My case was complex yet Fosters completed it all with such professionalism. Incredibly helpful and polite.
If it wasn't Fosters it would have been doubtful that I could achieve closure concerning my case.

My special thanks not only goes to Jazz and David but to the whole team at Fosters.

I highly recommend their services.

I found absolutely everyone that I spoke to from Lily, to Louise to Chris Brown, all extremely kind and helpful. It was a huge relief to speak to a firm who made an appointment for me with Chris very easy and swift (I'd had trouble in this regard with a firm that I had contacted before) and once I had had the meeting with Chris, felt like I really was being given the best advice with my best interests at the forefront of the discussion. Thank you.

We were very excited to welcome Gemma Armstrong and Angela Norton from Wellbeing Service to our office yesterday to present "The Menopause and Women's Wellbeing workshop", open to all staff members to attend. The workshop included the signs, symptoms and the impact of the menopause and introduce some techniques to help manage them. Most importantly its about supporting women to talk about this stage of their life and shining a light on this area of women’s health and wellbeing.

Look no further. Foster's are by far the best.

I have had the pleasure of dealing twice with Foster's and on both instances I have had an exemplary experience. David Gabell and Paige Gouldthorpe are outstanding in their job and made every process as easy as possible. Utterly superlative service..

Negligent

Recommend by Family & how right they were!!

Serena Djiakouris was a beacon of hope to me, at a time when my options appeared limited and the likelihood of a satisfactory resolution seemed nigh on impossible!! Not only was she able to represent me, the outcome was above & beyond my expectations, way beyond!! Nothing beats word of mouth, especially when it comes to Legal representation, Fosters were recommended to me by family who actually practice Law, I can honestly say I am eternally grateful they did. During an extremely stressful time, Serena made me feel at ease, it was in my mind a difficult complex case, I was super impressed with the proficiency, tenacity, expertise in handling this case for me. As I stated earlier, word of mouth counts for a lot, if you are in the unfortunate position where you require legal representation, remember Fosters, this had honestly turned my life around!!

My Experience with Fosters Solicitors.

My MP put me in touch with Fosters Solicitors in about May 2020. It was an incredibly harrowing time but Fosters were amazing throughout my four year journey. They were kind, empathetic, and stuck it out until they got the MHT to admit that they had failed in their duty of care and as a result of this my Son lost his life.

Positive Experience

I contacted several solicitors after experiencing a upsetting matter and wished to purse compensation. When I contacted Fosters Solicitors I was suitably impressed, Chris Turner (Associate Legal Executive) provided invaluable initial advice, which was both helpful and practical, breaking down the process step by step.

Subsequently, I fully engaged with Fosters Solicitors and worked closely with Chris, who adeptly challenged the inappropriate actions of the other party. As a result of his efforts, we received an offer of compensation that was more than satisfactory, and ahead of good time - we promptly accepted it - a good result for what was a horrible experience.

I highly recommend Fosters Solicitors, particularly Chris Turner, for their professionalism, expertise, and successful outcome in handling my case.

Recommendation following car accident

I approached Fosters following a car accident in which myself and my daughter were involved in, they happily took our case on. At our initial meeting Lynn Satchell took down all the details and copied all our evidence. The case was passed over time to Taylor Walding who courteously introduced himself. Whilst the final outcome took longer than either myself or my daughter anticipated, through no fault of Fosters, they persisted in contacting the third party insurers and kept us updated regularly via email and phone. I feel thanks also should go to those members of staff behind the scenes ie secretary, reception as these are often forgotten about. I would have no hesitation in recommending or using Fosters again for any legal work I may need.
