I met Nicholas Fairweather back in 2008, following a tremendous surgical error. I was actually referred by a well known local GP, who suggested Nick Fairweather as being the finest medical negligence solicitors in the region. Nick immediately began looking through my entire case history, given that I was being treated for breast cancer and in his meticulous analysis and scrutiny of my past medical notes, he uncovered gross negligence of a local consultant oncologist and an ailing Kent cancer services. His accurate understanding of medical parlance demonstrated major disparities between clinical notes and exposed a dangerous consultant oncologist completely ignoring local and national good practice guidelines. His combination of professionalism and analytical prowess is tempered by both his warmth and humanity and he lead the charge in the proceedings. His actions lead to the oncologist in question being struck off by the GMC and he is no unable to practice medicine in the UK. Sadly I wasn’t aware that I had been mismanaged during the treatment, it was all a bit too late for me and now I am terminal, but the accomplishments of Nick had to the major reconstructing of oncology services in Canterbury and a total revision of local guidelines. I couldn’t recommend Nicholas Fairweather any more highly and his role in the trial has undoubtedly allowed many more women to live, where they would have died under the “care” of this renegade doctor.

Our case was taken up and successfully pursued by Fairweathers in a fuss free way (for us at least). The advice given was sound and clear, any difficult points were explained in a patient manner. Any potential pitfalls or risks were clearly laid out and evaluated. We were kept up to date on progress on a regular basis throughout a long process. All avenues open to progressing our case were evaluated and pursued when useful. (Mr G)
At all times during the process we were treated with the dignity and respect warranted by the situation. On the first meeting we were given all of the information on the procedures of the case in documented format. Each of the documents were verbally explained highlighting the pros, cons and costs. Following this there was a question and answer session where highlighted intricacies were further explained until a full understanding had been achieved. The only limit set on these enquiries was that the documentation had been fully understood by ourselves. In general there was a feeling of dealing with somebody that had the experience and cared. At subsequent meetings and during the hearing it became obvious that the firm had the experience that reinforced their reputation. (Mr H, Kent)
Nick has been outstanding from our very first meeting dealing with our case professionally and with empathy throughout. All deadlines have been met, scenarios explained and genuine, thought out advice given. (Mrs H)
Polite, caring people who understand and do best to find answers. (Mrs T, Canterbury)
Found Fairweathers through an internet search and initial contact was easily made online via your website and very promptly responded to. Very satisfied with all aspects and advice received throughout and as such would happily recommend Fairweathers Solicitors LLP. (Mrs P, Near Ashford)
Excellent service, my case seemed to end quicker that I had expected. (Ms K, Ramsgate)
Fairweathers stood by me through the whole ordeal and supported me when I needed it the most. I wasn’t myself and found it physically and psychologically hard to cope with what happened to me, I still do. But Fairweathers made the legal case easier to get through as I knew I had their shoulder to lean on and expertise and experience behind me. I thank their whole team for helping me come to an acceptable case outcome. I would highly recommend them. (Ms T, Kent)
