IRWIN Mitchell free will service

After contacting IRWIN Mitchell I received a quick response and an easy questionnaire was sent to me. A couple of phone queries to me were friendly and helpful. My will was sent to me for signing and is just being finally checked. Very good efficient service, would definitely recommend.

Irwin Mitchell and Massimo D’Angelo

Irwin Mitchell was recommended for us to use by a policeman after a bad accident. He said they were the best and he was certainly right. Massimo has been a huge support to me and my family. He has been so kind and considerate. Even when I didn’t understand the process and got upset. He would explain it all again. He would even ring back when my husband was here to explain it all again to him, making sure that I truly understood everything as my brain couldn’t always take the process in. Nothing was to much trouble for Massimo he went above and beyond for me. I can truly say if it wasn’t for Massimo I would have given up.
Massimo is a credit to your firm.
I can certainly be recommending Irwin Mitchell and Massimo.
Massimo certainly is dedicated solicitor.

Initial Advice from Catriona

I recently had an initial advice session with Catriona Ellis, which was provided free of charge, and I was extremely impressed with the service I received. She took the time to really listen to my situation, discussed the different options available to me clearly, and provided sound, practical advice throughout.

What stood out most was how professional, approachable, and responsive she was. She followed up promptly on everything she said she would and made the whole process straightforward and easy to understand.

I would highly recommend Catriona to anyone looking for clear, honest, and reliable legal advice.

Exceptional Support and a Successful Outcome

I recently instructed Irwin Mitchell in relation to an Employment Tribunal matter and cannot thank Céline Winham and Lara Massarella enough for their outstanding support throughout the entire process. From start to finish, they were professional, compassionate, responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable, providing reassurance and guidance at every stage.

Céline and Lara always took the time to explain everything clearly, kept me updated regularly, and made what could have been a very stressful and overwhelming situation feel far more manageable. Their dedication, attention to detail, and genuine care for their clients truly stood out, and I always felt that I was in very safe hands.

Thanks to their expertise, hard work, and persistence, a successful outcome was ultimately achieved, and I am extremely grateful for everything they did on my behalf. Their commitment to securing the best possible result was evident throughout, and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone seeking employment law advice or representation.

I would highly recommend Irwin Mitchell to anyone seeking legal support, and I am especially grateful to Céline and Lara for all of their hard work, professionalism, and commitment throughout my case.

Poor services

Told me what I could potentially get as compensation for my work accident which was a fairly large amount but ended up with less than half the lower part of estimate.They then took 40 % of that to cover my share of bill ,I had looked later elswhere and legally is supposed to be a maximum of 25% ,they then sent me a email stating they were trying to claim the costs from other party who had admitted fault at start asked me to confirm their costs but said I wouldnt be getting any more money when initially they had said in other emails I would once they had claimed from other party.So they ended up with nearly double what I actually got for my share of claim even though I said how is this fair in another email as I am the injured party which they never replied to shows how poor they are in my books .

Disappointing treatment from Irwin…

Disappointing treatment from Irwin Mitchell, twice. In the last few days of my brother's palliative care he was anxious to get some questions answered so he could sign his will. I called on his behalf and asked to speak to the Wills team urgently. They promised to call me back but never did.

I then emailed a signed copy of the will and asked for confirmation of receipt and that his file had been closed — again, no response at all. At an incredibly difficult time for our family, basic courtesy and communication were totally absent. Would not recommend or use again.

Holiday Illness Claim

We contacted Irwin Mitchell after suffering a holiday illness contracted in Egypt, and the service we received was excellent from start to finish.
Rachel Ballantyne was our main point of contact throughout the process, and she was brilliant — always helpful, professional, and kept us fully updated at every stage of the claim. Thanks to Rachel and the wider team, our claim was successful and we received compensation.
We would highly recommend Irwin Mitchell to anyone seeking legal support. They are a very professional, approachable, and supportive team.
Thank you very much. Ken and Alison.

From the very beginning

From the very beginning, Amie Minns at Irwin Mitchell has been outstanding. Navigating a medical negligence case involving my mum has been one of the hardest experiences our family has ever faced, but Amie has handled everything with professionalism, compassion and genuine care throughout.

She has always taken the time to explain complex legal matters clearly, kept us updated regularly, and most importantly made us feel heard and supported during an incredibly emotional process. Her empathy never felt forced, she genuinely cared about achieving the best possible outcome for my mum and our family.

What really stood out was her attention to detail, patience and determination. At times when things felt overwhelming, Amie remained calm, approachable and reassuring, while still being incredibly thorough and professional.

I honestly cannot thank her enough for everything she has done. I would highly recommend Amie Minns and the team at Irwin Mitchell to anyone needing support with a medical negligence claim. Thank you all.

Always there for us

Harry has been such a huge support to my brother and to our family. All the questions that we have and don’t know where to go with are directed to Harry! He has an understanding and oversight of all of the different elements, professionals and organisations in my brother’s life and helps us to navigate it all. He’s always there in the background, checking in on how appointments have gone and offering practical help. We feel we can be real with him and say things as they are. He’s empathetic, pro active and it feels like he’s our brain power when ours is depleted! We are extremely grateful to be able to call upon him whenever needed. Thank you Harry for really taking the pressure off and making us all feel supported.
