Personal injury firm sees bumper referrals

A legal firm specialising in personal injury claims has reported record growth and increased its headcount as a result.

Gildeas Solicitors, which was founded in 1986 and has offices in Glasgow and Edinburgh, said it had experienced its busiest summer period ever after recording a 22 per cent increase in private referrals for personal injury cases compared to the year before.

Director Sanjeev Bali said: “We have made a number of robust strategic decisions in the past year, including a commitment to building better relationships with our clients from the outset.”

It has increased staffing levels to help cope with the most serious cases.
