I (Brad) am a non-practising
solicitor.
I worked in a leading national firm (Lyons
Davidson) until founding Claims Financial in July 2007 to
assist consumers with legal disputes. My mission is to
help bring civil justice to the masses by 'getting the word out'
and putting together FREE Claiming Guides

circumstances. We would always recommend you seek independent legal
advice from a solicitor.
