Why choose Slater and Gordon as your legal representative?

Cerebral Palsy Cymru was founded in the mid 90s by parents of children with cerebral palsy who were regularly travelling 300 miles to and from the Bobath Centre in Watford. Frustrated with how difficult it was to get specialist treatment for their children, they all made a pledge together to open a specialist centre in Wales and launched a fundraising campaign.

Cerebral Palsy Cymru has grown into an organisation that does amazing work supporting families by sharing knowledge and providing specialist care with a team of highly skilled physiotherapists, occupational therapists and speech and language therapists.

We have many years' experience representing those who have suffered as a result of cerebral palsy negligence, and handle cases with the utmost sensitivity and with great care.

As well as cerebral palsy solicitors who are experts in the field of medical negligence, we also have trained nurses and midwives on our team. We offer home and hospital visits and provide immediate representation and rehabilitation support.

We strive to ensure we provide the highest level of support and care to our clients and aim to achieve the best possible outcome for their case.

Highly experienced:

Our team of specialist medical negligence solicitors have been representing those who have experienced medical negligence for decades and have been involved in some of the most high-profile and ground-breaking cases.

Having worked with charities supporting those affected by cerebral palsy very closely, we understand the challenges you and your family may face and we will be with you throughout your case, every step of the way.

Strong reputation:

We have a strong reputation for achieving outstanding results for cerebral palsy medical negligence claims, as well as ensuring that the best available support and rehabilitation is also obtained.

Independent legal guides such as Chambers and Partners and Legal 500 have ranked our teams highly over the years and consider many of our medical negligence experts to be leaders in their field. During this time, we have also won and been shortlisted in several prestigious legal awards such as the Personal Injury Awards, Manchester Legal Awards, Modern Claim Awards, Wales Legal Awards, and the Liverpool Law Society Awards.

Medical team of nurses and midwives:

Our team, which spans across England, Scotland and Wales, also includes nurses and midwives who can offer bespoke medical advice and guidance in addition to the legal expertise provided by our specialist lawyers.

Treatment and rehabilitation support:

We work with some of the best case managers and treatment providers in the UK, not only to ensure that the treatment and support you receive is the best available, but also to seek early interim payments. This is a key part of our strategy to ensure there is funding to help support you as soon as possible, giving you and your family the best chance for a better quality of life.

No financial risk:

Slater and Gordon is able to offer Legal Aid funding on cases where a child has suffered from a neurological injury at birth or within the early neonatal period, such as cerebral palsy.

It is important to note that not all law firms are able to offer Legal Aid funding, but Slater and Gordon is an exception.

By funding your case through Legal Aid, there is no financial risk to you.

Providing a seamless end to end service for all your legal needs:

Additionally, as we are one of the largest law firms in the UK, we have dedicated experts in a wide range of specialist legal services who can offer bespoke expertise when it is needed. This includes services like court of protection and family law, in addition to an independent financial planning company, who can help ensure any compensation received lasts your lifetime and gives you financial protection.

Having these bespoke services enables us to provide our clients with an end-to-end seamless service for their legal and financial needs.
