Sadly, none of us can know everything about everything and so there are many times in life when we need to rely on a professional’s expert opinion, whether the specialist advice we seek is legal, financial, technical or otherwise sector-specific.
Of course, the vast majority of professional advice is given by trained practitioners who are fully-competent in their field but, in a few instances, acting on poor or careless advice can have serious consequences – from missed opportunities or wasted time to lost money or substantial costs – and under these circumstances you may be able to claim compensation for professional negligence.
When can our dispute resolution team help?
Our dispute resolution team is experienced in bringing successful compensation claims for clients who have suffered as a consequence of negligent professional advice.
In reviewing your case, we will take the time to understand the issues and listen carefully to your point of view. Perhaps the professional you consulted gave advice on a matter outside their field of expertise or passed the work on to a less-experienced colleague who lacked adequate knowledge, or perhaps you were on the receiving end of flawed or inadequate advice.
Our proactive and thorough approach has helped us achieve excellent results for clients, even in the most contentious disputes – we have brought successful claims against a variety of professionals including barristers and solicitors, accountants, architects, engineers, surveyors, builders, tax advisors, insurance brokers and media consultants.

Client Testimonials
I just wanted to drop you a quick email to thank you for all you have done for us regarding our daughter’s burn. You made the process a lot less scary for her so thank you for that and we are pleased with the outcome. Your professionalism and care for our daughter throughout was very much appreciated by us all.

Thank you seems such a trivial word and yet without your tenacity, we would not be here today. For all the medical providers you sought out and your words of stability at each and every stage I cannot thank you enough. You will never know how much of a difference you have made, without your constant reassurance and steps of transition to medical assistance especially during Covid I know I would not be at this stage on my journey.

I take this opportunity to thank you for the support, professionalism, and wonderful advice you gave us throughout this difficult time. It was a very stressful period for us as it was our first experience with the court. Without all your help and legal advice, I would undoubtedly have been in a much more precarious situation. Thank you so much for your support and hard work. On behalf of me and my wife I would like to say a big thank you for taking up my case and representing us as our legal counsel. When we thought it was too much to handle, you were there for us to give us strength and hope. We always found you to be very friendly when we needed any legal advice. Once again, I thank you so much for your understanding, for your patience, your dedication to my case and most of all, thank you for being friendlier, making us more comfortable with your advice and guidance than just a mere professional lawyer during that difficult moment. This means a lot to us, and we will be forever grateful to you.

Ian Oliver and Paul Lewis of George Ide Solicitors, and their appointed barrister, were outstanding in helping us defend an HMO licensing prosecution by a local authority. This was a complex matter which should never have been taken to trial by the local authority. However, thanks to the care, knowledge and tenacity shown by George Ide, the correct judgment was given. Thanks again for guiding us through this stressful experience.

On a personal note : Thanks for everything you have done, some may say you are just doing your job but the support you offered both in the structure you set up to get me fit again, as well as the emotional counsel you gave got me through one of the most difficult and frightening situations I had dealt with to date. I will certainly be highly recommending you to anyone else that needs such a service. You are a great asset to the firm and hope they know that!
