Britain's roads are relatively safe. But there are still thousands of road traffic accidents every year, resulting in injury and even fatality to drivers, passengers and pedestrians. No matter how carefully you drive, as soon as you go out on the road, you're also at the mercy of the drivers around you.
Motorbike accidents are common. Bikers take a risk every time they ride. They are often perceived as reckless by other road users who fail to understand motorbikes and the way that they must be ridden in order to stay safe. Motorbikes get wiped out by the careless actions of other drivers who have simply not anticipated the presence of a motorcycle.
You can read about Tom's legal qualifications here. He has been a cyclist far longer than he has been a Solicitor. Tom is interested in all disciplines of riding. He is a keen road cyclist and enjoys training for and riding in Sportives.

I could not recommend Tom and HW Solicitors enough.
I had a small car accident back in 2018 where my car was written off at the hands of an irresponsible driver, not paying attention to the road. Tom dealt with everything on my behalf, kept me informed and secured me a satisfactory result and pay-out.
As fate would have it, in 2020 I then encountered a second, this time much more serious accident by an uninsured, hit and run driver in a stolen vehicle. On top of this I had 4 young children in the car with me. This was obviously quite a traumatic experience but I didn't hesitate to contact Tom

I was recommended HW Solicitors by a friend after I was involved in two accidents due to faulty machinery at work.
I spoke to Tom and he explained how everything would proceed in very easy terms down to seeing doctors, having scans, time scales, what difficulties may arise just everything really. I left the office not confused about anything and feeling like Tom had it all under control. I wasn't wrong, my claims were very successful but not only that Tom made the whole process so easy for me giving me options all the way through.
I am more than pleased with my outcome and would highly recommend

HW Solicitors were friendly and professional from the outset and gave me a realistic assessment of the likelyhood of potential success. Those qualities gave me confidence to have them act on my behalf and result in a successful outcome of my claim. David is an excellent communicator with a clear fee structure. I have no hesitation in recommending both him and HW Solicitors - I would use their professional services if I ever have need of legal support.
