Simon A Holt & Co was founded in 1974 by Simon Holt. Caroline Marchbank-Caunce and Susan Ayre became Partners in 1998 and now head up the firm’s personal injury teams.
We are members of the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers, Headway and the Spinal Injury Association and have particular experience in dealing with cases involving serious head and spinal injuries.
The firm also handles clinical negligence claims and recently have been involved in numerous cases involving negligent cosmetic surgery.
The Firm founded and runs CycleAid an organisation formed in 1988 to assist cyclists who have been involved in accidents. We have successfully and regularly recovered compensation for thousands of injured cyclists to the extent of several millions of pounds.
A 24-hour accident line is in operation and experienced legal practitioners are always on hand to provide free initial advice.
The Firm also deals with claims involving other types of professional negligence.
In 2003 we recovered the highest award ever made to a UK citizen in a package settlement totalling in excess of £8 million. This was achieved in record time for the benefit of the client and his family. Through our experience in substantial claims, we were able to set up a team of medical and financial experts known to us from working together on previous large claims.
