We are extremely proud to announce that both the Clinical Negligence and Personal Injury departments here at Potter Rees Dolan are once again featured in the prestigious Legal 500 guide, for 2020.

This time round, our Clinical Negligence team - led by Helen Dolan - has moved up the ranks from Tier 3, to Tier 2. This is a wonderful reflection of Helen and her department's expertise, hard work and pure determination to achieve the best possible results for our clients:

Potter Rees Dolan has a 'superb clinical team' under the leadership of 'redoubtable' name partner Helen Dolan. The group is recognised for its specialism in complex brain and spinal injury cases as well as surgical injuries, failure to diagnose cases and injuries requiring amputation. Lesley Herbertson and Gill Edwards were promoted to partner in March 2018, while senior solicitor Helen Budge joined from Slater & Gordon in May 2018 - Legal 500, 2020

While our Personal Injury department, led by Hugh Potter, has held its place for another year as a Tier 2 ranked department:

Name partner Hugh Potter leads Potter Rees Dolan's personal injury claimant team, which is particularly well-versed in dealing with complex brain and spinal injury cases as well as injuries requiring amputations, serious orthopaedic injuries and criminal injuries. The group also has expertise in matters involving accidents abroad, accidents in the workplace, road traffic accidents and fatal accidents. Key names in the department include founding partner Rachel Rees and Alison Hartley. Helen Shaw, Gary Herbert and Jeanne Evans were promoted to partner in March 2018, while senior solicitor Richard Edwards is also recommended - Legal 500, 2020

Head of Personal Injury and Senior Partner, Hugh, was also named as a 'Leading Individual' in the 2020 guide, while Richard Edwards - recently appointed to partner at the firm - has been named as a Legal 500 'Rising Star'.

  • Thank you. Excellent help and I got an outcome I didn't expect, so a big thank you to Peter Renshaw.

    Lisa Hathaway

  • TRUSTWORTHY FIRM I found Potter Rees Dolan through google search, and while I didn’t have much hope, it all turned out to believe there are still good people who help others. Peter Renshaw assisted me with my appeal. If he wasn’t there I probably never came this far and just lived my difficult life. However with all his professionalism and caring manner he encouraged me to appeal the decision, patiently explained the procedure and advised me all through the way. The appeal was allowed by the judge and this could not happened if Peter Renshaw did not support me with my case. I highly recommend PRD and specifically Peter Renshaw and his team.

  • Firstly, I would like to extend my gratitude and thanks to you and your team for the support you have given me over the past years to achieve this unexpected outcome. It has been such an emotionally draining process that, were it not for that support, I may have abandoned it... Once again, many thanks to all at Potter Rees Dolan. I couldn't have been in safer hands.

    GM, Manchester

  • I am completely blown away after the success your input has done for me. Now, instead of life not being worth living, I can take time to make a life with a difference. I will forever be grateful to you! I am very grateful to your firm and especially Mr. Renshaw for his simple instructions, patience and understanding. Having him as an advocate was everything and more than I could have ask for. Many thanks for what you do.

    Wendy Williams, Shropshire

  • One aspect which I value highly is that a promise to call will always be honoured. This may seem a small point but it is absolutely critical to peace of mind for the client. Communications, written and verbal, are always timeous, appropriate and well explained. As I develop below, each one of the team is invariably compassionate, understanding and empathic.This is of great importance to clinical negligence clients, who may well be facing life changing events, and not for the better. The Practice has a substantial and impressive array of medico legal contacts whose expertise they can call upon.  We have been impressed with their thorough work and pleased with their achievements so far in dealing with our claim.
