How we help Unite members
As panel solicitors for Unite Legal Services, we act for Unite members free of charge when you need legal advice for:
Personal injury compensation claims
- Accidents at or away from work, including on holiday.
- Workplace injuries such as industrial deafness and repetitive strain injuries.
- Industrial diseases such as asbestos-related illnesses and vibration white finger.
- Road traffic and cycle accidents.
- Public liability and occupiers liability claims.
- Medical and dental negligence.
We also offer members' families a free service for all personal injury claims aside from injuries sustained at work.
Employment issues
- Settlement agreements.
- Unlawful deductions from wages.
- Holiday pay issues.
- Unfair dismissal.
- Redundancy.
- Discrimination.
- Maternity and paternity rights.
- And other employment issues.
As a Unite member, you and your family members will not be charged a success fee. This means that you will receive 100% of any compensation. Note that most other law firms that are not panel solicitors for Unite Legal Services will retain a significant percentage (as high as 30%) of your settlement.
Family matters
We provide our family law services at a reduced rate for members.
Other legal services
We can also help you with other legal services through our sister brand McDougall McQueen, including:
- Drafting a will for you free of charge and at a discounted rate for your family members.

What our clients say
- Heather Webster was a friendly, well informed voice who put things in a manner that was easy to understand.
P.M. - Thank you so much for all your help, Emily Allan. I slept last night for the first time in a very long time. I will especially miss my chats with Jill Bamber. All the best to you all, and I will be in touch about a further case.
M.H. - I would like to thank Gordon Milligan, Julie Harris and my advocate Alan Cowan for all the hard work that went in to winning this case for me.
