Professional Negligence
If you have received service from a professional which has resulted in either a financial loss or damage to you, it may be that you have a claim for professional negligence.
Helping you claim compensation when you’ve been let down by a professional
When you place your trust in a professional, you rightly expect a certain standard of service. Unfortunately, mistakes can happen and, if they do, the consequences can be costly, frustrating, and upsetting. If you have experienced financial loss or personal harm due to the actions or advice of a professional – such as an architect, surveyor, engineer, accountant, solicitor, or barrister you may be entitled to make a professional negligence claim.
Our experienced team of professional negligence legal advisors work closely with clients across the South East, helping individuals and businesses pursue fair compensation when professionals fall short of their duty of care. We understand how stressful these situations can be and are committed to making the claims process as straightforward as possible.
We provide clear, practical advice on the strength of your claim, potential risks, and funding options. Where possible, we aim to resolve matters early through correspondence, negotiation, or mediation, offering you a cost-effective and timely solution. Should your case proceed to court, we will stand by you every step of the way, working diligently to secure the best possible outcome.
Whether you have been let down by poor advice, breach of contract, or misconduct, our team has the knowledge and expertise to guide you through this complex area of law with professionalism and care.
Funding your professional negligence claim
Funding your claim is our priority, and we are committed to providing flexible solutions tailored to your needs. Depending on the nature, value, and merits of your case, we may act on a ‘no win, no fee’ or discounted fee basis.
Additionally, we can explore options such as third-party litigation funding or ‘after the event’ insurance. Trust and transparency are essential to us, so we provide clear cost estimates upfront and regular updates throughout your case. Our goal is to remove financial barriers and ensure your claim can proceed with confidence.

Professional Negligence Solicitors FAQs
The relationship between a client and any professional is based on trust, legal duties and contractual obligations. In any litigation claim, the basis of trust with that professional has already been damaged.
We aim to make sure that the relationship you have with us is clear, concise and understood by all parties and so we can work to achieve the desired outcome. As you will understand, any work done for you in a litigation case has to be paid for.
Ultimately, it is the client’s responsibility to meet these costs. However, there are various ways in which the cost of pursuing a claim can be funded. We aim to be as transparent as possible about our charges so funding should not be a bar to you pursuing a claim if your case is sufficiently strong.
Our specialist team are here to help you and guide you through the legal process. We pride ourselves on providing exceptional service from outstanding people.
