"From the very outset, my needs were a priority and Chris attended at my home in order to obtain details. Throughout the term of the claim, he was approachable and reliable and always kept me updated with the claims progress and any developments.
I would highly recommend Christopher Pridham of DW Harris to act on your behalf with any claim. In a society where customer care is no longer a priority, this is at the forefront of Chris's service when acting on your behalf which, for me, resulted in very satisfactory conclusion. Thanks for everything Chris."

“After suffering a serious Road Traffic Accident on duty whereby I was struck by a stolen motor vehicle I was put in touch with a team of solicitors to progress my claim for compensation.

After a considerable amount of time I was advised by them to settle for £2,000. I was unhappy with that decision due to the nature and long standing effects of the injuries I had suffered. Luckily a friend of mine advised me to contact Garan Treharne of D W HARRIS solicitors which I did and from that point the whole experience was completely stress free and painless for me. The company took care of everything from transferring all of the case files from the previous firm of solicitors and setting up all necessary appointments and medical assessments. After their intervention and obvious expertise in this area I was awarded three times as much compensation than I had originally been offered. I was delighted with their professional and thorough service and would thoroughly recommend them to anyone who has been injured in circumstances beyond their control.”

"I have now dealt with D.W.Harris for three separate claims and the service I’ve had has always been outstanding. On two occasions I was rammed by stolen cars and the other was by an uninsured driver.

On each occasion I was treated with courtesy, respect and patience and Richard Hopkins handled the cases with an assured expertise. He is very experienced at dealing with police officers and the types of incidents that we encounter and the whole process was handled smoothly and professionally. As a cop, I wanted someone I could trust to handle sensitive information in a confidential manner. That’s what I got and have no doubt that my compensation was maximised as a result."

"I would like to compliment D. W. Harris Solicitors for a job well done. I was initially reluctant to pursue my claim but a colleague recommended D.W. Harris as having served him well.

I subsequently took advice from the company and was immediately reassured as to the validity of my claim and the likely positive outcome. Throughout the ensuing process I was reassured and guided by the company (despite my personal reluctance to continue and eagerness to accept the initial offer of settlement), and I am pleased to say that I received a very satisfactory settlement. An excellent company which I would highly recommend to colleagues."
