The Right Solicitor for Your Situation

We work with specialist solicitors across the issues veterans face most. Every case is different, and getting the right advice early can make a real difference to the outcome. We start with MOD claims, then cover everything else you might need, from family matters to workplace disputes.

Every solicitor on our panel is a specialist in their area of law, and experienced in working with veterans specifically. That means less time explaining your background, and more time getting the right advice for your situation.

MANY VETERANS HAVE A CLAIM AGAINST THE MOD AND DON'T KNOW IT

Did your service leave you with an unresolved claim?
We can help.

Many veterans don't realise the full range of claims they can bring against the Ministry of Defence. Common claims include:

  • Hearing damage from ranges or machinery
  • PTSD or mental health problems missed
  • Cancer or illness from toxic exposure
  • Lung disease from dust or asbestos
  • Medical treatment that made things worse
  • Bullying, assault or harassment
  • Injuries from training or operations
  • Nerve damage from tool or vehicle use
  • Cold or wet injuries causing lasting pain

You may have a stronger case than you think. Our panel solicitors understand MOD claims procedures and have the experience to tell you where you stand. Call us or complete the form. The first conversation is free.

The Legal Issues Veterans Face Most

Not an MOD claim? These are the other issues we see most often among the veterans we help.

Family law

Relationship under strain, or already over? Time in service, the postings, the separations, the adjustment to civilian life after, can leave lasting effects on a marriage, even years down the line. We understand what military life does to a relationship long after the uniform comes off, and we've helped veterans reach fair, lasting settlements for their children and their future.

Road traffic accidents

Hurt in a road accident, during your service or any time since? Whether it happened years ago in a service vehicle or more recently as a civilian, many veterans we've helped have recovered compensation for their injuries, lost earnings, and the long-term impact on their ability to work.

Wills, probate and disputes

After a lifetime of service, make sure your family's protected too. Whether you need a straightforward will, or you're dealing with a disputed estate, we've supported veterans and their families through it, including when service pensions or historic military benefits are part of what's at stake.

Mis-sold financial products

Sold a pension or investment that wasn't right for you? Veterans have long been targeted by mis-selling, often around resettlement, but also later in life through pension transfers and investment advice. We've helped many recover significant sums, and where more than one person in the household has a claim, the amount can be substantial.

Also covered

Whatever Your Legal Issue, We Can Help

Didn't see your issue above? Here's everything else we help veterans with.

Immigration

Partner or family facing a visa issue? Marrying or starting a family overseas during service can leave dependants with complicated status years later. We've helped veterans' families resolve settlement and deportation concerns.

Workplace accidents

Hurt in a civilian job since leaving the forces? Civilian employers don't always match the safety standards you were trained to expect. If poor training or an unsafe workplace caused your injury, we can help you claim what you're owed.

Medical negligence

Received poor medical or dental care since leaving the forces? Whether from the NHS or a private provider, we've helped veterans who were misdiagnosed or left waiting too long for proper care.

Criminal

Facing a charge, court martial, or an allegation linked to your service? These cases, including ones tied to service related stress, need a legal team that understands military life. We do.

Employment law

Treated unfairly by an employer since leaving the forces? Whether it's unfair dismissal, discrimination, or a failure to make reasonable adjustments, we've helped veterans stand their ground and win.

Debt issues

Struggling with debt years after leaving the forces? The transition to civilian income doesn't always go smoothly, and problems can build up long after service ends. We've helped veterans take back control.

Public liability

Injured in a public place through no fault of your own? A slip, trip, or fall can happen to anyone, but time away or a service related injury can make the claims process harder. We're here to help.

Industrial disease

Exposed to asbestos, loud noise, chemicals or hazardous conditions during service or civilian work? We've secured the compensation owed to veterans with hearing loss, mesothelioma, asbestosis and vibration white finger.

Tenancy Disputes

Facing eviction or a landlord dispute? Moving frequently during service can leave veterans less familiar with their rights as a tenant. We've helped veterans reach a fair outcome.
