Adam Lloyd has been perfect at every step of the way. I am a part of a very risk-averse family and needed a very gentle hand throughout the legal process. He was patient, compassionate, and explained everything very well as many times as I needed it. Adam has made a massive difference for me and endeavored throughout this ordeal to keep me as informed as possible and to pursue the best path possible for me. I have no criticisms.
The level of Service provided by Kate Weston and the Team at BTT&J was exceptional. I felt they met all my needs to the highest standard, keeping me fully upto date at all times, with all actions being dealt with promptly and efficiently. I had full confidence in them and would not hesitate in highly recommending as the Solicitors to use for all your requirements.
Fantastic company to deal with!
The professionalism and hard work of Richard was outstanding. Despite a very long process, I was regularly kept up to date.
The outcome was very successful and was more than initially expected. Delighted to recommend, one of the best solicitors I’ve ever dealt with. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
We have dealt with Tyler on two occasions now. We couldn’t have asked for a more smooth, straightforward and painless process, all thankyou to Tyler. Tyler was at the end of the phone whenever we needed her and was able to answer all our queries. Would definitely, definitely recommend and we will look forward to dealing with Tyler again in the future.
I contacted BTTJ with a medical negligence claims when I was still grieving and being thrown medical jargon about my fathers unexpected death.
They were open and honest and helped me understand the options but also the limitations of a claim. They were there throughout the hospital investigation and inquest to talk through outcomes and explain medical and legal implications. It made a difficult and unknown process easier to navigate.
Sadly, and not through the fault of BTTJ, the payout was lower than we’d hoped but again this was fully explained, challenged and other options explored.
I felt fully supported throughout the process and trusted their judgement and experience. The best outcome for us as a family was to get an apology and BTTJ were able to get this formally for us which gave a sense of closure. Thank you for all your help.
“They said it would heal. Instead, I lost a part of myself.”

- Listen to your story and review your care timeline
- Help you understand whether the loss could have been prevented

Our Latest Success Story
Helping a Father Rebuild His Life After a Missed Infection Led to Amputation
Mr J visited hospital multiple times complaining of severe foot pain and fever. Despite the warning signs, his condition — a spreading infection — wasn’t diagnosed or treated quickly enough. By the time action was taken, the damage was irreversible.
Doctors were left with no choice but to amputate part of Mr J’s foot. The outcome not only affected his mobility, but also his ability to work, provide for his family, and enjoy the everyday life he once knew.
BTTJ supported Mr J in bringing a medical negligence claim. Our investigation revealed clear delays in diagnosis and treatment, and we secured £85,000 in compensation — helping him adapt to his new reality and regain a sense of control and stability.
