Report
Awful and avoid at all costs. No communication whatsoever, complaints fall on dead ears, case handlers go missing for months and then one day you'll get an email you have a new case handler who is just as unresponsive as the last. Complaints made to main company but fallen on dead ears. Taken 2 years and no progress made despite third party admitting liability. Would be quicker to get a degree and train myself as a solicitor to sort it out.

I inadvertently came to use the services of Fletchers Solicitors following a non-fault car accident for a PI claim. From start to finish I received detailed updates from all members of the Team who all have been very professional and patient in all aspects of the claim.
