Simon Helliwell
Partner
Nobody argues more forcefully or more ably on behalf of their clients.
Simon is a Partner within the firm’s Personal Injury team and has been at Ison Harrison for over 25 years, predominantly dealing with personal injury claims.
He welcomes any personal injury claim large or small and has experience in Human Rights Act claims following Inquests; Complaints against public bodies; Professional negligence; Clinical negligence; General litigation; and even defending personal injury claims.
Notable sizable cases include the complex brain injury case in which over £3 million pounds was award to his client and the “iron man” case as set out in the links below.
Simon likes to give the personal touch and his attention to detail is exceptional. He has the ability to quickly identify the core issues of a case; apply the law; identify what evidence is required to prove the key issues of a case; he is not afraid to speculate and his negotiating skills are second to none.
He has lost count of the times he has taken over cases where clients have been dis-satisfied with their former Solicitors with complaints such as “they never call me back and we wait weeks/months for a reply”.
The last thing a seriously injured client wants is their case to be dealt with by a junior fee earner who is juggling a case load in the hundreds. In the personal injury department we all have manageable caseloads. By doing this we can focus entirely on each individual case; be pro-active rather than reactive; be aggressive when needed and never take our eye of the ball.
You will be our client and not just a number; you will be looked after rather than fobbed off and you will achieve a good or reasonable settlement rather than an under settlement.
In his spare time Simon likes to watch Leeds United and attend as much live music as possible. He is the proud father of two grown up girls who have caught the live music bug.
If you have any personal injury claim or other case that you wish to discuss or wish to transfer your case from you present Solicitor. Please telephone Simon Helliwell for a free consultation. He will be glad to hear from you.
