Specialist abuse lawyers

Here to assist abuse survivors

Abuse can be physical, emotional and sexual. It can take many forms, including (but not limited to) intimidation, physical attacks, inappropriate touching, sexual harrassment and rape.

It can happen in many settings – a school or college, a workplace, a sport or youth club, a church, a residential care home, a social services facility or another type of institution. Abuse can have a profound, lifelong impact on victims.

Whilst nothing can change what has happened, a successful claim can help you to achieve a sense of justice, rebuild your life and move forward.

Every abuse case is different. With over 20 years’ experience representing the interests of abuse survivors, our solicitors will approach yours with the professionalism, sensitivity and understanding it deserves.

What our clients say

Chris Thomson

Chris Thomson helped me with a historic abuse case which was 45 years old and has done a really good job at getting an offer. He persevered even with the lack of evidence and the time scale and the abuser being dead which in my eyes makes him a superstar. Thank you for all the help I received I am really happy with the outcome.

Jordans Abuse Team

They have been thorough, professional and simply awesome. It might have been a long road we were on but every time I phoned for updates someone was always happy to comply. Having nothing but my best interests in the forefront.. we won! And it was so worth the wait.
