ‘We are delighted to see that the outcomes achieved for our clients have been recognised by our firm ranking again in the Legal 500. We are working hard to build strength in depth in all legal departments and deliver the best possible results for our clients, with the aim to be ranked even higher in the next Legal 500 within the fields of Personal Injury and Clinical Negligence.’
