Injury claim following a car crash

Had a referral from my insurance following an accident. Whole process handled by Gregory Taylor and although it seemed slow I was kept informed of progress and cause of holdup at all times ( mainly due to my employer not responding to requests) overall I was very happy with the service provided and would recommend Gregory to anyone else needing help.

Terrible

Terrible. They closed my case saying that I didn’t want to make a claim even though I have been emailed a case number stating my claim is now open and have a car worker. Even for an email stating o will get a medical appointment by 2/8. Very bad company who do not call you back

Funny how Carpenters Solicitors reply…

Funny how Carpenters Solicitors reply to complaints and not to those who, after an hour, or even two, or even four hours ago left shining reviews with no thank you replies forwarded by Carepenters Solicitors..
I question the authenticity of these reviews (without prejudice) and I also question how, why and in what capacity have they been helped so swiftly…?
I'm still waiting for my conclusion and award, after a long 43+ months and counting.
ABSOLUTELY UNNACCEPTABLE

Best possible service and advice.

From the outset I've had Carpenters and the brilliant Michael Dutton on my side. While in hospital for a month of major surgery my case was being carefully and skilfully handled with minimum stress for me. The level of communication has been extraordinary. Continuous updates, by phone, with detailed information and all of my queries answered.
I could not have wished for a better outcome. Thank you Michael, Ryan and Carpenters. You made it easy.
My accident was September 2025, my outcome less than a year later.

Simply Amazing,

Simply Amazing,

First thing you have to take into account is that this things take time and it won't help anybody you stressing about. They assured me everything is fine and explained to me in details the whole process and and options available. They did a cracking job and I am happy I had them in my corner

On behalf of Mr P Evans. I contacted Carpenters Group after being in a car accident in 2021. Reece James took on my case and has been very benificial for the outcome I got. I thank him for his patience over the years with having to deal with the long on-going issue with the other party dragging things out for so long. I highly recomend Reece and the Carpenters Group.

Terrible response times and customer service

I had an accident early December 2023. I have had an mri last September 2025 and am still waiting on the results 10 Months on. They continue to ignore any messages sent on the system and I am unaware of any further actions I need to take. There is no contact number to speak to my case handler. When I did get through to a helpline they transferred the call then hung up after 20 mins waiting

4 out of 5 - but mainly 5 star

I have only offered 4/5 due to my initial communications with the original case handler that was allocated to my case. He was appalling and NEVER replied to my emails and calls! It took an email to the MD of Carpenters to make things change. I was then allocated a much more professional and attentive person named Vicki. Since she took over my case I was kept informed and she replied to every email I sent and call I made. I would give her personally a 5 star review. My case is now settled and Vicki was instrumental in moving things along to its conclusion. Thank you Vicki!

Thank you for going above and beyond for me

I just want to thank carpenters solicitors for everything they have done for me over the years regarding my complex case. My case handler Lorraine was absolutely incredible. The communication was amazing, any questions I had Lorraine answered them in quick timing explaining everything I needed to know. Lorraine was always on the other end of the phone to put my mind at ease when I needed her. Lorraine really did go above and beyond for me and the outcome was absolutely amazing! Thank you very much! I truly would recommend Lorraine to anyone who ends up in an unfortunate situation like I did. Once again thank you so much

Car accident 12/7/2025

Over the past 12 months, Carpenter’s Group did an outstanding job managing my case. Their excellent response times and overall efficiency made the entire process seamless, and I am incredibly satisfied with the final result. My case was handled by Simon Taylor. (Intermediate Track Team)
