National recognition for Russell & Russell's personal injury department

29/09/2015

Russell & Russell's personal injury department has achieved recognition from a national campaign organisation for injured and bereaved people.

The firm's Bury office has gained ‘corporate accreditation’ from the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers (APIL), a not-for-profit organisation which works to improve the law for people killed or injured through no fault of their own.

“People maimed because someone didn’t take proper care, or relatives of those killed due to another’s negligence are entitled to compensation. We can help these people get their lives back on track and attempt to restore some sense of the life they would and should have had,” said Vince Pearl, partner and personal injury specialist at Russell & Russell.

The firm can now display APIL’s quality mark logo which ensures individuals seeking legal help can be guaranteed a high level of experience and expertise.

The association’s president Jonathan Wheeler said: “When they see APIL’s accreditation logo clients can be assured they are in good hands. Russell and Russell Solicitors has successfully fulfilled extensive criteria to prove a high level of client care and quality assurance. APIL will provide the firm with ongoing training and development in best practice, enabling clients to get the justice to which they are entitled.”
