Hugh James

Our team of expert military solicitors is known as much for its tenacity as its expertise in military service legal matters. We carry on where other lawyers may stop, ensuring service men and women, as well as veterans, have access to the specialist advice they need.

Hugh James has been providing specialist legal advice and support to active service personnel, veterans, and their families for many years.

We work in partnership with military specialists and charities and engage in an ongoing series of educational, fundraising, and sponsorship activities.

Our support of the Armed Forces has been recognised and we have been awarded the Gold Ministry of Defence Employer Recognition Scheme for our work supporting the Armed Forces.

We recently won the Outstanding Case Of The Year at the Personal Injury Awards for our work on the military claim of Inglis v MoD. This case has implications for hundreds of thousands of people who suffer from noise-induced hearing loss as a result of their military service.

Our Expertise – Your Confidence

While you are serving

At Hugh James, we know that you have special needs while serving. Whether it is specialist wills advice, help if you have been mis-sold a financial product, advice on family matters, a civil compensation claim for an injury or harassment, or any other military legal matter, our team has the experience you need.

After your service

As a veteran, you view the world differently. You’re more likely to own a business and the discipline drilled into you during your service will now serve you. Our business team understands your unique approach to business and can help support you with contracts, employment disputes, or construction projects.

If you need to make a claim

Military claims are a very niche type of civil claim. You want a solicitor that has experience in getting the best results possible. Our award winning military claims team has helped thousands of military personnel and veterans get the compensation they deserve for the injuries they sustained during their service.

Serving in the Reserves

If you serve in the reserves, you are constantly balancing your military career with your personal and professional life. We appreciate the unique challenges faced by reservists and bring the same sense of balance to our approach to military legal services.

Whatever your legal needs, our specialist military team can help. Get in touch today.
