Do not use this firm
If this is a solicitors that has been allocated to you for an injury claim CHANGE NOW.
After complaining to management about my case handler things got worse….missing paperwork, not returning calls for at least five working days, being told they hadn’t received paperwork then to told about a week later they hadn’t and didn’t know why they told me they hadn’t, in other words they lied to me.
They will not listen to you or your concerns, they will use Mickey Mouse “specialists” for reports.
When they received the offer from the other parties on my claim they didn’t even bother to tell me, also didn’t even bother to tell me that the other side had made payment to settle the claim.
Do not use and if you already have the misfortune to be using them write everything down and take notes like I have and push to finalise your claim as soon as possible.

Successful road accident claim
I was involved in a serious road collision while riding my bicycle, and the legal process that followed was long and often felt like a marathon. Throughout this complex journey, Kerry Smitheram from Lyons Davidson Solicitors was consistently supportive, professional, and reassuring.
Thanks to her dedication and expertise, my claim was successfully settled. I am truly delighted with the outcome and very grateful for all the help and guidance I received along the way.

Claim against Mr Md-m Rahman
Over the course of the claim (3 years), I have always managed to speak to LD solicitors promptly when required. Initially I dealt with James Chapman, and in the past year the case was passed to Andy Vraitch. Andy was most helpful and managed to provide me with the necessary information and advice to enable myself and my wife to attend Court and ultimately be successful in presenting our case.

Great company
My case was dealt with by Paddy Trouton at the Edinburgh Office.
After my RTA in December 2023 I was recommended by my insurance company to contact Lyons Davidson.
During my first visit I was introduced to Paddy who made me feel at ease and throughout the whole experience was helpful and kept me informed at every stage.
It was a long process which took over two years however Paddy dealt with this in a very professional way.
I would like to thank Paddy for her valuable advise and getting acceptable compensation for me.
I would definitely recommend Paddy Trouton of Lyons Davidson.

A great effort and outcome
A very challenging, and at times very difficult situation that was very hard fought and a great outcome in the end. Nelay Joshi handled our case with great competence and professionalism throughout his time dealing with it, having picked up our case part way through. Thank you so much for the work you put in and the great outcome you achieved in our favour. Your incredible efforts were so gratefully received by myself and my family. Thank you.

Quick responses, informative and great advice.
I would like to sincerely thank the Lyons Davidson team, specifically Sajida Abaidin. Since she took up my case, everything has been fast-tracked and handled very professionally. She has got the outcome that I was hoping for and I am very happy and grateful to have had her service, which I highly recommend to others.

I have rated the legal services I received from Lyons Davidson, Bristol highly because despite a lengthly period of time elapsing whilst my case was processed I felt reassured that my solicitor always had my best interests at heart. He was hardworking and in regular contact with me whilst he dealt with all of the complexities involved. I was listened to, given advice, he liaised with third parties and I never felt I was being a nuisance. All of which was important to me during a difficult time.

My dealing with Lyon’s Davidson…
My dealing with Lyon’s Davidson concerned a personal injury claim which by its very nature to over three years to settle. During this time we were in regular contact with 3 of their staff increasing in seniority as time passed. We were particularly pleased with Charlie F who was extremely helpful in handling early contact. Thank you, Charlie. Our final contact Dan F was great. So helpful, understanding and reassuring. Always ready to listen to me, explain a situation and offer valuable advice and finally negotiating an acceptable compensation for me. Brilliant. Thank you, Dan.
If these 2 people are representative of the company, I have no reservation in fully recommending it.

Superb
Having had a road traffic accident, my insurance company put me in touch with Lyons Davidson and Andy Vraitch was appointed to my case. Andy exceeded all expectations, the case was tiresome and frustrating as the other side were slow to respond with endless delays, but Andy always kept me well informed regularly as to how the case was developing and replied quickly to my frequent emails. Finally, the case has concluded and Andy managed to get it all sorted for me with a successful result. I cannot recommend Andy Vraitch enough, it’s been an absolute pleasure, and I would highly recommend him. Many thanks Andy for doing an excellent job and all the best for the future.

I previously had a successful claim with Lyon’s Davidson and through this whole process the communication was below par. Since then my partner who was a passenger in the car crash was trying to make a claim. They were numerous errors with his account, not allowing him to complete a claim form so we took this elsewhere as Lyon’s Davidson were useless in resolving this. I have since requested relevant information from my claim to allow me to obtain all relevant evidence etc and contacted Lyon’s Davison over a month ago for this. I was told this was passed over to the management team and I would hear back in 5 days. I am still waiting for this information and have had no communication from Lyon’s Davidson at all. It is completely unacceptable.

Abbie Ford has been fantastic
Abbie Ford has been not just great throughout my claim but went over and beyond to get my claim settled with Westmorland & Furness Council, who have been deliberately awkward.
Abbie has kept in touch throughout the claim, has chased the other sides solicitors.
she has been so pleasant throughout the process.
She is a credit to Lyons Davidson

Turned a Stressful Situation into a Smooth Journey
I couldn’t be happier with the service I received from Sophie Miller throughout my accident claim. From start to finish, everything was handled in a professional and efficient manner, and the whole process felt smooth and well-managed.
Communication was excellent at every stage—I was always kept informed, any questions I had were answered clearly and promptly, and I never felt left in the dark. What really stood out to me was Sophie’s empathy and understanding. She took the time to listen, made me feel supported, and genuinely cared about getting the best outcome for me.
Everything was dealt with quickly without ever feeling rushed, and her attention to detail gave me complete confidence throughout the process. It’s not often you can say a situation like this has been stress-free, but Sophie made it as straightforward as possible.
I honestly couldn’t fault the service I received and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sophie Miller to anyone needing a reliable, professional, and compassionate solicitor.
