Hiya hon, no personal experience of claiming but if you're looking for someone local to you, grab me on msn later and I'll do a local search and see who comes up.
Am a commercial property lawyer myself but know quite a few PI lawyers and they should be able to recommend someone good for you if you give me some more details :) xxx
