Alex suffered a mild concussion after a car crashed into the front side of his car. After a frightening experience, we did our best to provide Alex with a stress-free claim and guidance from start to finish. Sandu worked as a welder but was not provided a mask by his employers. This resulted in Sandu being poisoned by carbon monoxide.

After finding us online, we helped Sandu file a successful claim against his ex-employers. Philip's home and work life was affected after procedures to his foot surgery were neglected. Philip filed a medical negligence claim against the hospital and we were able to help him win his compensation claim.

Scott Rees & Co is a legal law firm in Newton-le-Willows, close to Ashton-in-Makerfield where the Haydock Park Racecourse is located. We were formerly based in Skelmersdale but moved to our new offices at the end of 2017. We specialise in personal injury claims, conveyancing services, will writing and probate.
A personal injury is usually a physical injury suffered as a result of someone else's action. They can range from cuts and bruises to fractured bones and more serious injuries such as paralysis. Injuries can be acquired through a broad spectrum of accidents including accidents at work, occupiers' liability, medical negligence and more.
Exchange of contracts is the drafting of the legal contract by the seller's solicitor for both the seller and buyer to sign. Until this contract is signed, either party can withdraw from the sale without any obligations. Completion or completion date is the day the transaction completes and money exchanges hands.
Medical negligence, also known as clinical negligence, is when a person has been given care below the expected standard. If you have suffered an injury, illness or other adverse outcome due to healthcare professionals failing to give you the appropriate care, then you may have a claim for medical negligence.
A will should generally be reviewed every 5 years and should always be done after a major life event. It should be written and signed correctly otherwise it may be deemed invalid. At Scott Rees & Co we have the expertise to provide you with tailored advice on all aspects of wills to ensure that your wishes are met.

They kept me up date at all times and helped me understand how things would work. My solicitor gave me advise all the way through like what to expect from the other said and whether I should accept the offers that were made to settle. I won my case thanks to my solicitor Charlotte and she helped to make sure that I was happy with my decision to settle.

No communication or update with claim. Claim handlers always on lunch or away when you call. Other staff members rude on the phone and dis-interested in helping. Forever promised a call back and no response to emails.
However, when they email you they want a response straight away and when they offer a claim figure its either take it or leave it, if you ask to decline the first offer you are told the time frame has passed and you basically need to accept it even though you have responded to them within 48 hours of receiving first claim offer. No further correspondence since.

Terrible solicitors. I currently have a whiplash claim with them. I started this claim 8 months ago. No idea what is going on. Have been passed on the 3 different people dealing with the claim. They feel like a COWBOY company!!!!

Very unprofessional!! NO COMMUNICATION!!
I have had a claim ongoing for 5 years with this company with a promise of 6 month resolution … they kept bugging me to take on my initial claim and quick for me to fill out initial forms but once they got the signatures they have had a lazy attitude to the case
I had to keep chasing for regular updates and gave up after a while as they kept fobbing me off
Kept passing it through numerous case handlers who kept asking for forms all over again
finally after 5 years and many case handlers later the case has finally been resolved and instead of providing

Melissa Hughes facilitated the recent sale of our property. Both my wife and I feel that she executed her responsibility well and moreover, to a high standard. She was friendly, approachable and communicative making the process an easier one for us as clients. We could not have asked for more from Melissa who clearly worked hard and in in a timely fashion to secure the sale of our property. I would definitely recommend her service to others.

We were allocated Melissa Hughes as our conveyancing solicitor at Scott Rees when we sold our house recently. From the beginning she was on the ball, a delight to deal with, completely professional, efficient and helpful. She weathered the difficulties of our problematic buyer and their solicitors with a calm and experienced ease and brought completion to our sale in a timely fashion. As far as we are concerned she is to be highly recommended.

I'd firstly like to thank Scott Rees & Co, especially mentioning my litigation executive Lee Givnan for being exceptionally professional and reliable, dealing with things in a prompt and professional manner at all times. Lee always ensured any correspondence were responded to in a timely manner, as well as always ensuring that I was up-to-date with any information needed. Lee's professionalism and the service provided was greatly appreciated and exceeded expectations. I couldn't recommend Scott Rees & Co enough.
