Unfortunately, I am having to submit a Subject Access Request to get access to my closing letter so that the PHSO can pursue process. It's a shame they just blank you after you are no more use to them. Another firm who reviewed my case on contingency answered an enquiry six months later on the same day. They just disappear or are they closed permanently? I am very upset and medical negligence is not a great thing to go through.

My late father was a barrister, and as a result I have always had a deep respect for the legal profession. Sadly, my experience with Lyons Davidson has significantly undermined that faith.

Over the course of four years, communication has been consistently poor. Emails and portal queries have gone unanswered, telephone contact has been extremely difficult, and I have repeatedly had to chase for updates. My case handler has changed at least three times, resulting in a lack of continuity and accountability.

The medical assessment arranged felt rushed and impersonal. Due to the severity of my back pain, I sought a private specialist consultation at my own expense. Despite providing this report, I was informed it would not be relied upon. I also had to gather and supply my own medical records, which I would have expected my solicitors to obtain directly.

Although an award has now been agreed and paid, I am still awaiting receipt of the funds due to me. After four years, this is both frustrating and deeply disappointing.

Overall, the experience has been marked by delay, poor communication and a lack of client care. It has been an exhausting and disheartening process.

If your insurer appoints Lyons Davidson, request another solicitor. DO NOT USE!

After 4 years and three different members of the Lyons Davidson team Dan worked relentlessly to get me an amazing conclusion. He was thorough, patient and explained everything in plain English. Thank you Dan for the professional advice, support and understanding through a difficult time.

I would like to thank Caroline Fraser for all her help and understanding with my case which started roughly 18 months ago.
She kept me informed and replied quickly to any questions that I had either by email or telephone call.
I would highly recommend Caroline and your Company.

I was assisted by Paddy throughout my case and she was extremely attentive and informative. Always kept me in the loop and updated me promptly.

Michael Tait has represented me for a second time regarding a claim of victimisation against a large public-sector employer. Once again, he has achieved a successful result and throughout the process he has been greatly supportive. At times this has felt like a David vs Goliath battle, but through his hard work and professionalism justice has been done.

Lyons Davidson were helpful, knowledgeable and consistent in the support and guidance provided throughout the process, especially our lead solicitor Andy Vraitch. Although we waited over 3 years for a court date, they maintained regular contact and supported us to ensure that our statements were clear, concise and met the needs of the case. Thanks to the efforts of Andy and his team we did not have to attend court as the other party eventually accepted full liability and dropped all counter claims. Would highly recommend.

A calming and settling experience from start to finish as a result of Freya’s guidance and support. The communication has been excellent and any additional questions were responded to quickly. Freya was able to explain and put me at ease through a long and complicated process. Would highly recommend to anyone needing support and legal advice.

Jade was fantastic from start to finish helpful in every

Thanks very much for all your work on the issue I had. Freya was brilliant from start to finish and her communication was great! She always kept me informed of any information. Thanks again!

Had a brilliant experience working with Lyons Davidson, Nelay Joshi our contact guided us throughout the whole legal process, and his advice and expertise was invaluable.

Thank You Nelay and thank you Lyons Davidson.

Would highly recommend Lyons Davidson.
My case handler Freya Simpson was very professional and friendly and kept me informed throughout.many thanks Freya great job.

We dealt with a Chris Kemp, from the start he explained how long this could take, and through out the claim process has kept us up to date in a very timely manner. Any emails sent have always been responded to in a timely manner.Things have been kept in layman terms as often solicitors can talk in their industry jargon.

Lyons Davidson were really good, they kept me informed through their portal,Maya and her team were friendly and helpful throughout.It was just unfortunate that the insurance company that was dealing with my claim were very slow and we had to take them to court.I think 4years to decide on an car accident claim is excessive and should be looked into.The accident was on 16/09/2021

My experience with Lyons Davidson has been nothing short of appalling. Their handling of my case was careless, negligent and completely devoid of professional responsibility.

Despite being fully aware that legal proceedings had been issued, they failed to act. I was later informed in a telephone conversation that the firm had received acknowledgement from the court but did nothing with this information because they were “not getting paid.” That is utterly unacceptable. Payment disputes do not absolve a law firm from its duty to notify a client of life-changing legal action.

As a direct result of their inaction, a wrongful CCJ was entered against me. The financial and reputational damage this has caused is severe and ongoing. The stress, anxiety and sleepless nights that followed could have been entirely avoided had Lyons Davidson acted with even basic professional diligence.

To make matters worse, there has been no meaningful accountability and no appropriate compensation offered. The firm has shown a complete lack of empathy and responsibility for the consequences of their failures.

I would strongly caution anyone considering using Lyons Davidson to think very carefully. My experience has been one of incompetence, poor communication and a disturbing disregard for client welfare.

Great, helpful people with good advice and easy communication, always on time, fast with getting things done. Couldn’t be happier and could not recommend more.

Accident date: 27/03/2025
I am very happy with the result of my accident claim. Mr T Blake and his staff of Lyons Davidson Solicitors worked very hard and produced excellent result.
It was not an easy accident case but result of my case is brilliant.
Compensation is healthy. I have no words to express my thanks. Very Well done. My case was closed 16/2/2026.
