Professional and emphatic throughout a difficult process …
Having been involved in a serious car accident I was advised to seek support and guidance by my insurance company through Lyon’s Davidson Solicitors. Throughout the whole experience I have been made to feel at the centre of the process This has helped me to overcome my anxieties associated with having to relive the incident. My contact Christopher Kemp throughout was responsive, efficient and understanding .Timelines were set out simply and clearly with my options explained carefully. Overall I was able to course a journey which ultimately concluded what for me has been a very stressful and unpleasant experience with an acceptable closure which has helped me immensely Overall as someone sceptical of the process at the beginning I have been pleasantly surprised how supportive and efficient it was, although it did take a long time to reach its conclusion . Thank you to all at the company but in particular Christopher Kemp for his diligence , patience and efficiency

I can't thank Lyons Davidson enough for their hard work and persistence in dealing with my case. I would like to personally thank Tia Parmenter for her hard work, especially at the start and overcoming delays. She was always available to answer any questions and queries, no matter how trivial.

Outstanding Para Legal Agent Elizabeth Ward low from Lyons Davidson
The Para Legal Agent Elizabeth Wardlow for Lyons Davidson was excellent from the moment she took over my case. She explained matters to me in an easily understandable way and took care of everything in my case of damages following a road traffic collision. The other side's defendants law firm, having admitting full liability then proceeded to drag the case out up to two days before a Court Hearing. Elizabeth was having none of it and secured their agreement to settle my claim in full.
Thank you so much Elizabeth!

Kerry Smitheram - outstanding solicitor, thorough, clear communication and excellent outcome
I can’t recommend Kerry Smitheram at LYONS DAVIDSON highly enough. Kerry was extremely thorough and considerate throughout my accident compensation claim, and she always made sure I understood my options so I could make an informed decision.
Communication was excellent — clear, well structured, and grounded. Kerry kept me updated, replied promptly, explained legal terminology and next steps in plain language, and followed up proactively with all relevant parties. Communication is key, and this made a huge difference when you receive it consistently.
Negotiations can be stressful, especially for someone like me who isn’t comfortable with that process, but Kerry had a realistic and strategic approach and I felt she genuinely worked in my best interest. The final outcome was more than expected, and I want to thank Kerry for her knowledge and professionalism in making this happen. Thank you, Kerry!
It is also worth mentioning that my case involved a handover (my previous solicitor left the firm), and Kerry took over seamlessly. She read the full history and arranged a very thorough 1.5 hour call to confirm the details, understand what was important to me, explain the options, agree next steps, and then followed through on everything.
The process overall does take time (as these cases do), but I felt supported throughout. Before switching to LYONS DAVIDSON, I had made the mistake of signing with another firm (NAL), and the difference in service was huge. Because of Kerry, LYONS DAVIDSON will be my first choice in the future. Highly recommended.

Great experience with this firm
Great experience with this firm. Excellent work from Kai Downey who always kept me informed of what was happening. I never had to chase anything up as I was always kept in the loop. They were on top of things and the complete process for me was done in a timely manner. Thank you for all your hard work.

Outstanding Service
I have no idea where to start, my case handler Sophie Miller has been nothing short but outstanding for the entire duration of my claim. She has constantly kept me updated, there was never a point where I felt in the dark, she was open and honest about the whole claim process and where in her professional opinion where she thought the claim was going to go. If I ever had any questions, I could email Sophie and she would reply to me usually within either the same day or at max a few days later. She always picked up her phone if I ever called and always made time to speak to me about me questions regardless of the fact she was likey very busy. She has worked tirelessly on my specific claim, arranging medical assessments, and liaising with third party companies for evidence, once she received the evidence she requested she always would phone me or send me a copy of documents so I knew where the case was progressing and what she had. My case went on for just short of two years, the fees that have been charged by Sophie for her time are extremely fair, and the sum of money that she had obtained for my successful claim is going to be a massive help to me. Words fail me for how thankful I am to Sophie and her colleague Oliver who have acted for me on this claim, and I would highly recommend her and this company to anybody who is looking to go through this process. To Sophie, I thank you and you are an absolute credit to your company.

Worst of the worst
Worst of the worst. Lazy lying scumbags. Never did any work on case unless repeatedly chased. Hirers "specialists" who discriminate against those with autism. Treat you as a criminal when your the innocent victim and have provide the case for them. Never answer their phones even to other solicitors. Will try to time out your case if you raise complaints, including by refusing to hand it over to new solicitors even after 3 month of dropping the case. Should be prosecuted and barred from ever working again for the horrors they inflict on their customers. Also actively conspires with Admiral Law as "sister" companies, while claiming to you their not connected. Never use them EVER.

Dragged our case out for so long ( best…
Lyons Davidson dragged our case out for so long (best part of three years), it gave the company we were suing time to go into administration, something I had warned them would happen a long time ago. We have been left destitute and broken, while these sloths shuffle off having made a tidy sum from our insurance providers. Think twice before you claim! Our insurance premiums have doubled since this claim was filed back in 2023. If only they could have dealt with my case as fast as they replied to my review!

Kelly held and understood my process and case more than most. She understood my neuro divergent needs aswell as the child I was protecting. Her communication was efficient and emails always clear. She was easy to talk to and understood me and my case brilliantly and it felt wonderful to have someone support and have my back like that. Thank you so much for all your help and support. I couldn't have done it without you.

RTA Un-insured Driver
I would like to express my thanks to the Lyons Davidson team, especially David Slader.
My claim following a road traffic accident with and uninsured driver was a long-drawn-out process, through which I was supported and updated every step of the way.
