I was kept informed throughout by the staff at OCL and people were always helpful and understanding when I called the office.
The only reason I did not mark as a 5 was because I found it stressful that the other insurers dragged it out to nearly a year and the thought of going into a court. However very happy they finally agreed out of court.

I was kept informed and reassured throughout the lengthy process of a no fault procedure which was being contested. Everything was explained and I felt comfortable with all who dealt with me.

My case handler was dealt a difficult case with the 3rd party refusing to admit liability… she pursued this extensively; whilst accepting daily calls from me; due to the stress. She calmed my worry by setting set days to call me, whether there be an update or not (per my request). I do not underestimate that I was a “pushy” client, given the circumstances, that may be expected. However; she always remained calm, informative and reasonable. I have thanked her multiple times; but once again, I’d like to thank her for all of the above.

Bad advice bad service

You only provided the minimum claim and accepted the “expert valuation “ despite my explicit instuction that it was only a partial settlement. I was then forced to buy an inferior vehicle as I had no other means of transport. Aneqivalent vehicle would have cost about £3000 more.
You then advised me that any further claim would be an abuse of the court.
You then claimed £10000 fortune loan car - about 4 times the cost of a regular rental.
The whole process seems to be self serving to the detriment of the client.

I am extremely disappointed with OCL Solicitors

I am extremely disappointed with the service I received from OCL Solicitors regarding my car accident claim from 8 September 2023.

The accident was not my fault, and the other party accepted liability from the beginning, so this should have been a straightforward case. Despite that, I have experienced nearly 3 years of delays, poor communication, and constant chasing for updates.

After numerous phone calls, I was finally sent documents to sign on 07/05/2026 and was told that I would receive my settlement within 20 days. The settlement amount itself is only around £240, so this is not a large or complicated claim.

However, when I called again today (09/06/2026) for an update, my case handler, Bethany Hopson, informed me that although the compensation amount had been agreed, there was an issue with the solicitor’s fees. I was then told they would need to send another offer and that I must wait yet another 20 days.

How can a straightforward non-fault claim take almost 3 years to settle for just £240?

Throughout this process, I have had to constantly chase for information instead of being kept updated properly. The delays and lack of urgency have been incredibly frustrating and stressful.

I would not recommend OCL Solicitors based on my experience.
