When the Stakes Are Personal, Generalist Advice Falls Short

When you are dealing with a bereavement, a serious injury, or harm caused by medical failings, the last thing you need is a solicitor who treats your case as just another file in a packed caseload. Yet that is the reality for many people seeking legal support at the most vulnerable moments of their lives. Large firms spread themselves thin across dozens of practice areas, leaving clients feeling unheard and uncertain.

Delays pile up. Jargon replaces clear answers. You find yourself chasing updates rather than receiving them. The emotional toll of navigating probate, pursuing a negligence claim, or seeking compensation after an accident is compounded by a legal process that feels cold, impersonal, and overwhelming.

The cost of inaction is real, too. Limitation periods mean claims can expire. Estates left unadministered create financial uncertainty for families. And all the while, the stress of not knowing where you stand quietly takes its toll on your wellbeing.

A Different Kind of Legal Practice

Curtis Legal was founded with a clear principle: do fewer things, and do them exceptionally well. The firm handles only three areas of law: personal injury, medical negligence, and probate. No conveyancing, no family disputes, no commercial contracts. This deliberate focus means every case benefits from deep specialist knowledge rather than a generalist approach spread too thinly.

What makes Curtis Legal genuinely different is who handles your case. Directors Simon Jenkins and Rhiannon Jenkins are both practising solicitors who personally oversee client matters from first conversation to resolution. You will never be passed between junior staff or anonymous case-handlers. When you call, you speak to the person responsible for your case.

Simon Jenkins, Director and Solicitor at Curtis Legal

The firm is authorised and regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA No. 00628041), meaning it is held to the highest professional standards. For medical negligence and personal injury claims, Curtis Legal operates on a no-win no-fee basis: there are no upfront costs, and you pay nothing if your claim does not succeed.

For probate and estate administration, the first conversation is always free and carries absolutely no obligation. You leave that conversation better informed, regardless of whether you choose to proceed.

Three Areas of Expertise, One Focused Firm

Curtis Legal's entire practice is built around these three specialisms, ensuring every client receives the depth of knowledge their case demands.

Personal Injury Claims

Injured through no fault of your own? Curtis Legal pursues personal injury claims on a no-win no-fee basis, covering road traffic accidents, serious and fatal injuries, public liability, and accidents at work. You can seek the compensation you deserve without financial risk.

Medical Negligence

When medical treatment falls below an acceptable standard and causes harm, you deserve answers and fair redress. Curtis Legal handles cases involving pressure sores, sepsis, misdiagnosis, and more with sensitivity and specialist expertise.

Probate & Estate Administration

Dealing with a loved one's estate can be overwhelming. Curtis Legal's solicitors manage the probate process from applying for the Grant of Probate through to distributing the estate, giving you clarity and peace of mind at a difficult time.

Meet Your Solicitors

At many firms, you speak with a receptionist, wait for a callback, and end up dealing with whoever happens to be available. Curtis Legal takes a fundamentally different approach. From the very first conversation, your case is handled by a named solicitor-director who stays with you from start to finish.

Simon Jenkins and Rhiannon Jenkins are both directors and practising solicitors. They bring genuine compassion and decades of combined experience to every client they serve, whether guiding a family through probate, pursuing a medical negligence claim, or fighting for fair compensation after an accident at work.

Getting Started Is Straightforward

There are no lengthy forms to complete and no pressure to commit. Here is how it works:

1. Speak with a solicitor, free of charge. Your first conversation costs nothing and commits you to nothing. A specialist solicitor will listen to the details of your situation, explain whether you have a viable claim or a clear route forward, and answer any questions in plain English.

2. Receive a clear, honest assessment. You will understand exactly where you stand: the strength of your position, the likely process and timescales, and any costs involved. For personal injury and medical negligence claims, Curtis Legal operates on a no-win no-fee basis, so there are no upfront costs.

3. Proceed with confidence, or walk away informed. Whether you choose to instruct Curtis Legal or simply wanted clarity on your options, you leave the conversation better informed. There is never any pressure.

No-Win No-Fee Explained

For eligible personal injury and medical negligence claims, Curtis Legal operates on a no-win no-fee basis. This means you pay no upfront costs to pursue your claim.

The terms are explained clearly during your free initial discussion, before you commit to anything.
